[@Lawviathan]

Thank you! Wife is coming home in 30 minutes, and I said I would hang the curtains up today! Done with lots of time left! You rock.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Nice job pumping it out before she got home!! I bet they turned out great! Thanks for sharing 🤙

[@Lawviathan]

@ColtonCrumpDIY I'll find out soon enough!! Haha, 6 inch by 6 inch rule of thumb is golden.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Talk to me Goose. Appreciate it

[@shonnettewalker7678]

Just hung up my first curtain rod thanks to you!! This video was very quick and easy. Although one step I had to google was to tap the anchor into the wall with a rubber mallet. Thank you so much!

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Smart! Great advice and nice job on hanging your curtain rods! Thanks for watching and commenting and glad this was helpful.

Thank you for this video. It gave me the confidence I needed to hang my curtain rod.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Yes!!! You're so welcome and this project is easier than you think. Best of luck and you got this!!

[@ginburke3158]

Doesn't say how to drill the holes for the anchors.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Good point. Get a bit that is the right size for your anchors, drill in. Ba da bing ba da boom

[@bornwithbsguards]

If my ceiling isn't level, is there something I should do? Or will it be noticeable? About a half inch difference from the ceiling on either side.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Honestly this is wear you have some wiggle room. You could have curtains chosen out, hold those up, and position it where you want to curtains to be: touching the floor, dragging, or above. With that said... youre going to have your rod be a hard parallel line that would catch more people's attending or eyes, thus maybe leading attention to that your ceiling is not level. But then if the framing around your window is level, you have to choose, be even with the window, be even with the ceiling, or find a happy medium. If it were me, I default to, do the job right, make it level. If it's too bad, no harm. If it's noticeable and will bug you, do a gradual incline so it's less noticeable and your curtains still look evenly balanced on the floor

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Hahaha appreciate it! I'll try to not let you down with future videos.

[@AriousM]

Oh my god I almost ended it all last week trying to hand these dang curtains up … I wish I would’ve had sense enough to look up a video… I thought i was grown and tried to do it with no guidance 😂

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Did you eventually get them installed though?! Hope this video was kind of helpful?

[@ddddds4690]

Didnt know it was this easy! Thank you! ❤

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

So easy! You're welcome! Thanks for watching!!

[@DashGMoto]

hello what is the length of your curtain rods thank you.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Hello! I believe they were like somewhere between 72 to 80 inches. I put a few options in the description that might be helpful on what you're looking for. Hope this helps!

[@followmetoglory]

Do you have drill the holes on wood or can it be on the drywall? Installed some last week and they fell. Maybe the curtains are too heavy?

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Great question. I always prefer to secure everything I'm doing like curtain rods into wood. But it doesn't always line up that way. That's where the drywall anchors come into play and help reinforce it. If you're doing it into drywall, I'd suggest anchors. Something like this amzn.to/44TVoS3

[@followmetoglory]

@@ColtonCrumpDIYinstalled with anchors and still fell. I’ll look to place it on wood if possible. Ty sir

[@thaliadanielag]

Thanks! I had enough of the adhesive ones when my curtain rod fell and smacked me right on the forehead

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

100% don't go with the adhesive solution. This is much more sturdy. Hope you're okay!

[@oscarbonilla8718]

What about the studssss? Don’t u have to find the studs in order to make holes in the wall?

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Not necessarily. I prefer to fasten to studs a much as I can as it provides much more stability. When it comes to curtain rods, they are almost always pretty lightweight. So you can use drywall anchors and then fasten into those.

[@ninaG-u6k]

You explained this perfectly. thank you so much

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thank you!! Appreciate the kind words and thanks for watching and commenting.

[@such_a_delight9748]

[@bodyMoves-u8n]

Thank you! No more curtains tacked into the wall lol

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Woo! I'm familiar with that look haha. You are welcome and thanks for commenting and watching!

[@alexsanchez2493]

Hey Colton love the videos quick question. How do I bid on floor and shower tile ??

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Are you asking how to do a job bid so someone can pay you that amount to install floor tile or for a shower? Or you bidding on actual material needed to do a job?

[@weekendhomeprojects]

Beautifully done! Good work.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thank you! I do appreciate the compliment and taking time from your day to watch and comment.

[@strawburybounce]

Really nicely explained, thank you

Welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@lloydd1386]

Awesome bro!

[@mayasamish7240]

This is perfect

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Boo ya! Thank you and thanks for watching / commenting

[@kennyli4319]

the screw won't go into the stud

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Have you tried turning it on and off again? Haha. Kidding. Could be a few things: 1. The screw isn't grabbing because not enough pressure is being applied while getting to screw it in 2. It's not grabbing because the material behind your sheetrock isn't actually wood. Could be a plaster, a metal sheet or something else that a wood screw wouldn't normally grab 3. There is something obstructing it like a water pipe, pex, pvc clean out drain, etc. I would highly recommend trying to understand where any potential pipes or material your house is made up of to see if you are able to complete this project. This is just a demonstration of one way to complete this project. So if you have concerns or any issues, I would consult a local general contractor in your area. Best of luck!!

[@kimlong6567]

Great video but you went through it to fast 😅 thanks though

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thanks for the feedback!! Appreciate you watching and complimenting :)

[@sophiac8824]

😢 I needed help putting on the finial/ends ha ha

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Sometimes those can be the most annoying part where you think its tight enough but then keep twisting just a bit more and it just keeps spinning and the next thing you know, you have the finial in your hand the and bolt with the threads still there. Haha. Hope you got it figured out!!! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@Marinochka321]

Wtf. Where does it say how to make sure it's straight

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Do you mean where I talk from 1:14 to 1:35? Or at 2:03?

[@k.b.7575]

Would have been much nicer had you gone slower!

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Sorry! I was in a rush. Haha. I'll keep that in mind next time.

[@wojapi7538]

@@ColtonCrumpDIY you were fine. I totally get overwhelmed with these videos that take 10 min to get to the point. Will follow your channel

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thank you! I appreciate it!

[@MORGANSMOM0403]

What i do is i slow the speed of the video down. Also just pause where you want to look at something. Lastly i will turn on closed captioning, then stop the video too. Lots of different ways to get what you want out of a video. I like the speed of his, maybe a bit slower yes, but at least hes not dragging out every detail like some. Best ones are middle speed, then speed up the long boring parts, so we see them but dont need to see details.
