Awesome informed and detailed video. 👍

[@bakhodirgosset2691]

Thank you for this video. Very useful and helpful. Any chance to show how to do inner corners?

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

yes to continue a wall usually you can do a back tack or a blind tack - I have videos of both on my channel

[@portiafreeman-yn4xi]

Why don’t you recommend velvet?

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

Absolutely Not! Sure it will look great but it's not easy. Even with 24 years of experience, Its a real pain to install

[@KristiHayden-ph5qm]

If you have a fireplace mantle and a door frame to cut out on the same wall, should one be done first? The fireplace mantle sticks out so much further than the door. Also, do you do the same process to cut out the mantle as the door frame?

Out of curiosity how much weight could these hold if say a cat were to climb them? We purposefully would like to somehow mount a rug/carpet onto the wall so our tree-loving but indoor-only cat can do his thing and be a happy little boy

Hey now can I use this method to cover up the installation on the ceiling?...today is 7-26-24..thank you..seeing it..Awesome

[@annettebrandt9603]

Hi guy, how did you finish the fabric on the door frame?

[@KristiHayden-ph5qm]

Any tips for going around fireplace mantles or cornices since they are not 90 degree angles? THANK YOU for your detailed step by step instructions!

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

It is easier if you’re doing a welt, trim or gimp. Use a contour gauge to get the shape. Transfer the shape to 1/4” plywood and cut out with a gig saw.

[@KristiHayden-ph5qm]

Thank you! We were planning on using a cord to cover. Is wood lattice still necessary if we are doing that? Or can I staple directly into drywall and cover with the cord? Thank you so much helping us novices!

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

@@KristiHayden-ph5qm I wouldn’t recommend not using the wood lattice. Unless it’s going to be temporary.

[@kristenbloem7418]

Thank you for such thorough instructions! Questions: How do you hide the staples at top? Are the edges of the fabric around the door frame and along base boards cut edges, and how do you conceal them? I subscribed! Thank you!

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

Trim or welt all around except the inside and outside corners. I hope that answers your question if not let me know please

[@norawoods1334]

Could you make portable backgrounds for photo shoots

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

Could I make them? Yes I have made them.

How much fabric would you need for a 12 x 15 room?

[@sefer-nv6cn]

HI, if my wall is plastered brick how do I stick the dacron onto the wall? Do I use additional wooden slats or should I use adhesive instead?

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]

@@sefer-nv6cn you can use spray glue for the dacron

[@HarrisonFein]

Any way to prevent seeing staples? For example it looks like the staples around the door are visible

[@NYDRAPERYGUY8000]
