    This was SO SIMPLE!!! I Love the "Curtain Math" rule. Basically, order 'up a size' from your measurements in length. Add a little bit (4" - 6") to each side so you have coverage on each side and so that when they are open they don't cover half of your window. If you want a fuller look order a larger width. GREAT!!!

    For those of you confused by this. When he talks about 2-4 panels he talking about if you want a curtain that opens from the middle then you need 2 curtains aka panels. If you want layered curtains like when you have a thinner, lighter curtain behind a heavier, darker curtain than you need 4 all together. Two of the lighter and two of the darker. This is for opening the curtains from the middle. If you only want to open your curtains just to one side then you only need 1 panel/curtain.

  • @mikecrowley3102
    @mikecrowley3102 6 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    What I think he's trying to say about the width is ;; Measure the length of the curtain rod and then order twice that length of material so as to have enough to enable you to gather the curtain with the draw strings .......

  • @BOC4ALL
    @BOC4ALL 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a window just over 46" wide. With the extra 12"(6 each side), the total is just over 62" wide. So 2 panels are still enough? I'm guessing each panel is equal to the width of the window.
    I'm just putting up the sheer voile panels, nothin fancy.

    For eyelet curtains you have to account for the curtain not stretching perfectly , due to the eyelets not being able to turn fully 90 degrees on the pole when fully drawn.
    Then if its a bedroom you don't need too much width because it will be dark anyway, - you are not going to be admiring any draping as you would in a living room.
    & you also don't want too much gather if you are restricted at the sides of the window as any excess bunch when open will block window somewhat.
    sorry if I have added to the confusion.

    So since that window is 40” add 12” (52”). That’s rod length and the length of each curtain? (Using two curtains). Meaning I I have a 40” window I need 2 panels each 52” wide?

    Whaaaat? Are you saying if you're window is 100" wide, get TWO (double)panels that are 100" wide??? My window measures 120"w, if I add 6" on ea side, total would be 132" - according to your calculations, I should get 2 (double) panels 132"w each??? Are you saying to double the window width with added inches and divide by 2 for the width of each panel? That seems like a heck of a lot of curtain!

  • @michaelcummins2464
    @michaelcummins2464 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I think you should worry about the rod size first by measuring width and adding 12 in (6 in to each side).
    For the curtains, if you have exactly 6 feet width, get 2 -4ft curtains for each side so it will give your curtains a stylish look. If you got 2 -3 ft curtains for one thing you would have light leaking in and also you would have them stretched out too much.

    • @michaelcummins2464
      @michaelcummins2464 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      And then measure your height and add i guess 6 in so you're not getting any leaked light like that either.

    I don't want 84 inches long. I want something that only covers the window and it's casing. There are electric receptacles below the windows and hot air heat registers and for that reason we can't use floor length curtains or draperies.
