How to Tie a Window Scarf

A window scarf is the perfect accent for large or small windows. You can easily add a scarf to create a luxurious look to your window treatments. Regardless of whether you have drapes, blinds or other types of treatments in place, adding a window scarf is a great way to add color and dimension to any room.

Things You'll Need

• Window scarf
• Curtain rod
• Window sconce
• Swag holder

Instructions

1. Hang curtain rod, sconce or swag holder so the window scarf will drape over the top of the window.

2. Choose a window scarf that's at least 6 yards in length so it will drape loosely across the top of the window and cascade down to the floor.

3. Use the curtain rod, sconce or swag holder to hold the scarf in place as you drape it over the window.

4. Stand back and take a look at the window.

5. Adjust each side until they're even.

Tips & Warnings

• Choose a window scarf that is the same color as your drapes to create an elegant look.

• For larger windows or French doors, purchase a window scarf that's 8 yards in length so it can frame the doorway completely.
