How to Hang Curtains Over Blinds

Must Read

Installing new window treatments can be a challenging project. If you are considering hanging curtains over blinds, there are a few tips you should keep in mind. First, measure the window frame. Start at the top of the window frame and work your way down. Then measure the width of the curtain, starting from the hem to the floor. If you’re hanging the curtains over studs, measure the studs and the distance between them and the ceiling.

Measurements Tips

In addition to measurements, make sure the window is level and the blinds are at the same height. Try to avoid using curtain rods that are too long. This will cause sagging. Instead, use wide curtain rods and decorative finials to cover the window. Depending on the type of blinds, you may choose to hang vertical curtains by wall curtains. For horizontal blinds, use curtains and a wide curtain rod.

If the window is high or narrow, use curtain brackets on the headrail. In some cases, adhesive hooks on the wall will look better with Venetian blinds. Be sure to install hooks that can hold five pounds each. If you’re using heavy curtain rods, you may need to place more adhesive hooks on the wall. Then, insert a third hook above the center of the window.
