ASK THE DECORATING EXPERTS
I would like to cover the ground floor windows of my house with a contemporary- look fabric as I dislike net curtains. Can I hang this fabric quite flat with a weighted bottom bar rather than have it gathered, or would it look too much like I have just hung a flat bed sheet against the window?
That should work. I suggest attaching the fabric to a pelmet with Velcro so it is easy to remove for washing.
Also consider:
1. Screening only the bottom half if you have sash windows.
2. Using the sheer fabric to make a stiffened roller blind.
3. Using an iron pole (which could be hung from the ceiling or wall) and hanging the sheer fabric from the pole with ties.
4. Making a soft blind which rolls up.
