UniCurt Custom Curtains In Our Sunroom

*Today’s post was made possible by UniCurt Curtains, and features gifted product for the purposes of a candid review. All opinions are my own.

Our sunroom was the very first room that I designed in our home when we moved in two and a half years ago. Before the dust had even settled from our move, I had repainted the walls bright white, arranged the furniture how I wanted it, and replaced the ceiling fans to get the room looking juuuuust right. Another thing I did right away was hang new curtains. In my rush to get the room feeling more like “us,” I chose cheap off-the-rack curtains in a shorter length, not realizing that the truncated stature of the curtains would ultimately make this oversized room look a little squat. You may be able to see what I mean in the photos below.

The curtains were okay, but the length definitely wasn’t right for the room, and the $5 sheers that I hung in between the panels have now all started fraying around the edges. Fast forward from 2022 to 2025, and I was ready for an upgrade. I dreamed of custom length curtains that went from floor to ceiling in a heavier weight fabric that looked more sophisticated in the space. I also hoped to replace the cheap sheers with a thicker, more substantial option, topped with pleats to match our new drapes.

You may remember that I teamed up with UniCurt last year to update the curtain panels in our guest room with new affordable custom blackout curtains. We’re still absolutely in love with how those turned out, so it was a no-brainer to work with the UniCurt team again to create a similarly luxurious vibe in our sunroom. This time I decided to go for a slightly bolder look with patterned fabric as opposed to a solid since UniCurt is known for their wide variety of pattern options. Our sunroom is really large, so the room could handle a pop of pattern! You can see the samples that I ordered to consider in person pictured below.

One of the top contenders was that lovely “Monroe” design in the color “Orange Diamond,” but since I don’t really know how the design of this room will ultimately evolve (you guys know I love change!), I decided to go with a slightly more neutral option. “Giada” in “Linen Grey” was the perfect combination of bold pattern and a subdued color palette, and I thought it would offer us lots of flexibility as the design of this room shifts over time.

With the pattern chosen, it was time to get my measurements jotted down. First, I had to rehang my curtain rods up at ceiling height so I could get an accurate measurement from curtain rod to the floor, and then I used this handy measurement tool on the UniCurt website to figure out exactly what dimensions my custom drapes should be. It was super easy to input my measurements and use their guide to perfect what we ultimately needed out of the drape length, including taking into account things like curtain clip size and header style (we went with Double Pinch Pleat, by the way). We ordered our curtains with their free “Memory Shape” option to give us that tailored, pressed look, and got them unlined this time since having blackouts wasn’t necessary in this space.

Our new custom floor-to-ceiling curtains instantly made this room feel so much grander, and the breezy tailored “Fancy” sheers that we hung between them offer the perfect amount of light diffusion and privacy without totally blocking the view of our yard. I love the subtle pattern we chose, and think it will suit the design of this room as it evolves over time. This is one of those instances when photos and videos really just don’t do this update justice! You have to see it in person to appreciate just how much sophistication these new drapes add to our space.

By the way, I know it seems like a simple thing, but hanging your curtains all the way to ceiling height truly transforms the look and feel of a room. I hope you consider trying it out, and if you want to go fully custom, I couldn’t recommend UniCurt more. They specialize in having lots of affordable options to choose from, including both patterned and solid fabrics (I love that you can order physical samples ahead of making your full order!), and they make it super easy to order custom curtains from home thanks to their measurement tool. You can get free shipping worldwide, too, and even preview your chosen style on your actual window using this rendering tool. Comment with any questions you might have!
