You can give more importance and prominence to any window by simple hanging a curtain rod that is wider than the window. So, don’t feel like you have to cut your hockey sticks down to size to make them fit your window. Center them evenly, so that equal parts of the hockey stick reach out on either is of the window.

1 Hockey Stick
Power Drill
½ inch drill bit
2 wood curtain rod brackets or 2 metal curtain rod brackets
Curtain rod (optional)
Tape measure
Black Marker
Ok, so this simple hockey stick curtain rod can easily be made into a double curtain rod that holds 2 sets of curtains, there will instructions for this as well.
Now, the first step is to determine how wide your curtain rod will be. As said before you can use the whole hockey stick or cut off some of the handle to shorten the length.
Now, go ahead and install you wood or metal curtain hardware onto the wall, just like if you were intending to put a regular curtain rod in it.
Now, measure the distance between the two pieces of curtain hardware. Use those measurements to drill a hole in each end of your hockey stick.
