About this deal

I've fitted a few curtain poles with my husband over the past few years. I'm usually holding the spirit level while he likes to take over. And normally, we've only ever had issues with using the right plasterboard fittings. Ensure both surfaces are dust free and here's where I applied in a wiggle fashion from top to bottom. There is no hard and fast rule on how high your curtain pole should be but as a general rule of thumb the norm is to position it around 15-20cms above the window. If the pole you have chosen is quite wide, position it high enough so that it does not come below the window recess. But as we were using curtains we already had, we didn't want the hassle of shortening them. And as they are very lightweight, we wondered about gluing a wooden batten for the curtain pole instead.

Corded curtain polesare useful if you struggle to reach the top of your curtains to open and close them. Additionally, they can be used for delicate fabrics that could be damaged by frequent handling. You can also add roller gliders if the curtains are heavy. To help your batten blend in to the wall even more, I used Painters Mate. It's similar to caulk but is flexible. I thought this was perfect for something glued to the wall. Generally, yes curtains should touch the floor. However, it does come down to window style and placement as well as personal preference. Curtains generally should sit flush with the floor, gather a little at the bottom or sit just above.Wooden curtain pole in a traditional woodstain finish with Turned Ball finials. 35mm diameter Mahogany finish curtain pole.

MARK WHERE YOU WANT YOUR POLE BATTEN

Then push where you want it and leave to cure for 24 hours. Although I left mine for about 16 and it was good to go. PAINTING YOUR BATTENI already know the height for the batten, it will be centred horizontally on the window, and I have already painted it. My intended method is slightly different, I have predrilled 5 holes in the batten, hole 3 being in the dead centre, the others equidistant. I plan to put a hole in the wall in the centre, matching the central batten hole, screw the batten (hole 3) to this while it is supported manually at either end, I can then adjust it around the centre to get it level, once level it will be manually held there and I will drill the other 4 pilot holes into the wall with a small bit, going through the pre-drilled holes in the batten, all done in place.
