Free Spirit Floral Turquoise Heavy Satin Blackout Curtains Set Of 2 - (DS468A)

When selecting curtains, consider the window length, header style, and lining for light filtering to create a harmonious and functional ambiance. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you make the right choice:

Step 1: Measure Your Windows

Before making any decisions, accurately measure your windows. Different window lengths require different curtain lengths. Here's a breakdown of the height variants, the first value is the width and the second value is height

5 feet Window: Standard curtain length. (60 x 60 inches) or (1.5 x 1.5 meters)

7 feet Door: Opt for curtains that extend slightly beyond the door's length. (60 x 84 inches) or (1.5 x 2.1 Meters)

8 feet Long Door: Similar to the 7 feet door, but with a little extra length. (60 x 96 inches) or (1.5 x 2.4 meters).

9 feet Long Door: Curtains should be longer to maintain an elegant look. (60 x 108 inches) or (1.5 x 2.7 meters)

Step 2: Choose the Header Style

The header style of your curtains impacts their appearance and functionality. Two common header styles are available:

Eyelet-Rod: Eyelet curtains have a series of 5 folds and 10 rings per piece in a set of 2 curtains along the top, making them easy to slide onto a curtain rod.

Pleat-Rod/Track: The American Pleat style has 4 distinct 3-pinch pleats and 6 hooks/rings per piece in a set of 2 curtains.

Step 3: Select the Lining

The lining of your curtains affects light filtering and privacy. Choose based on your preferences and needs:

No Lining: Allows the most light to filter through, by blocking 30-40% light, offering a soft and diffused ambiance. Suitable for spaces where privacy is not a primary concern.

Cotton Lining: Provides moderate light blocking from 60-70% making it a versatile choice. Ideal for spaces that require a balance between natural light and privacy.
Blackout Lining: Offers maximum light blocking of 98%, making it perfect for bedrooms or spaces where you need complete darkness and privacy.

Step 4: Calculate Curtain Coverage

Each set of curtains covers a width of 5 feet. If your window width is up to 5 feet, one set is sufficient. If your window is wider, we suggest that you purchase 2 sets.

Step 5: Consider Height Adjustments

Keep in mind that you can request for an adjustment in height by up to 5 inches (0.4 feet). This flexibility allows you to tailor the curtains to your window's specific dimensions. Note that size changes require prepaid orders and are non-returnable unless received damaged.

Step 6: Place Your Order

With your window measurements, header style, lining preference, and any additional panels noted, you're ready to place your order. Ensure that you've selected the right curtain variant based on your needs and style preferences.

By following these steps, you'll be well-equipped to choose the perfect curtains for your space. Whether you're aiming for a cozy bedroom, a formal living room, or a contemporary kitchen, the right curtains will tie everything together while providing the desired level of light filtering and privacy.
