US Patent:
51469723, Sep 15, 1992
Filed:
Jan 24, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/825217
Inventors:
William L. Tacchella - Sturgis MI
Assignee:
Cooper Industries, Inc. - Houston TX
International Classification:
A47H 100
US Classification:
160330
Abstract:
An improved method for draping curtains which allows one person to form a decorative window treatment without requiring any specialized skills or training. The method allows a curtain to be draped from a curtain rod of conventional configuration in a decorative manner about a window opening. The method uses hook and loop type fastening means to secure the curtain fabric to the curtain rod and thereby prevents the curtain from sagging at the top. Simple curtain rings are placed over the ends of the depending curtain fabric and then installed on the curtain rod near its ends to allow a portion of the curtain to form a decorative downwardly curved arc of fabric. The newly formed arc is then "dressed" or folded into pleats to complete the decorative window treatment. The improved method is also shown applied to a bay window treatment. An alternate embodiment is shown with the draped end portion of the curtain fabric looped and fastened to the curtain rod to allow a decorative puff to be formed in the looped fabric adjacent the curtain rings.
