My Curtains- a heated debate

My 6 foot 3 inch tall hubby can’t see out our kitchen window while doing the dishes “Because the curtains are too low!” To solve this horrible problem I have created, he takes the entire curtain and curtain rod off the hooks and sets it somewhere in our kitchen. Not too much of a big deal as he can easily reach it and put it back up when he is done. For some reason though, it annoys the heck out of me! Love you Dev. It’s ok, because I know those curtains annoy him too :). I am after all the one who put them up and at 5’6″, I was not thinking of Dev’s vantage point. But, being the super nice and handy wife that I am, I decided (after 5 years) to fix it .
I think your supposed to hang your curtains as high the ceiling anyway to make your windows look bigger…or something like that. Anywhooo, they do look much better now and some how the room looks a tiny bit bigger. Tell me what you think here’s the picture.
(Above sink window not a pictured due to large amount of dishes usually in sink).
Tools I used. Love this small drill. Every girl should have one.
Get handy around the house with your power drilling self! Yaoowwzahh!
….Or should I say hear me ROAR! (while I flex my arm muscle) haha
I think that the curtains look really good. I never thought about having them up against the ceiling, but I will now. Thanks Lynn, you are so handy.
I does look better up higher. Who would have guessed:-)
Way to go! Looks great! I definitely need to get myself one of those small drills.
