How to Layer Curtains with Sheers?
Do you want to layer curtains with the set of sheers and drapes? The sheer curtains are very light and hence can be layered up with any heavy curtains to add depth and enhance your space.
Choose the Right Layers
For choosing the curtain layers, start with selecting the base layer and outer layer. The sheer curtains are common layering with the heavier opaque curtains or blackout curtains. The sheer curtains will add privacy meanwhile let the light in during day time. They can be layered with a double curtain rod or double brackets.
Select the Size of Curtains
For selecting the size, you can choose from five lengths which are:
Sill Length curtains finish 1" above the window sill
Below sill length curtains finish 1" above a radiator if one is located below the window
Floor length curtains finish 1" above the floor
Break Length the curtains just “kiss” the floor which requires accurate measuring
Puddle length the curtains can puddle up on the floor to add a luxury and formal look.

Layer the Curtains
Install the curtain fitting such as double brackets or double curtain rods which should extend at least 6"-10" to either side of the window, and 6" above the top of the window.
Now assemble the base and outer layer in the order. Make the sheer curtain as the base layer. Then make the blackout curtain or the thicker curtain as the outer layer.
