How To Measure

Width

Measure how wide you would like your curtain track.

Height/Drop

Measure exactly where you would like the curtain track/rod to sit.

If you're wanting the track to be mounted on the ceiling, then measure the distance from the ceiling to the floor, if you would like the track mounted on the wall, then measure the distance from the floor to the point on the ceiling.

Colours

In addition to the colours that you can see on each of the individual products pages, below are some videos that give a better representation of the fabrics.

Heading Style

There are plenty of curtain header options to choose from.  Not only do they provide functional benefits, they help achieve the overall look of a space, i.e. traditional or contemporary and you need to consider which option before the curtain making process begins.  What are curtain headers?  It’s the way in which the fabric is sewn or pleated at the top of the curtain, and it will have a direct impact on the way in which the material drapes or hangs, as well functional characteristics such as stack back (the amount of space a curtain will occupy when fully drawn open).
