There are varieties of curtain rods available in the market today,
all of which serve a different purpose.
Following are the different types of curtain rods:
Café rods - available with or without rings. These are
available with several finishing touches of enamel and brass and
are used for tie-tab curtains, hand-drawn windows and unique
draperies.
Sash rods - here you can use shallow mounting brackets that
offer the curtains to remain close to the glass windows and doors.
These are commonly used for stretched curtains on doors.
Wide curtain rods - are usually available in 2-1/2" and 4-1/2"
widths. They have corner connectors that make these rods
suitable for special bay and corner windows.
Narrow curtain rods - are used for typical rod-pocket window
treatments. They are available in clear and translucent plastic
material that does not show the curtain fabric.
Curtain rods are the most crucial items for hanging curtains. So
you have to select the ones that will perfectly suit the window
and doorframes.
You can also make curtain rods of your own at home. Just measure
the width of the windows and doors and then get the rods with
few extensive inches on either side. Get finials, hooks,
unfinished dowels, and curtain rings to make your desirable
curtain rods. Cut the dowel, paint it and then screw the large
hooks into the wall over the window. Thread the beautiful
curtain rings over the dowel, fasten the knobs at each end and
hang some wonderful curtains to complete your home decor.
