Hooks Tying

Ornate Curtain Tiebacks, Holdbacks and Hooks

           Have you ever wanted to have a permanent and easy way to keep open and close your curtains without a lot of hassle? The key to a good curtain tieback (sometimes referred to as a holdback or hook) is it should be simple to use and permanent. A common technique is simply tying the curtain panel into a loose knot as a temporary solution but not only can this damage the curtain over time but it is an inefficient method for heavier curtains and time consuming to retie curtains that have come undone. Cloth tiebacks are also a possible solution but these require fitting the curtain through a small loop of fabric and pulling the curtain out again. Once again this is a time consuming method.

            Solid brass curtain tiebacks are a great solution to these problems because they are permanently installed directly into the wall and have a simple one step system. The curtain is pushed over the tieback and is easily supported by the post. Tie backs range from small to large and depending on the weight of the curtains, different styles may be more appropriate than others. 

            Hook Style: A hook style curtain tie back will have a U or V shape and is excellent for use with heavy drapery or wide curtains that have a lot of extra fabric that will need to be held back. This includes heavily embroidered fabrics and heavy materials such as velvet. This style will typically use 2 to 4 wood screws for installation. 

                                      

            Post Style: This style is a T shape when held vertically and has a post with a screw bottom that is mounted directly into the wall. These tie backs are wonderful for light weight curtains or small panels. This is great for lace, sheer or any similar fabric that will not create a large "bunch" when it is being held back.

                                 

            Curtain tiebacks have been used for centuries and can be an elegant addition to the home and your window treatments. Remember that window hardware can include a variety of pieces including sash locks, sash pull and curtain rods. Tiebacks can help to create or enhance your existing theme because many patterns are available including classic Victorian designs and contemporary patterns.
