Wow…thank you so much! I have a new home and I wanted to pic the right curtains because they do make a room. I’m excited to get started
If curtains is reaching the floor or just floating and almost close it, itlooks like garbage already, and the house looks like our garbage dumpsite, curtains should hang short at all times If you like your house to look clean and formal. Long curtains makes the house looks old and dusty better to just live in the street.
Thanks!
This is soo helpful!! I’ve been all over the Internet looking for curtain inspiration. I’m so glad I saw your video! This is sooo helpful. I’m definitely raising my curtain rods!
I *personally* HAAAAATE the puddled look. I think Kiss and Float look so so much better.
I know they aren’t considered as classy or trendy, but I think they look more elegant.
❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for your assistance, but I’m left with a question. Furniture! How should curtains change around furniture…especially in tight spaces? Primarily, the bedroom. The bedroom window arrangements place the night stands under the windows (around both sides of the bed). Should the curtains be short in this instance or would you suggest keeping them long like you said in the video?
Amazing info. Thank you
Was the video showing the correct way or the wrong way. It appears youare talking to people who understand the problems already
Hanging curtains too short had to be THE WORST! Loved this video
Thanks for your great tips! It drives me nuts when I see curtains too short😱
what about curtains for walls with a beam on top?
I felt you do not respect the audiences by not properly wearing your shirt.
Cant hem beacuse i have no swewing machine, cant iron because u have no clothes iron 😛
My husband dislikes curtains, is it ok if your window is 54 inches in length the drapes are 63 inches.
Nice!
This video just changed my life
Omg..i need to do some changes after seeing this

Your little dog, is way, too cute! Thanks, for all the curtain tips!
Excellent explanations! I want to hang my new curtains almost to the ceiling and have them kiss the floor but, I also want to add sheers. Do I hang the sheers at the same height or, would I, for example, use 84 inch sheers and 96 inch curtains ?
A like from india
In hall Our window is behind sofa. So which type of curtain should we use? Long or short?
Radiators, hotwater baseboard, etc. are often placed below windows as that aids in spreading heat. Cooler air is drawn from the floor over the heating unit and then rises toward the ceiling and outwards away from windows. Curtains and drapes can interfere with efficient heating as when closed they block the flow and spread of heated air. Covering hot water baseboard units with drapes is inefficient and if baseboard units are electric it can be a fire hazard. So we have a push pull between great design, efficient use of heating dollars and what is good for the environment, and safety. Shutters or blinds may be a better choice for some rooms. Also consider adding a heat pump to a room and not using the baseboard or radiators at all.
Hello- I love your style!! I really need some affordable white sheers for my bedroom. What would you recommend?
6:48 using a tension rod seems like it would not allow the ability to follow some of these rules since the curtain would be on the inside of the window itself.
Whats the best solution when you have windows that go to the ceiling and cant place curtains above them and the windows are eight feet wide so you cant just hang the curtains on the sides of the windows due to a middle piece ?
I needed to hear this! Great video!
Great tips thanks from Scotland 🇬🇧
I always thought the puddle look was so messy looking
I’m rewatching this. If I could Like again I would.
How do you style short windows? my windows are about 3 feet from the floor in the bedroom and 4 feet in the living room.
Very informative!!!!!
I love your sense of humor. 🙂
I like short curtains in bedrooms if they have a pelmet and tie backs.
You are awesome
Helpful video thank u💞
Thank you, good info
You tell me size didn’t matter now I’m going to be self- conscious anytime I see it tape measure or a curtain
All of your vids are gems !!
Is it ok to hang curtains on a window with plantation shutters? I have white shutters and was thinking of white linen curtains on the sides to add warmth but wasn’t sure if that’s a good look?
