Curtain Measuring Guide 40 inches
LENGTH, top to bottom:
Measure from the top of the curtain rod down to where you want the curtain to fall. The total length is from the top of the rod pocket to the bottom of the curtain, excluding the 1-inch header if chosen.
WIDTH, left to right::
Curtains should be 1.5 - 2 times wider than the window or rod for fullness or less for a tailored look.
HEADER:
Options: 1-inch header (rod pocket and 1" topper) or flat top (rod pocket only).
Please note that the total length refers to the distance from the top of the rod pocket to the bottom of the curtain, excluding the 1-inch header topper if selected.

ROD POCKET SIZE:
As a general rule, the rod pocket needs to be at least twice the diameter of the round pole or half an inch more than the size of a flat (continental) curtain rod. For example, a 1-inch round pole requires a 2-inch rod pocket, while a 2.5-inch flat curtain rod requires a 3-inch rod pocket.
ADDITIONAL TIPS:
To ensure a consistent color or pattern and pattern placement, it is recommended to order the necessary quantity. Slight variationS between bolts is possible.
