And I'm a practical girl, so especially with children and a dog - and the hassle when you vacuum, always having to adjust ... they look lovely and I would have never thought them too short. If you're wanting to change the look, go for it, but they do not need changing in my opinion :)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06610465664609701341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-82073078459374621082012-07-12T21:26:30.060-04:002012-07-12T21:26:30.060-04:00Lengthen them but can you do the white at the top?...Lengthen them but can you do the white at the top??

Bonus it will already be hemmed.

Any way you could let out a little hem and move the hardware down?? The practical side of me says drapes too long get in the way of the vacuum, and white at the bottom will get dirty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-52061207785849700742012-07-11T13:29:56.883-04:002012-07-11T13:29:56.883-04:00lengthen! :)lengthen! :)Jessica @ This Blessed Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00465333299613687298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-36303986328819339022012-07-11T11:15:55.996-04:002012-07-11T11:15:55.996-04:00Lengthen :)Lengthen :)Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13299755419443586491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-24631789229297860162012-07-11T10:12:46.216-04:002012-07-11T10:12:46.216-04:00I have never been a fan of the pile of drapes on t...I have never been a fan of the pile of drapes on the floor. My perfectionist side sees it as curtains hung too low or bought/made too long. I think they are perfect as is. =) I love your blue color scheme by the way!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-5452808258420734852012-07-11T09:25:54.735-04:002012-07-11T09:25:54.735-04:00Lengthen :) You need a little 'puddle' on ...Lengthen :) You need a little 'puddle' on the floor.Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03911106763979056983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-43018349091582038872012-07-11T08:52:26.653-04:002012-07-11T08:52:26.653-04:00Hmmm...I could see where you would want them longe...Hmmm...I could see where you would want them longer but they do look fine like this...keeps them out of the way when you vacuum!Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09376889141903161184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1280055926973864199.post-56280877817235128752012-07-11T07:54:21.425-04:002012-07-11T07:54:21.425-04:00If you want an honest answer, I say yes absolutely...If you want an honest answer, I say yes absolutely lengthen it will add a whole new dimension and feel to them, to me they are a little short.
