How to Make Beautiful Curtains with Eyelet Holes

You'll Need:

Fabric for curtains;

Eyelet holes;

Lace for eyelet holes.

Creating Spectacular Waves

Pay attention to creating the most spectacular waves by using an even number of rings. The distance between them is calculated depending on the desired depth of the folds. For relief and deep folds, the distance should be 22 cm, while for more frequent folds, 15 cm between the rings is recommended.

Instructions

For a 150 cm wide window, you will need at least three meters of fabric. The length will depend on how high the cornice is, with the recommendation to place the curtains above the floor at a distance of 3 cm. Additionally, add another 15 cm to your desired curtain length.

Fold along the upper edge and iron 2 cm to the inside.

Tighten again to the width of the eyelet holes.

Insert the lace inside, backing off 2–4 cm on each side of the hem. Carefully iron the fabric with the lace to ensure that it adheres to both layers of fabric.

Fasten the upper hem with a stitch, and then double hem the bottom and side edges.

Installing the Eyelet Holes

To install the eyelet holes, you need to mark the holes: lay the finished curtain on a flat surface and mark the centers of the eyelet holes according to your calculations.

Lay the fasteners correctly centered and circle the inside diameter. Carefully cut holes that are 2-3 mm larger than the marked circle.

Apply halves of the eyelet on both sides of the fabric. Make sure the curtains are laid straight and push until it clicks into place.
