    Add a border at the bottom in an accent color.

    Sew a strip of contrasting or complementary fabric on the bottom in the width you need.

    Easy peasy. Attach fabric to the bottom. You can use fabric glue or if you know how to sew, you can sew it on. Good luck.

    I would add a complimentary panel at bottom and top for balance. Since you're talking about a small amount of additional, I would use a fabric color already in my room's "pallette". I might even find additional items (like a pillow or throw) to use that same fabric on or in to maintain the decor theme.

      Thanks for the great idea of adding color that are already on things like pillows. Great suggestions.

    Just add a strip of fabric of your choice on the bottom of the curtains

    Obviously you will need to add fabric to your existing curtains in order to make them longer. I agree with Connie. Use that same fabric to make pillows. That's what a designer would do. Best of luck to you.

    Hi! You could add the fabric at the top or bottom depending on the look you want. Depending on the fabric of your curtains and the look you want, adding a border shouldn't be too difficult. Stay safe!
