I’ll never forget one of the best pieces of interior design advice I received when my husband and I bought our first home: Hang curtains six inches above the top of the window frame and extend the rod at least 8 inches on either side. This helps your windows appear larger and your ceilings taller than if you hung them closer. It absolutely creates a more polished look and is a trick you’ll see in all the staged interior design photos you see. Combining blinds and curtains together is a great way to maximize your privacy as well as have ultimate control over your lighting. We hope all our expert advice helps you to find the perfect pairing for your home!
