Where can I get the best deals on window curtains?

Looking for cheap discount sheers, blinds, and panels. Anyone know where to get closeouts on these. Prefer not to shop online. Large metropolitan area nearby. Thanks.

I would try the discount outlet places:

Ross, TJ Maxx, Steinmart, Tuesday Morning, etc. They usually specialize in decor items. These will usually be mismatched designer pieces.

You can also check the dollar stores, Big Lots, and the Wal-Mart type places for lower quality.

You can get fabric on clearance at Walmart, sometimes 1 dollar a yard in big amounts to get the windows covered. Window treatments are not complicated, it is straight line sewing…so it would be an easy project for almost anyone. You can even use iron adhesives, or tape for a no sew project.

Should I buy window coverings before I buy windows?

I need to replace old windows in my new home, but the old windows have either broken coverings or none at all. New windows cost a lot more than coverings so financially it would be easier to buy new window coverings and wait a year or more. However, if I buy nice window coverings first, will they be obsoleted if the new windows are a different size? For example, what if the new windows require new window frames? Or would I have to get the windows sized to the coverings?

Should I just hang up temporary fabric as covering until I can get new windows?

Every window offers a different size and challenge for draperies or other window treatments. It depends on their overall size and their framing. It depends on whether you will be doing blinds and if you do will you hang them on the inside or outside of the frame. There are many variables. If you are not replacing the windows for a year or more and still need treatments due to privacy issues, buy something that works now. Just don’t spend too much money as there is a good chance your new windows will require different window treatments.
