Curtains - quick poll

[melpomene]

Which is better for curtain length: to the sill, or below the sill?

floor length, half length always make me think of old peoples homes

below the sill

floor length on a normal-sized window is a bit odd no?

whats a normal size window? all of mine are to the floor

I like floor length too. Otherwise just below the sill is the least offenisve of the other options.

floor floor floor

no debate imvho

don't you all have rads under the windows - do you just cover them with floor length curtains??

I prefer floor length but have radiators under windows so either dont close them or sort of drape them on top of radiator cover.

Hmmm. The window in question is in dd1's room and is quite high off the ground (sill is nearly level with my chest). I think floor length would get in the way a bit...

just below the sill, definitely

depends on the depth the window is inset to, iyswim. My front room window is in a slightly deeper-than-normal embrasure and so sill-length is a must, otherwise they would hang funny.

All others are just below the sill. And long enough to tuck behind the radiator.

lo I thought it said pull!

For a window as you describe, just below the sill - floorlength would look daft, not to mention the waste of money having all the fabric flapping about.

Just below the sill - then you have room for a chest fo drawers - radiator or whatever - floor length is a bit ott and possibly dangerous too...

below the sil

fo that style window floor length would be odd

most other windows floor length though
