    I have been renovating houses long enough to pick up a few hints.LOL.How are ya mate?

    HI   IF YOU MEASURE THE WIDTH OF THE WINDOW OR OPENNING  THEN YOU HAVE TO DECIDE HOW MUCH FULLNESS YOU REQUIRE AND WHAT TYPE OF MATERIAL


    IF THE MATERIAL IS THICK LIKE VELVET OF BROCHADE AND IS NOT EASY TO RUSHE UP THEN 1/3 TO 1/2 EXTRA NEEDS TO BE ADDED ONTO YOUR MEASUREMENTS


    EG   IF  YOU HAVE  250cm OPENNING THEN ADD ON 100cm TO 125cm THIS WOULD GIVE YOU 375cm


    IF THE MATERIAL IS THINNER THEN YOU NEED TO ADD ON  UP TO DOUBLE THE WIDTH


    OTHERWISE YOUR CURTAINS WILL LOOK AS IF YOU HAVE SKIMPED ON THE MATERIAL


    YOU COULD ALSO ASK FOR ADVICE OF THE STORE WHERE YOU BUY YOUR CURTAINS FROM


    I HOPE THIS HAS HELPED
