What does 2.5 fullness mean?

The fabric is gathered to about 2.5 times the finished panel width. A 40-inch finished panel uses roughly 100 inches of fabric, which gives deeper pleats and a fuller hang than 2x panels.

COM means customer's own material. You supply the fabric and the workroom cuts and sews the drapes from it, so the color, weight and texture are your choice.

How do I measure for pinch pleat drapes?

Measure the rod width and the drop from the rod to where you want the hem, then decide the finished panel width. Because these are custom, order the finished width you want rather than the flat fabric width.

Are hooks and rings included?

Usually not. Pinch pleat drapes typically need pleat hooks and rings or a track carrier, which are commonly sold separately, so check before ordering.

Will lightweight fabric work?

It can, but thin or limp fabric may not hold crisp pleats. Medium-weight fabrics like linen blends, cotton canvas or wool hold the pleat shape better.
