Do You Recognize These Vintage Home Decor Objects?

Remember the good old days when curtains were more than just a window dressing? Those were the times of

old-fashioned drapery hooks, the unsung heroes of curtain hanging.

So, what exactly are these relics of the past, and why

should you consider bringing them back into your home decor game?

Drapery hooks are simple yet ingenious little contraptions used to hang curtains in a timeless manner.

They consist of two components: the hook and the prong.

The prong discreetly slides into the header of your curtain, while the hook proudly attaches to your curtain rod rings.

It’s like a dance between two partners, ensuring that your curtains stay in place with style.

Let’s break it down a bit. The prong is the main hero here – it’s the part that does the heavy lifting without stealing the limelight. This little guy secures

itself into the top part of your curtain, keeping it in place and preventing it from playing hide-and-seek every time there’s a breeze.

Now, the hook, oh the hook! This is the part that lets your curtains take center stage. It’s the showstopper,

the one that gracefully holds onto your curtain rod rings, allowing your drapes to hang with the elegance of a Broadway star hitting the stage.
