How to Measure Your Window(s)
What you need to know about ordering Curtain Panels
First measure your window.
Rod Face Width
•Rod should extend 4" on each side of the window to acheive privacy.
•For panels to clear the window, calculate stackback of the drapery by adding 40% of your window size to determine your new rod face width. For example, if your window is 50" wide: 50 x 40% = 20 so 50 + 20 = 70" wide. Of course, thinner fabrics need less room while thicker/heavier fabrics may need a little more.
Returns
•The projection from the wall to the front of the rod.
Finished Length
•Standard or Conventional Curtain Rods - measure from the top of the rod.
•Decorative Rods - measure from the bottom of the rod.
•Standard lining choices are B-line, Challis, and Crest and are included in lined price. Click here for Drapery Lining FAQ >
Interlining, FR and Blackout linings are available for an up charge.

•Fullness: More fullness equates to more fabric used. To show more of the pattern, use less fullness. Use more fullness for a lighter weight fabric and less for heavier fabrics. For sheers, lace and lightweight fabrics, 3x fullness is recommend. Medium weight 2.5x and 2x for heavy and bulky fabrics. Fullness may also be affected by pleat style.
•Available options include applied trims, horizontal and vertical bandings, pillowcased hems, ruffles, attached buttons and many more.
