He then continued to pull the ropes. Tip simple to collect your curtains. Take one set of ropes and connecting knotted over a door handle or some other fixed object. Then use one hand to hold the tape curtain with the other hand begin to pull the tape away from the door handle. You will see the curtain on the address of the start pleat.
How wide curtains you need to be?
Choose half the width of your track or rod measures. Let's say your path is 100 inches long. You half to 50 inches, then add 2 inches to allow your curtains to meet comfortably in the middle when hanging. Consequently, the supply that you want to finish collecting all of your pair of curtains is 52 inches. The sooner you learn how to hang curtains, and more this becomes second nature.

As a general rule of thumb to use less hooks on the rod or pole on the path of the curtain. On the path of development of Hawk Pocket 4 ever and ROR or pole pockets every 6 to 8.
Hanging from the track?

Step 1 when hanging

A lot of people say you should always start your hanging curtains from the ends of the track or rod and work on his waist. I did not agree, and I say should always start from the outside East and work on the ends. Why I advise you to do it this way is that if you have
Gliders too much on your track or too many rings on a rod you can easily remove the ends of your track or rod. Where if you start from the outside in the middle of the gliders are locked surplus or rings in the middle of your path or rod. This means you have to unhang curtains to remove them. Not much more than that and now you'll have the basics on how to hang curtains.
Why some advice to start from the middle?
The reason is that in some of the tracks and bars, but mostly this kind corded. Their so-called overlap arms. This is a short arms made of metal or platic with holes in for the last few years of curtain hooks on each leading edge of your pair of curtains (edges that meet in the center of the window). Theses interfere weapons allow for a curtain to pass and overlap other curtain by 2 or 3 inches. Giving you total privacy.
So what is the big problem?
Where is the problem? The problem is that these weapons are not very strong. This means when you start to hang a way to a heavy curtain. Especially without the presence of any weight they carry sag and twist or break completely.
Avoid the problem!
So how do we avoid it when hanging from the middle of the road or rod and work abroad. Really quite simple, if you need to go 2 hooks in the arm overlap and then return to connect 3rd and link it in the first real glider or ring. Leaving the 1st and 2 curtain hooks to hang only in space. Continue to work your curtain hanging from the outside East. This is how to hang curtains on my way (the best way is clear "signal")
Then once you have arrived at the end of your path or rod (remove any surplus gliders or rings). I go back to the middle, and linked in the past two years of curtain hooks into the arms of the interferometer. So in order to avoid putting too much weight on them.
Well I hope you have picked up some "tips" on how to hang curtains. This is only the first phase. Next is the "dressing" of your curtains.
