Window Treatment Solution
The windows in our master bedroom proved to be a little tricky when it came to curtains. But we came up with a solution that worked well!
Each of the 3 windows in our room butts up against the roof line or a wall or both. Usually when I hang curtains, I like to go high and wide. That wasn't going to be an option here. And I didn't like the idea of roman shades.
So I decided to make a curtain rod using industrial steel pipe. But instead of it being a full rod across the window (because that wouldn't really work with our setup) I decided to make it one sided and only hang one curtain panel.
These are the parts I used to make the rod:
I now had my curtain rod, but I encountered another issue -- length. From the top of the window to the floor was about 72". Standard curtain lengths come in 63" or 84", which wouldn't do me any good.

..I havent read the remainder of the post...but I am thinking you used shower curtains ? they come in standard 72 " length. :) Great idea , and I was thinking you could use a longer pipe and add more volume with an extra curtain, if you desired to do so. :)
