I washed my drapes and now they are too short! I think if I take down the hem they might still be too short.. What can I do? I don't think there is any fabric that will match. I bought them at Sears and now they are discontinued.. Grrr!!!

How short is too short?

Hang them wet or iron them.

You could return them to sears...they are good about that or the banding idea would be nice.

it happened to me once. :( I just bought new drapes, but the banding is a great idea.
