I just can't see an extra wide one staying up. The original poster is
talking about at least 64 inches wide and preferably 96 inches wide. Add the weight of a quality decorating fabric and your average no sew velcro is just not likely to hold up. I've never had good luck with the sticky back velcro. A 1" square of velcro, epoxied to a brick, and the other half epoxied to a wall, will hold the brick. You certainly wouldn't have to use sticky-back velcro... half could be epoxied or stapled to a piece of wood that was attached to the wall with screws or nails at the studs, etc. Still, 96" wide roman shades are going to be heavy to adjust. |
