If you have ever tried to hang a window scarf then you know how frustrating it can be to control the fabric while draping the swags. Starting with the right fabric, in the needful distance for your window and using a rod you can pin the folds into will simplify hanging any scarf. Just effect these three tips.
Window Scarves - 3 Things You Can Do to Make Them Easy to Hang
1. Begin with the right fabric, one that has a soft hand and flowing drape. It can be silk or satin or sheer or even a light weight chenille. It is leading however that both sides are appealing; in the process of draping both the front and the back of the fabric could end up showing. That is why sheers are often used; both sides of a sheer look the same. If your fabric has a pattern, the direction of the print will change as you drape the scarf. In the case of a stripe or plaid they will appear on an angle on the swag and run vertically on the cascades. If the pattern includes an image like a tree, the tree could end up up-side down in places. It is a good idea to avoid patterns that have a direction.
2. Having the right size scarf is important. If it is too long it can be difficult to conduct and end up looking sloppy; not adequate fabric and it will look skimpy. To originate the length, first conclude how many swags or loops you want to have. This is partially thought about by the size of the window; a typical swag is 36 inches wide, however, it can be larger or smaller. Add the windows width plus how much fabric will hang down on each side plus 10 inches for each loop/swag. This will equal the complete distance of fabric you need.
Before hanging the scarf indicate the town of the fabric lengthwise, and quantum up from the ends to where the cascades will begin. Mark these locations with a piece of masking tape on the edge of the fabric.
