sELECT yOuR DRApERy HEADER<br />
+ Accordia-Fold ® header styles also offer an even look from <strong>to</strong>p <strong>to</strong> bot<strong>to</strong>m,<br />
but each ripple is pleated, making them a crisper alternative <strong>to</strong> the Ripplefold<br />
headers. Buckram is necessary in order <strong>to</strong> create a crisp pleat.<br />
+ Structure: Accordia-fold headers are hung below the track on snap and can be<br />
hand or cord drawn.<br />
+ Advantages: Can be used as a substitute <strong>to</strong> traditional partitions, delivers a clean,<br />
uniform look front-<strong>to</strong>-back, best stacking rations, and highest stacking depth of all<br />
header styles.<br />
shirred<br />
+ Shirred headers add elegance and texture <strong>to</strong> draped surfaces.<br />
+ Structure: shirred headers are tightly gathered <strong>to</strong>gether. As a result, the overall<br />
body of the draped surface is less structured and more organic than many of the<br />
other header options. These are most often shirred directly over or on<strong>to</strong> a rod.<br />
+ Advantages: Adds drama <strong>to</strong> the window plane and lends <strong>to</strong> spaces where extra<br />
fullness is desired.<br />
+ Add: Decorative rods or rod finials <strong>to</strong> amplify the drama.<br />
Grommet<br />
+ Grommet headers create a uniform, structured look that is both modern and<br />
functional.<br />
+ Structure: Equidistant circles are cut in<strong>to</strong> the <strong>to</strong>p of a draped fabric. Then circular<br />
metal grommets are secured within each one so that a curtain rod can slide right<br />
through with ease.<br />
+ Advantages: Clean look with built in hardware that can be used in both residential<br />
and corporate interiors.<br />
+ Add: metal grommet in different finishes <strong>to</strong> complement color and material of<br />
draped fabric and rod.<br />
