Bay Window Treatments

Swag Pairs are a good choice for bay windows with the 2 smaller side windows. A Swag Pair has 2 pieces - a left side and a right side. The valance fits between (for the larger middle window). This helps keep the fullness relatively the same.

Boucle Sheer

100% polyester textured netting-like fabric used as the sheer for the macrame ring lace drapes.

Crush Lace

Lace textiles created using an unique "crushing" process. It gives the lace a slightly crumpled effect. The texture is heat-set to last through repeated washings. This process may result in some size variations. A Vintage look in 100% polyester with a cotton-like feel. View current Crush Lace Designs.

Curtain

A decorative window covering, hung with curtain rods, café rods, or small diameter decorator rods ( not over 3/4 inch). Most curtains have a 1.5 inch rod pocket and a 1 inch header (above the rod).

Door Panels and Sidelights

Door Panels and Sidelight curtains have rod pockets and headers at the top and bottom.

Drape Shade

Usually narrower than panels, flatter like a shade, the drape shade has tie-ups that give a soft, drape feeling. You tie it to the position you want. View Balloon Curtains and Tie-Ups.

Fullness

Fullness is a matter of personal taste. Our ready-made curtains are designed to fit one window about 28 to 45" wide and are about 1.5 times fullness. Draperies are usually fuller - up to 4 times the window width. Macrame ring lace with sheers should be 1.75 to 2 times. To calculate fullness, determine the rod width that the curtains will cover and multiply by your desired fullness.

Header - Heading

This is the little part above the rod. Also below the rod for door panels and sidelights. Heading refers to the pocket and the header.
