curtains and radiators

8 years ago

I have curtains that are long enough to reach the floor. The window is almost wall length with only about 4-6 " wall area above and below it and it is 122" wide. Under the window there is an electric radiator....one of those long heaters.

Since we will now be using the electric heat, should I hang the curtains so that they are above the radiaor. It may look odd but I want to be safe. I need the sunlight to shine in during the day. The curtains will be open in the daytime so no problem there but they need to be closed at night for privacy. Just not sure having the bottom above the heater is a good look. Maybe I should just go w/o any drapery. Maybe I should add some kind of shades that let you see out but people can't see in. Maybe I should do those window coatings. What are your thoughts?
