Curtain Rod of Excellence

Finally!! The curtain rods for the master bedroom have been installed. And it's only been seventeen months since I bought them.

They're a very simple, streamlined design and actually intended for outdoor use.

Indoor or out, they're definitely a step up from what I had:

The old-fashioned tension rod with a sag in the middle.

 The new rod, as you can see below on the right, is solid and sag free.

The person who installed them had to customize the allen wrench and saw down part of the middle curtain rod. I wouldn't have been that ingenious so I'm glad I didn't try to put these up. It would have ended in tears and with permanently sagging drapes.

So congratulations Huron. You avoided a meltdown and got to get rid of your granny panties. Huzzah.
