My house is a 1930s craftsman style with thick moldings on the windows.
Curtains above crown molding.
The living and dining room have beautiful moulding that goes all around the ceiling.
The distance between top of dining room windows and moulding is about 4 it s around 3 in the living room.
My molding is way far away from the ceiling and the molding sticks out from the wall at least 4 inches.
Should i also hang the curtains from the moldings.
Treat the transom and the larger window as one unit and hang the drapes a 4 to 6 inches above the top of the transom.
Or hang the rod higher and wider covering some of the pretty molding.
I love this post.
Any help would be appreciated.
Add 12 of additional rod to each side of the window so that your curtains are not covering more of the view than necessary.
If you flip through the after photos on our house tour page check out that tab under the header you ll see that in many rooms we hang the curtains about an inch from the ceiling or right under the crown molding so an inch or two higher definitely wouldn t hurt.
If the window is less than 6 from the ceiling and there is no crown molding then ceiling mounting the drapery is best.

Hang curtains right in front of the molding drilling the bars right into the molding.
If you have crown molding mount the curtain rod right beneath the crown molding.
Showcasing molding when you have wide ornate crown molding it s a shame to cover it with fabric.
