“What Length Should My Curtains Be?”
“What Length Should My Curtains Be?”

Hey, it’s Rebecca West from Seriously Happy Homes with today’s 1-minute design tip regarding curtains. Number one; before you hang your curtains, make sure you’ve ironed them or steamed them because all of those wrinkles can make them hang a little high. And later on, you can end up with length you didn’t mean to. Because you want to hang your curtains so they’re about a half-inch from the floor. And that way you get that long look of full-length curtains, but they’re not dragging on the floor, giving you a cleaning nightmare. So steam and iron them first before you hang them and then hang them. So they’re about a half-inch off the floor. That is your design tip of the day. Hope it’s helpful!
May your home (and your curtains) always be happy!
