2. Take Measurements
Measure all your windows to ensure you purchase the right-size curtains, drapes, and rods. Add between 8-12 inches to the width of your window to help you get the appropriate length of the rod. Understand that your rod needs to be installed about six inches above your window. Use these measurements to determine the size of your new drapes and curtains.
3. Install Brackets
Note that each bracket needs to be installed about five inches from the window frame side. Doing this will give you more room to open your curtains completely, thus giving you an elegant look. Use your stud finder to make sure the brackets and studs line up appropriately.
