sabrown82 I'm using 1/2" wooden dowels. I thought I'd paint them and if needed add end caps. What to use for end caps was still up in the air but then talked to my builder and found out I won't need them for the way he designed the curtain rod holder with a mini shelf all built into one unit. If I didn't have my dog in the trailer (choking hazard if one came loose) I was thinking drilling holes in super balls would be cool. The end caps would be cute, retro, round and pliable enough to remove when I want to take the curtains down to wash or change them. You can buy them in bulk. I thought I'd be able to find at least four that could work if I ordered a bag of 144. http://www.ecrater.com/p/15136849/144-bouncing-bouncy-1-balls-super-bounce?gps=1&id=18283950120

I have used similar (for towels, not curtains, though) in my home for 20 years, and I have grown fond of them. Besides that, I can paint them black to match the other painted oak trim inside the trailer. They come in two lengths, but I'll buy the one that matches the length needed (I have to measure again, lost my cheat sheet). Or I can get the cheaper one, if the dowel size matches the diameter of any I may already have in my growing wood supplies pile at home. http://www.homedepot.com/p/202044672?N=bz9q or http://www.homedepot.com/p/202044674?N=bz9q Plus, I can drill out one end cap to be able to slide the dowel in and out as needed to install the curtain or remove it, and pin it in place.
I've checked out a number of places for curtain rods that are smaller than 28" and keep coming out empty handed.
