went to baagus ytd to get the first quote, nearly fall off my chair. will cost me bout RM4.5k to do curtains for my whole hse! or was i jus naive to believe that curtains r not that exp? looks like i hav to live on bread & water for the next few mths! they recommended the bendable track for bay windows. for kitchen windows, the recommended those 'pull blinds' for living room & masterbedroom, double layer. Added on October 28, 2010, 11:43 amigax - how was this done with wooden rod? http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=184...00.183991179245from your fb! thanks!

QUOTE(IGax2000 @ Oct 28 2010, 09:44 PM) of course bagus expensive lar, branded mar if u use normal curtain track for all of ur hse, double layer then kitchen using mini blinds Might cost less than that figure. Somehow depends the curtain material u choose wooden rod can install at bay window by using bay corner joint oh, tats nice. wud it cost alot more to have wooden rod vs normal track? I do love the wooden rod feel as oppose to jus norm curtain track. but any qualms on using wooden rod? my mom experience is that the rod went lopsided after a while (coz curtain too heavy i suppose?) Baagus is "branded' ke? never knew tat. paiseh

QUOTE(numbertwo @ Nov 8 2010, 01:40 PM) kath..material and cost varies I suppose.. I went to a curtain shop yesterday...a cheap material (imported too) cost slightly more than a K for our main sliding door 12ft x 8"..a better imported material would cost us 3K.. so is hard to tell unless we are comparing the same material.. the mat i used are mostly from china i suppose. not italian/turkey, etc. how do you define 'better' material in context of curtain? thicker?
