Hang Curtains Off Wall Or Skirting

This gives an extremely clean look albeit slightly less formal.

Hang curtains off wall or skirting. The downside to hanging these curtains without damaging the wall was i couldn t hang them high. If your curtain falls either the adhesive didn t fully stick to the wall or your curtain may be too heavy for the hooks. Keep reading for the answers to your questions in regards to hanging your curtains. Run the curtain rod through the hoops at the top of your curtains and then hang it up again.

When you re determining how high to hang the rod itself it s really just a personal preference you can hang them so the curtains sit eeeeeever so slightly off the floor so they barely skim the floor or so they puddle a bit. I generally like mine to graze the floor just a bit somewhere between a skim and a puddle. If you can t get on board with the idea of your curtains touching the ground at all then opt for hanging them just a 1 2 inch above the floor. Gone are the days of ugly flimsy tension rods.

Perhaps one of the most involved ways to hang curtains creatively is to put them on slanted walls. The curtains adorn the walls and go all the way up to the ceiling in a tiered design. A tip to do this accurately is to hang the curtains on the rod and mark or pin them while they are already hanging. Draw the curtains and let them sit for 1 hour to make sure the adhesive hooks can hold the weight.

It goes to show that you don t have to just hang curtains around straight windows. I managed to hang them wide by placing the brackets on the edge of the window and allowing the rod to stick out further but you are stuck having to hang them directly on top of the window. To avoid using nails you can use one of the options listed above. String your curtain on the curtain rod and hang it up.
