Measure & Pleat or Clip

Setup Your Workspace

1

Once you’ve found a good readymade panel to install alongside your hardware, the first step is to pleat & clip the panels.

2

Hem, Iron & Hang

Fold the curtains into their hemmed position, sandwiching the fusing tape in the center of the fold, then iron to bond & set the hem… it’s easy!

Steam & Train

Setup Your Workspace

3

Once they’re installed, bust out your steamer. Steaming will also help them settle and stretch as they hang.

You really don’t have to spend an arm and a leg on custom window treatments for a designer look if it’s not in your budget.
