Steps on Making Bunk Bed Curtains
There are several ways you can hang your bunk bed curtains. You can either hang one long curtain at the top bunk and allow it to flow down through the down bunk.
Although this method will save you stress, I don’t recommend it. Inevitably, the occupant of the lower bunk will always get disturbed by the other person.
Note; the idea of adding these curtains is to facilitate the movement and activities of both occupants without disturbing the other person.
Now that you get this, you will understand that having separate sets of short curtains is better. Here, both occupants also get to choose the color and type of curtains they need.
With these steps, you should know exactly how to make bunk bed curtains without mistakes. These steps include:
Step #1; The first step on how to make bunk bed curtains taking measurements. This step is crucial. Don’t assume you know the dimensions. Use your take and measure to avoid waste of resources and also a waste of efforts.
Measure the curtain rod hooks’ length, measure the length of the curtains, and make sure to work with these measurements. Taking steps will save you from a lot of mistakes.
Step #2; Attach your curtain rod hooks to the bunk wood. If your upper bunk doesn’t have posters, you can as well attach them to the ceiling.
Step #3; install your curtain rods to the hooks. You attach one end of the rod to one end of the hook, now slide in the rod properly and attach to the other end of the hook.
Step #4; install your curtains. Remove one end of the rod, slide in your curtains and replace the rod with its hook. Now fasten the rod to the hooks and adjust your curtains. Your bunk bed curtains are ready.
You can now enjoy your privacy. You also transform this place into a fort. I will tell you how in a bit.
