Measure in 3 places across your window reveal for the width. Measure at the top, middle and bottom. Write your measurements below.
1 (top) ____________ 2 (middle) ____________ 3 (bottom) _____________
Take the smallest measurement, which is the narrowest width of your window. This is the width measurement you will need to provide. (I will deduct the allowance needed for the headrail and blind to fit appropriately in the window.)
Measure in 3 places across your window reveal for the drop. Measure at the left, middle and right. Write your measurements below.
A (left) ____________ B (middle) ____________ C (right) _____________
Take the smallest measurement, which is the shortest drop of your window. This is the drop measurement you will need to provide. (I will deduct the allowance needed for blind to sit just off the window sill.)
A. Measure the length of curtain pole in between the finials. If you don’t have a pole up already then it is recommended to do so before sorting out your curtains so that you can be as accurate as possible*. Ideally your pole would extend a minimum of 15cm each side, past the window frame to allow the curtains to stack back away from the window. If you wish to have floor length curtains then the pole must be in situ before measurements are finalised and any work started..
Width of pole ____________
B. Choose this option if you want your curtains to hang beneath the pole. This position is recommended for pinch pleat or pencil pleat headings. Measure from the bottom of the curtain ring, down to where you would like your curtains to end. This can be wherever you wish, usually this is windowsill length, to the floor or somewhere in the middle!
Drop of curtain ____________
C. Choose this option if you want eyelet curtains* or if you would like your pinch/pencil pleat curtains to sit at the top of your pole. Measure from the top of your pole, down to where you would like your curtains to end. This can be wherever you wish, usually this is windowsill length, to the floor or somewhere in the middle! *2.5cm will be added onto your finished drop to allow for the upstand above the eyelet.
Drop of curtain ____________
