Short window curtains provide practical solutions for challenging windows where full-length treatments aren’t feasible or desirable. Typically ending at or just below the windowsill, these abbreviated curtains work well in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, or any space with limited wall space below the window. Café-style curtains offer privacy while maintaining upper light flow, while tiered designs combine a fixed upper tier with operable lower panels. Short curtains also suit windows above radiators, furniture, or countertops where long drapes would be impractical. Many designs incorporate cheerful patterns or bright colors that add personality to smaller windows. Proper mounting is crucial – short curtains generally look best when the rod is placed slightly above the window frame to create the illusion of height. For a cohesive look, match the short curtain’s style and fabric to other window treatments in adjacent rooms, maintaining design continuity throughout your home.

For The Home

It’s been a long time, y’all. I’ve been out sick the last couple weeks. I fought it for a week but I couldn’t escape. None of us could. And so I’ve been offline for a bit. But I’m back now! So. Curtains. Let’s talk about hanging curtains. And how almost every store and catalog gets it wrong. It’s one of my pet peeves because it means that I can never find what I want in the store. They have too short curtains hung just level with the window frame. No. Just, no. If you want your curtains to look like they were hung by a real designer, here are the three tips to remember! 1. Hang your curtains high. Higher curtains create an illusion of height and make a bigger impact in a room. Imagine a grand old room with large windows and dramatic loooong drapes covering them. Like something from Pride and Prejudice. You can get that big impact with modern curtains just by hanging them higher. Unless you have a super high ceiling or a funky angle near the windows, curtains to the ceiling are amazing. My house has standard 8′ ceilings so I hang my curtains as high as they will go, almost to the ceiling and at least a foot above the window frame. This is why I can’t buy curtains in a normal store because I need extra length to reach the floor. If you have a super high ceiling, hang curtains about 6-12\

How long should curtains or draperies be? Generally, the longer the curtain or drapery, the more dignified, dressy, and formal the look. Shorter curtain lengths always imply a casual, relaxed, and informal mood. The decision is yours: In formal or dressy rooms, curtains should just touch the floor. A romantic room deserves elegant, extra-long curtains […]
