This operation is normally done on site just prior to hanging which ensures the material is not creased during transport and it also allows the curtain to be gathered to         the exact size required. To ensure that when you draw the curtain it hangs fully and does not have a stretched appearance the width of the material used is approximately 2.5 times the width of the actual window. You can choose from a wide range of fabrics including plains, neutrals, patterns, textures and jacquards so you can create the look you want – this type of heading works equally well with tracking and poles and with traditional or modern styles.       Pinch Pleat Another popular heading which gives a more formal and classic appearance. A standard 12.5 cm heading is used and three pleats are pinched together to form a fanned pleat and where the material is flat between flutes. This arrangement creates elegant folds in the material so the curtain hangs beautifully. The heading is made specifically for the length of the curtain track or pole so     it is vital that everything is measured accurately. Again the material used is approximately 2.5 times the width of the actual window.             Eyelets This is where an eyelet (4 cm diameter) is fitted within the heading of the curtain through which the pole is placed. This is ideal if you prefer to use poles rather than tracks and you are trying to achieve a more contemporary look to your room. The eyelets can be in a variety of colours including black, gold and satinised silver so that they tone in with the colours of the fabric.   So either give us a ring, or send an email or call in as we are happy to discuss your options and give you any help and advice you need.
