Another common mistake is installing brackets at the edge of the window trim, which ends up making your curtains block some of the sunlight from streaming in.
You want to install the brackets about ten inches away from the trim on each side of your window so that when the curtains are open, they sit directly over the walls. The more light there is in a room, the larger the space feels.
Several TikTok users headed to the comments section to rave about how these curtain-hanging tips are their tried and true remedy for making their homes look more polished.
“This technique changed the game for my room! No more darkness unless they’re closed,” commented one user.
“Yep! Been doing that for years. No one will ever know I have tiny windows,” revealed another.
“I have my curtains hanging close to the ceiling, and it made my room look so much bigger; looks so good!” exclaimed a third.
Now you know that you can dramatically improve the overall look of a room simply by shifting your curtains a few inches higher or wider.
