Pricing & Measuring Exercise
Customer Scenario:
Catherine likes the traditional styles offered in the Levolor program. Her window opening measurement is 72” x 89”. She wants a layered look with a rod pocket drapery and a straight cornice to complete the window. On her drapery, Catherine selected the Shaitung (Bordeaux) split draw with a trouser length application for a decorative accent. For her cornice, she has chosen the Rashida (Noir) fabric. She also wants tiebacks. She will be using her existing Kirsch 1” Basic Curtain Rod drapery hardware. What is the measurement of her draperies and cornice, what is her final cost and how would this order be entered on the order form?
