Do roman blinds go inside or outside the window frame?

Question by Millysgirl: I’m going to hang Roman Blinds – do they go inside or outside the window frame?
I really don’t know what I’m doing, and I can see myself learning the hard way by wasting my money on blinds when I should really get a professional to fit them.. But if I did that, then I would never, never learn.
My question is: Do I buy blinds to fit inside the frame or outside, and do they hang under the frame as well?
Thank you!!

Answer by Storm
I have seen them hung both ways. I prefer to hang them on the inside of the frame.

If you have a deep set window, however, and like to sit things on the window ledge, then hang them on the outside.

How to make Roman Blinds – Roman Shades

There are different types of Roman blinds, namely common flat, balloon shades, lined shades, hobbled shades, relaxed shades, and butterfly style. Whatever the type is, they all practically deliver the same way. Tiny plastic rings are fastened at the back of a fabric, and cords go through those rings. When the cords are drawn up, the blind moves up, then it falls in pleats or folds and they add glamour to your home.
