Hannah Joyce | Home Design & DIY on Instagram: "Do you like your curtains to fall above the floor, or pool on the ground? I have always been a fan of pooling of “puddling” which is when the curtain extends onto the floor to create a puddle of fabric. I like how this creates a whimsical soft look, but it can be a controversial design element as others feel like it looks messy. What do you think? Well if you find yourself with curtains that are a little too long for your liking, there is an easy fix, fabric tape! I use scotch brand and it holds really well but can also be removed without leaving a residue. Comment “curtain” and I will send you the link to the curtains and the tape. . . . If you’re new here… 🙋🏼‍♀️I share budget friendly home design, DIYs, and interior design tips 🫶🏼D

Michelle Riley | Design & DIY on Instagram: "Today I’m sharing ALL of my curtain ordering tips with you! These tips will help you get a perfectly polished look to elevate your home and will help create a larger and more luxurious appearance for your windows! PANEL WIDTH: • Order each panel 1-2X the width of your window. • To calculate stack width for triple pleat header, use this formula: PANEL WIDTH x .18 = STACK WIDTH • Do not order panels much wider than 150” if possible, as these will be too heavy to be supported by a curtain rod. • Do not order panels smaller than 40” width or the stack will look too skinny. • When hanging, use the stack width formula to determine how far past the window moulding to extend the rod.

Christina on Instagram: "Customized draperies, coming right up. Yup, this is an ikea hack, but you can use half price drapes on Amazon, or any linen (or linen look) curtains for this tutorial. The ikea ritva panels come with a pleating tape on the back side, and all you need are drapery pleating hooks, need and thread! If you have panels that don’t have a pleating tape attached at the top, they’re also available on Amazon very affordably. You just sew it on, and follow these same steps! Poof! Fi

Christina on Instagram: "I did it! I sewed my own linen cafe curtains for our kitchen. I looked for two years for the right window treatments for this large window on the front of our home, and nothing off the shelf would do. I wanted privacy, but lots of light, style, but not overpowering. I finally landed on making my own cafe curtains using pleating tape and fabric that perfectly matches our counter stools. I have a highlight saved at the top of my bio with the step by step process I followed
