Yardage Chart for Draperies
An important part of any decorative project is the drapery fabric you choose.
Beyond simply selecting the right print and coordinating colors, decorating with drapery fabrics also entails purchasing the correct yardage. Failure to do so can stunt a project before it gets off the ground.
With the following charts Deutscher Design offers some estimates on how many yards you may need for specific window treatments.
These charts are not intended to exhaustively treat every possible drapery project, but rather to give approximate yardages for some of the most common.
Furthermore, as these charts are guidelines and not definitive statements, they do not eliminate the need for you to make exact measurements before purchasing fabric.
Deutscher Design has over 20 years experience, so if these charts do not satisfactorily clarify your questions feel free to send us your inquiries ....

Balloon Shades
What are balloon shades?
Balloon shades are intended to be light and airy.
Just like all other Roman shades, they are composed of a fabric body that gathers up to the top of a window to create soft, billowing folds.
Soft, lightweight fabrics should be chosen for balloon shades. Balloon shades should also be lined with a light material, but not with interlining.
