Swag window treatments are there for many years and has yet to spread its popularity in modern and radical design. Festoons convey an aura very impressive and dramatic, because it is often used in environments with more formal arguments. Making wreaths is fairly easy with the right approach. Here are some simple rules to follow.

A prey, you must chart your plan first to avoid wasting fuel. Will not even run into a lot of problems, onceyou start treatment since all your measurements should be accurate. Take a pencil and paper and draw your design with the corresponding measurements. Graph paper is better since you can clearly plot and match the proportions. Consider the drapery length, heading, valance and tiebacks. The valance is the horizontal line across the top of the window while the heading is the top part of the window. Tiebacks hold the draperies along the side of the window.

Use the Rule of Fifths or Sixths in dividing the window. When making a swag, dividing the full length of the swag treatment by five or six to know the final length. If you are treatment almost reaches the ceiling, divide by five. If you are treating just above the window, divide by six. The cascade ideally is at least two times the total length of the swag drop. The long point should end into the lower third portion of the window.

The Rule of Threes can also be applied to add a more aesthetic appearance in your swag window treatment. You may apply two-thirds of window panels to a third of the window. This goes the same way when applying prints, tones or colors. You may use three colors wherein one serves as the main tone, the second color compliments the main tone and the third provides a nice contrast.

You should also consider the rods for your swag window treatment. Determine whether you want rods on the wall or the window frame itself. The latter may cause gaps at the edges which can be unsightly. Rods at least 4 inches away from each side of the window is recommended for a smoother look. Check the wall surface as well before placing rods to avoid cracks. You may have to use the right kind of mounting screws to keep it clean and intact.
