Buying curtains and curtains is a responsible business. It is necessary to make all measurements and accurately calculate the size of the canvas. However, no one is safe from a mistake, and sooner or later you can miss. That is when the question arises about how to lengthen the curtains or tulle.
The sloppy view of the window often spoils the impression of the whole room. The reason may be poorly washed glass, old window frame, as well as poorly ironed, dirty or too short curtains.
If the first problems are solved, but the windows still look sloppy, it may be the length of the curtains. Let’s try to get rid of this shortcoming quickly.
Our methods are good because they do not need a sewing machine. And you definitely don't have to redo the whole canvas. These are quick options available to every hostess.
In order to lengthen the curtains or curtains, you will need construction plastic clamps. You can take short ones, about 20 cm. This method is suitable if the curtains are attached to hooks.
Remove the curtains, carefully measure what the curved clamps should be so that the curtains are of the correct length. Mark the right number of centimeters on the clamps.
Carefully stretch all the clamps under the loop on the corsage tape, so that there is the same distance between them. Lock the plastic in the rings and cut off the excess.
Curtains or tulles can be easily washed together with plastic elongation. Convex parts of the rings turn inward so that they are not noticeable.
If your curtains hang on the round eaves, you can use the second method. You'll need a long, wide ribbon for it.
The tape needs to be cut into equal segments, their length must be calculated in the same way as in the first method. The pieces are worn with tweezers in the loops of corsage tape and carefully tie.
The ends can be decorated in the form of a bow, and you can briefly cut and hide under threads that tighten the curtain. This elongation looks very good, especially if the material and color of the tape is similar to the material of the curtain itself.
Remember that the selection of cornices is as important as the choice of material for curtains. Modern and easy to use eaves will immediately transform the look of your windows. We advise you to give preference to laconic tubular options. They will fit in any interior.
