Always use a metal rule when measuring for curtains.

Most of our measurements are tip to tip. This is from the very top of the curtain to the very bottom. It includes the rod pocket, header and hem or to the longest bottom scallop.

It will be noted if different.

The rod pocket is a "sleeve" for the rod to slide through. Standard is 1.5". The rod diameter should be less than 1".

The header is above the rod pocket.

Hem depths vary by pattern.

Scallops are hand-cut. There is no hem.
