Seriously the curtain rod, curtains and the rod nob are in perfect synchronization. I just loved your taste.

Hi Laura! These curtains are operational – we close them in the evening when we’re sitting in the front room. They would not be as smooth and as easy to close as other styles though. However, we really like the flat, simple look of the hidden tab so we’re willing to take the extra 5 seconds required to pull them across. Two things to keep in mind though: (1) It actually costs more to get this type of finish completed so you don’t end up saving any money in the end from not buying the rings. (2) In the 12 foot curtain rods, I noticed that there were rod widths of 1″ or 1 1/4″ and I opted for the 1″ to make it easier to pull the curtains open and shut. I hope that helps answer your question! Julie

Looks great! I love Tonic Living! Just curious as to how operational your curtains are with the hidden tabs? I love that this style doesn’t require the purchase of $$rings$$, but I need some curtains that open/close easily.

I love your curtain rod. And I love that something like this can make you happy. I have little things like this too – they just give me an “aaah” feeling. Lovely.

And they say money can’t buy happiness! Apparently, it takes 60 dollars! =)

I love the new curtain rod – it’s more fresh and modern! Happy Thanksgiving to you Julie and to your family!

@Nataliya Yes, of course, personal choice! I didn’t really want to draw the eye to the rods, but still wanted them to look pretty

ha ha, looks great The colour of curtain rods is such a personal choice. I did the opposite and went for black ones, because our ceiling are low and I wanted to draw the eye towards the ceiling. But, as I said, it’s such a personal choice I love watching the progress you’re making
