When you use rods for a bay window you may end up needing three or more segments of rods to over each are of the window. Depending on how many window pane segments your window has you could be stuck with the frustration and lengthy process of hanging up five curtain rods and curtains. The worst part about using curtain rods for your bay window is that you will end up with brackets that interfere with smoothly opening and closing your curtains. To find this problem you can easily install a curved and ceiling mounted track that follows all angles and curvatures and leaves you with a single, smooth gliding, elegant look.

A Nook and Book

Owning your own place means giving it your own personal touch. Another way to create a private person space is by installing a ceiling mounted curtain track a little way away from the window.

This can create a great private relaxing space for morning coffee, rainy afternoon reading or crafting by the window. Really, it’s up to you!
