Window curtain size guide.
These curtains usually cover the bottom half of the window and there is no need to have them extend beyond the window s width.
The back curtain which is usually sheer will need more fullness than the second layer.
In this case 2 panels will give about 100 to 120 of width which will look nice and full.
Our curtains are 45 63 72 and 84 long plus 4 headings.
Fuller curtains lend a richer feel to your windows while curtains with a shorter width create a more tailored look.
As for the curtain rod install it four to six inches above your window frame extending five to six extra inches on each side.
