Measuring for Ready Made Curtains
Select your desired curtain rod first. This will be your guide to the length of your curtain.
Standard curtain rods are hung 6" above a window frame with an allowance of 2"-3" on each side of the window . The length of your curtain panels will depend on your bottom point and any of these numbers can be adjusted to enhance a window.
When measuring use a metal rule for accuracy.
To measure the width, measure the full length of you curtain rail / pole including any overlaps.
To measure the drop, measure from where you want the top of your curtains to sit on the rail / pole to where you want them to finish.

For tab top curtains the drop includes the tab length.
