center;\"><strong>Full Tutorial:\u00a0 How to Lengthen Curtains with One Seam<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>STEP 1:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Determine how long your new curtains need to be.\u00a0 If you\u2019re not sure, use this guideline.\u00a0 Always hang your curtains between 4\u201d-6\u201d below your ceiling.\u00a0 Yes, that high.\u00a0 It draws your eyes up, making the room look bigger.\u00a0 We all want bigger rooms, so let your curtains do the work.\u00a0 Then hang your curtain rod so that it\u2019s ready for your longer curtains.<\/p>\n<p>Next, decide if you want your curtains brushing the floor, or pooling on the floor.\u00a0 No pooling curtains in bathrooms or kitchens please.<\/p>\n<p>If your curtains are going to brush the floor, then measure from the rod to the floor.\u00a0 That\u2019s the length you\u2019ll need.\u00a0 If you\u2019re pooling the curtains, I add 4 inches.\u00a0 You can add more if you want a more dramatic poof at the bottom (cute in nurseries and little girl\u2019s rooms).<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-765 size-medium\" title=\"Ultimate DIY Guide to Lengthening your Curtains with One Seam:
