How Do You Hang Corner Curtain Rods?


If you have a corner window that needs covering, don't despair. Corner curtain rods can help you turn a decorating problem into a beautiful wall and window treatment. It can be difficult to hang curtains in the corner, but with a corner curtain rod and a couple of extra hands, you task can be completed in only few short minutes. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Measure each window from the corner outwards so that you will know the exact measurements of the corner curtain rod that you need to purchase. Be sure that you allow room for mounting hardware, as this can take up to an extra 1/2 inch.


2. Visit a local department store or home improvement warehouse to purchase your corner curtain rod. Make sure that your measurements match up to the rod, so that there won't be any discrepancies when you get home.


3. Take the corner curtain rod and place it on the wall or on the window frame where you would like for it to go. Use a pencil to mark the places where the mounts will go.


4. Have someone else come and hold the mounting hardware in the correct spot while you drill the screws into the the marks that you made with the pencil. Installation is quicker when you have an extra pair of hands.


5. Thread your curtains over the rods. Attach the rods with the curtains on them to the mounts that you already have in place. You will have a beautiful corner window treatment for you home.
