Product Information

Here is another for hanging curtains without drilling from jenandlargo. She uses modified “over the door” hooks that she inserted into the ceiling panes on her porch. Magnetic curtain rod options do not hold very much weight. Therefore, you should use lightweight curtains rather than drapes. As the ceiling is normally high and customers often opt for lightweight fabric, this is the perfect way to hang beautiful window dressings which can easily be altered and can be safely fixed to the conservatory’s structure.’ This rod has an attractive and classic look with different finishes that work well with many styles. Using curtain wires is a simpler solution than putting up a rod. It’s a less visible, more discreet option. It’s perfect if you want something subtle that emphasizes your glorious drapery.

In an effort not to drill into the wall to hang a curtain rod, my next best option was to use Command Hooks. But not every Command Hook is created equal. Some are too small to hold a rod, and others can’t hold the weight of fabric panels. I spent a lot of time researching options and even looked at a few in the store. All the hooks options below are both big enough to hold a rod and strong enough to support the weight of several curtain panels, but range in price-points, finishes, and weight. Once she fit the curtain rods onto the door hook, she hung the curtains onto the rod with “s” hooks. This solution requires a ceiling area that may not be present where you want to place your curtains. Simply mount the ends on the wall or in the ceiling and add the curtain hooks and textiles. The length of the wire is adjustable, so you can always get the measurements just right. On top of that, it goes around corners as well. That way, you can place it above corner windows or a door entrance. Or why not let it expand from a window and along your entire wall? In all honesty, I thought they would be hardly noticeable once hung and would even serve as curtain weights to keep the pleats looking nice. Although they seem fairly obvious in photos, I don’t even notice them when I’m actually in the room. I’m not sure I would do this in a space where we host guests; but for now, it’s just another example of “making it work.”

How to Install Curtain Rod Brackets in 3 Quick Steps

Then paint the exposed areas of hook with matching wall paint. If you use dark hooks, it may take a few coats to get good coverage (when using a light paint color). Looking for other great solutions for your windows? I've got you covered with these other smart DIYs!

Velcro isn’t a solution that will cover a whole lot of situations, but it might be the one you need. ‘I have occasionally fitted tented curtains in sunrooms using Velcro,’ says John Doran. If you’ve been coming around here for any length of time, you likely know I have a pretty serious passion for hanging some sort of window treatments on our rental windows (you can read why here). When we first moved in 2 years ago, we immediately hung curtains in almost every single room. The one exception was our Master Bedroom simply because I ran out of curtain rods. I bought a curtain rod shortly after ( these are my favorite inexpensive rods) but it sat and sat and sat in our garage while I tended to other rooms and projects.

You will likely notice that I still used my grommet curtain panels…they are just hung upside-down. I hemmed and hawed about whether I should “doctor” my photos so you didn’t see them, but I opted to keep it real instead.

This is easy for anyone to install and takes just a few seconds to attach to a metal door or window.A tension rod works best on small windows, and does not work on large door or window frames as they will sag in the middle. Another no drill curtain rod option is a magnetic curtain rod. If you have metal doors or windows, this could be the perfect solution for you. Also, there are many available options from the Turquoize Store. For example, this one, is crafted from champagne gold for a classic look.

A tension rod works through a spring mechanism inside a rod that creates tension when you stretch it from one side of the frame to another. Tension rods work well as temporary curtain rods because there is no need for drilling and creating wall damage. After much hemming and hawing, I decided on these Jumbo Command Hooks. Although they are bulkier and not quite as “pretty” as the other options, I liked the way the rod fit into them best. And since I was trying to hang 10 lbs worth of curtains (2 panels on each side), I liked that each hook could hold up to 7.5 lbs on its own. Finally, they were also the cheapest and came in bulk sets, making it the most economical option for adding extra support as needed. There are many great ways to attach curtains without drilling into the wall, but not every way will work for your situation. For example, you must take into account your specific needs and home’s architecture to decide the ways that will work for you. Also consider whether to use curtain rings or not. Using curtain rings can add a good amount of exciting detail to your room. But if you have a very ornate design, they might make the room look busy and over-elaborate. Winding wires

Even though I originally placed my hooks at what I thought was “high and wide,” it wasn’t near high enough once I placed the rod and tested a panel. If you think that a tension rod will work for your situation, consider this curtain rod from Maytex. The Maytex Twist and Shout Tension Window Curtain Rod fits inside a door or window frame. Once I followed all the instructions and the hooks were fully “installed,” I hung my long, thin curtain rod across the two hooks.
