Made-to-Measure Curtains Designed Around Your Home
Custom drapery adds more than decoration to a room. It introduces texture, warmth, and a finished appearance while helping manage natural light and privacy. The right fabric and curtain design can complement your furniture, flooring, wall colors, and overall interior style.
At ModuShade, every drapery project is planned around the actual window opening. We help you select the appropriate fabric, pleat style, fullness, lining, and hardware to achieve the look you want. Our team measures each window on-site and installs the finished panels to create a consistent, professional appearance.
Whether you are updating one bedroom or planning curtains throughout your home, we help you find an option that suits your space and budget.

Pleat styles
Choosing a pleat style
Pinch pleat
Tailored, gathered pleats on a traditional rod, a classic, formal look that suits period and colonial interiors.
Euro pleat
A flatter, tailored pleat at the top with fuller fabric below, giving crisp verticals on rings or hooks.
Ripple fold
A continuous, even wave on a track, with no visible pleat, the standard for modern and minimal rooms.
Hardware
Rods, tracks and the hardware that disappears
Drapery hardware is either the finishing detail or invisible, rarely both by accident.
A decorative rod with finials becomes part of the room's design and suits pinch or euro pleats. A track is built to be concealed (in a recessed pocket, behind a fascia, or simply painted to match the ceiling) and is the right choice for ripple fold or any run that needs to disappear.
We choose the hardware and the pleat style together, since some pleats only work correctly on one or the other.
Proportion
Ceiling height and where the rod goes
Mounting the rod higher than the window frame and extending it beyond the opening does more for a room's proportions than almost any other single decision. It makes the ceiling feel taller and the window feel larger, and it means the glass is never covered by fabric when the panels are pulled open.
In rooms with standard ceiling heights we still push the rod up as far as trim and crown molding allow. In taller rooms with generous ceiling height, drapery can run nearly floor to ceiling for a more dramatic scale.
Made to measure
From measurement to installed panels
01
Set the rod or track position first
We decide hardware height and width before measuring the drop, since the drop is taken from the rod, not the window frame.
02
Measure the drop and fullness
Panels are cut with enough fabric fullness to fold and hang correctly, not just to cover the width of the glass.
03
Fabricate to that exact drop
Panels are sewn and hemmed to your rod height, which is why made-to-measure hangs differently than ready-made panels bought to a standard length.
04
Install and dress the panels
Hardware goes up, panels are hung, and folds are dressed by hand so they train correctly from day one.
Layering
Layering drapery with a shade at the glass
- A roller or roman shade handles daily light and privacy at the glass
- Drapery panels frame the window and stay open most of the time
- Closing both at night adds the last of the light and sound control a single treatment can't provide
- The shade and drapery fabrics are chosen together so the layers read as one design
