Ideas for dressing large window

1 reply

Soon to be moving into our new house.
The master bedroom has quite a large window measuring just under 3 metres wide.
Initially we want to get something up quickly and cheaply to give some privacy.
Was just going to put up nets and standard curtains, but looking at guides I would need a net 6m long to give the recommended gather.

Would I be better using maybe three 1.5m voile panels instead of one big net?

Other suggestions welcome!

One of the problems with that span of window is that the tensioned wire that supports the nets is quite likely to sag. Synthetic voiles might be a bit lighter weight than nets, and you might get away with less gather (say 1.5 x). Even so, I'd recommend you consider an extra support (mini cup-hook) at the mid point of the wire.
