I am putting up curtains in my den, the large front triple window uses 84" panels, I have two smaller windows on opposite walls, there are baseboard heating units under each window,,would it look ok to put 63 " matching curtains on these windows to avoid covering the units.. In the past I have just used blinds and valances and 63" doesn't look right on the large window.:confused: Thanks

Hi. No, I don't think it'll look nice. They'll look better with the blinds or shades and valances. All windows in the same room should have the same length panels. If the heaters are hot water, you can cover them and you could buy deflectors if necessary. If they're electric then you can't hang anything near them.
