Our Smart Measuring Tips
- Always measure the full width of your curtain pole or track (not the window glass!).
- For a beautifully full, gathered look, choose a pair of curtains with a combined width that is about 1.5 to 2 times the width of your pole.
- The 'drop' is simply measured from the top of the heading (or the inside of the eyelet) right down to where you want the curtain to finish.
