[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I reread your original post. So the curtains are going to hang behind a cabinet? And you can’t just move the cabinet forward? I’m having trouble picturing why this is a good idea. Maybe a Roman shade instead on that window?

Or even a tie back for the curtains? The tie back could be closer to the wall, and then the curtains won’t hang straight down?

But I’m still not seeing how curtains behind a cabinet will work, personally. [/quote]

It's an actual mid-century, old house, with quirks.

I don't need to open and close the curtains daily - I plan on just using simple white cotton to diffuse light or add some accenting. [/quote]

But the quirk is a free standing cabinet? If it were me, I would do a Roman shade instead of curtains hanging behind a cabinet if you can’t cheat the cabinet forward to make room. I think you need them to have a little breathing room to make that work?

Is it this kind of a situation?
