What height are curtain pulls(hooks) and tassles supposed to be hung at? They are regular 84" curtains...?

I got the curtain pulls like a metal hook that you screw into the wall and you push the curtain onto... Then I also have some tassles that came with hooks too... What height are they supposed to be at? Please help...

I think that you are talking about tiebacks, I usually put them about 36%26quot; from the floor, keeping in line with the outside edge of curtain. but you can do what looks best in your space.There is no set rule anyway I dont think Martha Stewart is coming over !But I do this for a living, and thats the usual height I install the hooks for tiebacks. you can change them if you dont like it , just spackle the hole. or have someone hold them and stand back and look
Reply:36 inches is the rule of thumb.
Reply:It depends how high your window is. I just saw a designer on TV on Monday and he said to make them even with the window sill unless the window goes farther down, about 30inches of the floor, then he suggest to do them a bit lower. But it looked to strange to me. Mine are the same as the window sill. Try it by letting someone hold them and see if the proportion is ok.
