Hi, I have a five window bow that measures around 109". I want to put something for privacy half way up the windows because I am putting up some sort of valance outside across the top of the whole window. Anyway, I was wondering what kind of tier or curtain half way up in each window and what kind of rods, the two end windows would be hard to put tension rods because theres not much room to put them because of the screens in each end window Thanks,Sue.


Hi sue

I would make a sheer panel about double the width of your window with a top pocket of about an inch.

Then hang it with a net curtain wire. You would need to fit a small hook into your window frame at each end. Then a hook between each window where it bends.

Then thread the wire through the top pocket and put an eyelet on each end. Then hook the wire with your sheer panel up onto each hook. This will hold it into the window shape.

You need to make the wire about 6 inches shorter than your window as it stretches under tension. you won't see the wire when fitted.

So if it interests you then take a look at Net curtain wire


best regards

Lee
