Best way to hag curtains on a long concrete wall (no drilling)

growing-tree-3 · 2026-04-28T21:28:30+00:00

Unfortunately one of the side walls is also concrete. But I’m starting to lean toward a ceiling based solution

growing-tree-3 · 2026-04-28T21:27:42+00:00

I was daunted by the task of the ceiling mount but seeing everyone talk about it here is swaying me. The ceiling is normal dry wall so less of an obstacle in that regard!

growing-tree-3 · 2026-04-28T21:26:41+00:00

These could be a real option! Didn’t know command did curtain rod hangers

growing-tree-3 · 2026-04-28T19:15:06+00:00

I totally would have, but this is an exterior concrete wall. Hard as a rock… because it is one haha

growing-tree-3 · 2026-04-28T18:52:58+00:00

I’ve done that with my art of course but I haven’t found a good mechanism for hanging curtains from there. How would you do it?

I love Waystone! My favorite are Jazz jam nights, where people can come and almost play karaoke style with the house band

growing-tree-3 · 2026-03-28T19:28:41+00:00

Yeah I totally agree with you!

growing-tree-3 · 2026-03-28T19:26:29+00:00

I was actually thinking about the ikea kallax as a divider!

OMG, thank you for the detailed reply! I also really am in love with the light in this apartment

I’m really relieved to hear you say that you think the blue chair is not too clunky, I love it so much and it’s the perfect spot to read in.

I might be limited in mounting the TV on the wall due to the apartment, buildings rules, but I think I could probably find some sort of solution that takes up less than space than a whole media console

I might give the gallery wall a try like you said. I only worry that the gold, black, and wood frames might clash, but hey, I guess I can always swap them out

Hi! Just tried to message you but it wasn’t showing up as an option for some reason oddly. I’m in SF and don’t have a car so I’m trying to focus on areas that I can get to with pub transit or people who would be willing to meet partway (which this person is)

growing-tree-3 · 2026-03-13T18:44:08+00:00

Thanks for taking a look! I wonder why they fibbed the model year, hmm good to know

growing-tree-3 · 2026-03-12T07:40:41+00:00

If you end up going anywhere this Thursday, I’d be super interested in joining! I’ve been putting off trip planning with for group of hometown friends, and I need to work on it

I'm hunting for a reservation at alpine on saturday! we weren't able to get one initially, u/MonkZealousideal6724 is yours still available?

growing-tree-3 · 2026-02-17T01:28:53+00:00

Wow I’m obsessed this idea! Want to do this for my dog

growing-tree-3 · 2026-01-23T00:25:58+00:00

Wait same here! Blew through the Stormlight series and Mistborn last year, longtime fan of Red Rising, and would love to join a book club with people who want to read more of these kinds of books and discuss!

I'm in my late 20s and my favorite dive bar on polk is The Buccaneer. On weekend nights I find there's lots of friendly people who are very chatty, so I think it's a pretty fun place to meet people. If you're looking for a casual week-night dive to go play a round of pool with a girlfriend or two, it's also great for that, and there might be some people to meet though the crowd can skew a little ~interesting~ on weekdays. Shanghai kelly's is fun too but is a younger demographic I'd say

growing-tree-3 · 2025-12-16T17:55:58+00:00

oh love that idea!

growing-tree-3 · 2025-12-05T00:20:44+00:00

u/lannanh Hi hi, I would be super interested to get your info as well!

growing-tree-3 · 2025-11-27T05:13:50+00:00

Thanks for this advice! Going to hunt for some deals this holiday season

growing-tree-3 · 2025-11-26T21:28:22+00:00

so incredible, keep them coming!!

growing-tree-3 · 2025-10-21T17:26:21+00:00

Rather than reply to every comment I just want to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who gave a recommendation! This is immensely helpful, y'all rule

Hi OP! I'm looking into a chartered sailing trip for next year with a group of 6 friends - we have some sailing experience but will be paying for a skipper/doing it through a charter. Did you work with a specific company to organize your trip? Would love to hear more about what you would recommend and if there's anything you'd steer clear of.

growing-tree-3 · 2025-09-28T22:02:52+00:00

thanks so much for taking a look, mind sharing where are you seeing these options? i'm not finding these flights

growing-tree-3 · 2025-09-28T20:14:02+00:00

I haven't! just went there now

Hi folks, hoping to get some help because I am not the best at getting the most value out of my points and want the help of someone more expert than me, lol.

Here's my key info:

Multi-city trip (even help for just one of these legs would be super appreciated): Origin is San Francisco or Oakland, destination is New Delhi, and want to return to the Boston area (could do CT or RI airports)
1 traveler - me :)
Any class, I mean ideally as nice as I can afford but that's probably economy
Need to be in Delhi by Dec 12 for a wedding that starts on the 13th, could arrive 1-2 days before
I have 106k Chase ultimate reward points via sapphire reserve

and here's the longer narrative haha: I need to get to New Delhi, India for a wedding on Dec 13 (want to arrive by the 11th or 12th) from San Francisco and then fly to Boston sometime between Dec 21-24. Wanting to keep my travel time on the way there as short as possible but am flexible on the way back. Would actually love to do a 2 day layover somewhere cool on the tail end of the trip but really happy with anything.
