Curtain issue-any know?
I want the drapes in my dining room to bunch more on the sides of the windows, but they keep slipping.
Does anyone know how to keep them from moving? Do they sell curtain stoppers or something?

They sell hooks for you to pin them back. Let me see if I can find them.

Re: Curtain issue-any know?
you mean up at the rod ?
Then wrap a small rubber band around the rod or use double sided tape to hold the curtains back.

double sided tape I think would work.

you can use a rubber band on the rod and then slide the fabric over it, usually works well

Thanks-but I meant up at the rod. A rubber band may work, I'll have to try that.
thanks everyone

Not sure what you mean by bunch?
I'm not explaining this well.
When you hang straight panels and you arrange them at the top to the desired width? When I do it, I get them how I want but the fabric is taffeta and kind of slipper so the fabric spreads further across the curtain rod than I want it to and the "bunching" doesn't look even.
Does that make sense?

Yes, I'd try double stick tape, and they probably sell a fabric kind at michaels...
