LIFEHACK - HOW TO SHORTEN THE CURTAIN

Probably, this is the question that our clients ask most often. That's why we tell everything in great detail. So meet the second series of our HARMFUL tips from the designer. We do not advise the weak-minded to read further than the second point.

  1. If your curtains are long, you can try to make a pick-up and this way you will manage a little blood and save a lot of nerves.

 

  1. If your curtains are too long, pretend it was such a plan. After all, it is now fashionable for curtains to lie well, spread out on the floor.

 

  1. The first thing you need to shorten the curtain is to thoroughly wash the floor in a long corridor. Why wash? That then it was possible to lay out a fabric on a floor. Measure the required height with a tape measure and run around the fabric. Although, what are we talking about, do not run, but crawl on your knees. Cut off. Measure again whether the allowances for seams were taken into account. (Ideally, mention the allowances for cutting).

 

  1. You can cut the curtains with cobwebs. You won't even need a needle here. Just a peach. A cobweb is an adhesive tape. Bend the edges at the required height. On the ironing board. Get used to it, get used to it and you're done. Valid until the first wash.

 

  1. You can do all the necessary manipulations of the canopy. They hung the curtain, bent it, turned on the music and forward the needle, as in the wild old days. Note that you need to wrap inside out, try to bend evenly, remember the lessons of work at school. And if you have a hand-held machine with AliExpress, then you can feel like the goddess of the garment industry.

 

  1. The last method is the personal know-how of our manager. Hang the curtain on the cornice. Arm yourself with a furniture stapler. As you bend the required length, secure the edges with a stapler. Try to match the paper clips to the fabric. It will be more expensive, but no one will notice. Do not make large gaps between the paper clips. Optimally 5-7 cm.

 

Well, if no jokes, then, of course, you can really do everything yourself. It is convenient to reflect the height of the curtains when you have a large table that can fit the entire width and length of the fabric, a sewing machine, sharpened tailor's scissors and free time. Otherwise, you will get a lot of inconvenience and not the fact that you will be satisfied with the result. Therefore, it is better to take the curtains in the studio. It won't cost too much.
