How can you hang scarf window treatments? I am remodeling my room and I do not want I wanted curtains curtains scarf. scarf curtains are those purely aesthetic. it's like a long scarf that hangs over the window to the show. but they are so difficult to hang up and make them look nice! I was woundering if there were any techniques or maybe someone is a disign interior and could help me. Thank you!
Suspension of a scarf window looks so easy, but you have to play with it a bit. Also, the length and width of your fabric can make a big difference.

it may be difficult to catch this kind of curtain. I have hung in my mother's house and it is delicate. it is even harder to explain.
First, gather the curtain on a thin strip. fold it in half lengthwise.
Then, take the middle of the bow and put the rod back and lung a little more.
Then, take each long side and put them on the rod forward, go outside the brackets that hold the bar on the wall.
After the tug a little, the long pieces until you have the center pulled up the level you want.
take the edges of the center and use them to cover the ends of the rod shape the way you want. pull the center to the point where it hangs lower than the edges, but stays high on the stem. , Speaking swooping
Good luck, I know how frustrating it can be.
Scarf Curtains are among the most frustrating things to hang and do things. The trick is to start by laying the center of the wrap on the center of the stem and put a sewing needle from the back to hold it in place. Continue draping and adjusting and readjusting to each side and pin as you go. Once the scarf is looking for Nice, adjust your pins one to one so they are not visible. The pins to hold things up enough that if you bump them or if a gust of wind though the scarf will be required to adapt to smallest.
The toughest part is the booty center, then the two ends hang well. For the ends, depending on the length of the wrap, you can be creative and either use a braided cord to tie on some attitude or tassel to create a more dramatic, or soft iron a couple of wrinkles in to keep the fabric hang straight.
Unfortunately, whenever you take the scarf down to wash you have to go through this all again. Good luck!
