Using One Curtain Panel Per Window

If you are splitting up a pair and only using one on a window i think it will look even skimpier.

Using one curtain panel per window.

So no i don t recommend it. Several single panels can be combined to curtain an extra wide window. Measure the width of the curtain rod if you have chosen it. Another option for a room with two windows is to pull both panels to one side and hold in place with a tie back.

The amount you add depends on how far to the side of the window you want the curtains to hang. If you haven t chosen one measure the width of the window and add 1 to 3 inches for each side of the window. For example the left curtain panel should be drawn to the left and the right curtain panel should be drawn to the right. The rule of double the width for the fabric needed is important as is the use of the two curtains.

One curtain panel on a window would look funny to me unless you could tie it back on one side but it would need to balance out with the other windows. One panel per window will look very skimpy and certainly. Usually the drapery panels should equal two and a half times the window width. Usually curtains are hung in pairs but an asymmetrical look can be very attractive and so you may want to hang only a single curtain panel.

Most of the time curtains come in pairs. A single panel may also be more cost effective for. Yes i think a room s look can be ruined by the use of skimpy curtains. Yes one drapery panel per window would look out of place.

Can be a roman shade style or hanging straight down from the bar and pair them up with two windows to draw the eye to the center of the wall. They can be hung with the tie on the right or the left of the window. Long panels should look as if they are full enough to pull across the entire window. Purchased curtain panels always look skimpy to me because i like to use fabric generously and have nice full pleats.
