Curtains can not only decorate the room, but also protect privacy and reduce light, especially for resting bedrooms. Floor-to-ceiling curtains are recommended to be at the top. If the curtains are not installed properly, or are not made to the top, or the size is wrong, light will easily pass through in the morning, which will greatly affect sleeping late. So how to remedy this situation?
1. How to remedy the failure of the curtain
If the curtains are installed too low and too close to the window frame, there will be light leakage at the top of the curtains. For people who are sensitive to light, this light is enough to keep them sleepless all night. In this case, we can install a curtain on the top of the curtain, which can perfectly cover the small gap at the top or in the middle. Or when decorating, making a curtain box can also play a very good role in preventing light leakage and blocking light from windows.
2. Should the curtains be topped?
It is recommended to make it to the top, otherwise it will not look good, and the height can be several centimeters higher than the window frame, so that there will be no problem of light leakage at the top of the curtains, and it will also lengthen the visual height of the entire room. If the curtains are only half installed and do not rely on the roof, the height of the room will be visually shorter, giving people a messy and crowded feeling. And the floor-to-ceiling curtains installed from the top can make the room very tidy and spacious. If it is a small window, you can make a half curtain, just flush with the window.
3. How far the curtains are from the top is the most suitable
The height of the curtains is recommended to be installed about 30 cm higher than the window and about 10-15 cm away from the roof, depending on the decoration style and the height of the walls and windows of your home. No matter how high the curtains are hung, the height of the room can be a few centimeters higher. It is best to hang them from 13 to 18 cm above the edge of the window frame. Note that the curtains should be 3 to 5 cm above the ground, so that it is not easy to mop the floor, stain the curtains, and will not affect the drape.
