Curtain measurements - (thick emotion!!!!)

Never bought a pair in my life so please take pity on me!!!

When you see a measurement eg W 66" x D 54" is that for ONE curtain (ie not a pair)

SOrry for being so dim - I shall await your wisdom.

Thank you.

Glad ts not me that cant get their head around curtain masurements, I have to get my Mum to help me.

Yes, that's the measurement for each curtain panel - prior to having the cords pulled and gathered up to create the heading.

By the way, if you buy them then don't forget to tie off the cords at the end of each curtain before pulling them. I once got some curtains and was stupid enough not to do this and pulled the cords right through. Nightmare!

Yes that's for one curtain, but don't forget that you need to get curtains wider than your window to allow for gathering and overlap.

This might be helpful
