how to measure curtains.

Wondering how to measure for your new curtains? While there’s certainly an art to it, the best measuring method for you will depend on a few factors – the type of heading on your curtains, and whether you’re using a curtain pole or a track.

If you’re fitting eyelet curtains (ring-top curtains that only fit on a pole), start by measuring the width of your curtain pole, excluding any decorative finials on either end. Next, place your measuring tape just above the top of your curtain pole. As this is where your new curtains will start, this is where you should measure the length from. Bring the measuring tape down as far as you want your curtains to fall. Read the full guide to measuring for eyelet curtains here.

If you’re hanging pencil pleat curtains or pinch pleat curtains on a curtain pole, keep in mind that you’ll need to use curtain rings to attach them. The top of your curtains will hang just below the pole as a result, so you’ll need to measure from the eye of the rings. If you’re using a curtain track instead of a pole, you should measure from the top of the track. For full instructions, read our guides to measuring for pencil pleat curtains and measuring for pinch pleat curtains

how to put up a curtain pole.

Whatever type of curtains you choose, and wherever you decide to hang them, you’ll need to start out by measuring and fitting a curtain pole or track. While all of our curtains can be hung using a pole, you’ll need curtain rings if you’re going with a pencil or pinch pleat heading. Eyelet curtains can’t be hung on a track, so a curtain pole is the safest option if there’s a chance you’ll change your type of heading down the line.

Your curtain pole or track needs to be at least 30cm longer than the width of your window, giving you plenty of space to open your curtains completely without blocking any light. Centre the pole above your window, and make sure it extends at least 15cm beyond the edge of your window on either side. If your curtains are made from a particularly thick or heavy fabric, you should allow an extension of up to 30cm on either side.

Deciding what height to hang your curtain pole at might sound like a small detail, but it can be the deciding factor in how your curtains end up looking when hung. Hanging your pole too low and close to the window frame will make a space feel small and restricted, while going too high and close to the ceiling will call for tons of extra fabric, and may end up looking a bit silly. Our recommendation is to aim for somewhere between halfway and two-thirds up your wall, between the ceiling and the top of your window frame.

how to choose curtains for the living room.

A good pair of curtains for your living room is always a good investment. Not only will they help regulate the amount of light and heat that can make its way into your home, they’re also a stunning style statement that can really bring a room’s look together.

The first thing to think about when choosing curtains for the living room is how much light you want to leave through. For brighter spaces that suffer from glare (or if you love a dimly-lit movie night), go with blackout curtains made with heavy fabrics like chenille or velvet. If you’ve got a north-facing living room that doesn’t get much natural light, look for brightly coloured drapes made from a sheer fabric like cotton. You can always layer up with blackout blinds down the line if you’d like more control over light levels.

Thinking about style, ensure you go with a curtain heading that fits with the rest of your decor. Pencil pleat and pinch pleat curtains are ideal for more traditionally styled spaces, while eyelet (ring top) curtains are sleek and contemporary. Eyelet curtains are easier to hang and give a wide, wavy effect when drawn shut; while pencil and pinch pleat drapes offer a neater look that fits elegantly with traditional and country-style interiors.
