Did you know you can hang curtains without installing permanent hooks? This home hack for hanging curtains is great for homeowners and renters alike. A few simple steps will have curtains hung in no time!

Use command hooks and a curtain rod with a heavy load capacity. Take a square piece of paper or cardboard and cut out a corner to match the corner of the window. Decide the height you want the curtain to be mounted above the window and mark the cardboard. Make holes where you’ve marked. Place the cardboard on the wall and mark through the holes, onto the actual wall. Do this for both sides. Attach the command hook to the wall mount. Place the command hook and wall mount on the wall, lining them up with the marks you’ve made. Wait thirty minutes for the command hook to become secure and hang your curtains.
