And I am going to use that tip of yours!! I also hate it when the curtains stick out away from the wall and I can see daylight from the side of the curtains. I never knew how to fix it, and I've tried fiddling with the curtains, and nothing ever worked. I'm going to have to try that.<br /> <br />P.S. My husband just moved the clip for me as I was typing my comment, and it looks so much better!! Thanks for the great tip!! :) That looks great!! And I am going to use that tip of yours!!

I have wooden blinds and never know what to do with them. <br /><br />I have used that trick to cover the gap many times in my design business. Another way is to put up sheers, that are on a smaller rod, closer to the window. The sheers don't even have to extend the width of the window, just peek out from the panels.<br /><br />I Always like visiting your blog :) I agree that window shots are hard.
