It is prepared using Extraforum. Cornige Buttons are Shipped with Extraforance Attached. You Can Take It Directly Out of the Package, Attach it to the Cornice and Use It Without Any Process. If you want pleated as a side backdrop, you can contact us from the Ask a Question section. THE FIRST WRITE OF PRODUCT DIMENSIONS IS THE HEIGHT.
