here to see How To Measure Your Window For Curtains.
How to measure for curtains: · Use a steel measuring tape - cloth tapes are not accurate. Take exact measurements - round down to the nearest quarter
of an inch (1/4"). Measuring Width To arrive at the proper width of your window, measure from the total area to be covered. Include the molding for outside mount curtains. To maximize window glass increase width measurement should extend beyond the window on either side to account for stackback.. Measuring Length To arrive at the proper length for your curtain if rods are already in placemeasure from the top of curtains rod to the floor (if you do not want the curtains to touch the floor measure to the point where you want the bottom of your curtain to fall.) ·If no rod is installed, Start length measurement where you want the Rod hung, then measure towards the bottom windowsill to the spot where you want the curtains to end. This Length measurement is the finished length of your curtain panels. NOTE· Ready made curtain panels usually come in pre-set widths of 50". To determine the necessary number of curtains you will need take your overall width measurement from above and multiply X 2*. Divided this number by the width of your ready made curtain panels. Example: 100" window x 2/50" curtain panel width = 4 curtain panels required
*This number represents the "fullness" of your curtains. Typical fullness is between 1.5 and 3. Most custom curtains are already sewn with there fullness incorporated into the finished width.

Thank you so much! I will definitely use your company again and will recommend you to my friends and family. What a great price for quality treatments. I've had a great experience! Thanks for your quick responses, patience and excellent customer service. Will be Back Again!
I ordered an extended length drapery rod and finials from you about a month ago. Just wanted to let you know that I was very happy with how easy your site makes it to order the length I needed. I love the finish of the rod, and mostly I loved the price. I looked at a lot of websites and didn't find anything that compared to what Best Window Treatments had to offer. Wanted to be sure and let you know that I'm 110% satisfied with the quality and the service. Thank you.
Thanks. I will definitely recommend your company to all my interior designer friends here in West Palm Beach. I have a new home 5,100 sq.ft., with lots of windows. My friend who is an interior designer is working on my home and she loved the curtains I ordered from you. All of this to say, I am very happy you worked with me on this and will definitely be advertising on your behalf.
These curtains are so perfect. I'm using these as 3/4 length curtains in my bedroom but I would love to have them as full curtains in the living room, family room and den. I cannot begin to tell you how thrilled I am about the quality, material, construction and appearance. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I just received my order today order and I am absolutely elated. I never ordered from your company before and was very apprehensive about just what I was getting.. Your color pictures were acurate. The color was exactly as stated and the workmanship is very impressive. I would recommend your company to any one who is looking for window treatments. Thank you for your prompt service because I was very anxious, both because I wanted to get them up and because I didn't know what to expect. Above Expectations!!
