To measure windows for drapes, start by measuring the width of the window and multiplying by 1.5 to 3 times the width for fullness. For height, measure from the top of the window frame or curtain rod to the desired length. Add extra height if you want the drapes to pool on the floor or to hang higher above the window for a more dramatic look.
