Doorstops

If you're looking for an easy way to hang a curtain
without mounting brackets, get a tension rod that will fit
the width of the window and pull your drape over the rod.
Once the curtain is in place, all you have to do is secure
the tension rod into the window frame, and straighten out
the curtain. 
If you need a way to hide that tension rod for tab top or
sheer curtains, slip it through a copper pipe for those
tab tops, or a PVC pipe for the sheers. 
An easy window treatment for the bathroom is to buy three
nice cotton shower curtains. Use one for the shower and
the others for the window. It's the perfect match, and if
you buy the kind with tie tops you don't have to worry
about curtain hooks. Plus, you know they'll stand up to
the moisture in the bathroom because that's exactly what
they were designed for.
