Our nailhead cornices are made to order and built to match your window size and style. You choose the fabric, shape, and nailhead finish. We’ve completed more than 1,000 custom-made window treatments and can help you create the perfect cornice as well.

What are Nailhead Cornices?
Nailhead cornices are upholstered boards that sit above your window. They hide hardware and are a great finishing touch for your draperies. The nailhead trim adds detail and style, from classic to bold, depending on your fabric and finish choice.

These cornices can be used on their own or with curtains, sheers, or shades. They add height, cover rods, and are suitable for many rooms, including living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas.

How to Measure for Nailhead Cornices

Measure the Window Width

Measure the width of the window at the top, middle, and bottom of the frame. Use the widest measurement for the cornice width.

Determine the Cornice Height

Decide how tall you want the cornice to be. Typically, cornices are between 6–12 inches high, but this can vary based on the design and the space.

Measure the Window Height (Optional)

If your cornice will cover the top of the window, measure from the top of the window frame to where you want the cornice to end.

Tip: Double-check your measurements in width by height (W x H) format to ensure accuracy.

Outstanding Service and Quality—A Lifesaver After Our Fire!

Excellent!!! The people here are so helpful and knowledgeable. We had a terrible fire and they helped us re-upholster what was left. Amazingly, old pieces now look great. They also have a large selection of fabrics that are better priced than any store we visited. Our items were also ready before expected which we are so grateful for as we really needed these pieces.

The entire experience with The Fabric Mill was great

I had always admired my Gram's chaise lounge, but after many years, the chaise was no longer usable and needed repair/reupholstering. The entire experience with The Fabric Mill was great. High touch, professional service. The before and after photos really speak for themselves.

Beautiful fabric and convenient swatch ordering

The embroidered fabric I chose for the bathroom valance and shower curtain was lovely. It helps that you can order generous sized fabric swatches for just $1 a piece to be sure the fabric is just what you want!
