Ikea Botaren Shower Curtain Tension Rod ($8)

Another option to hang curtains without nails or screws? Use a tension rod, which relies on a spring mechanism inside the pole for support. Simply fit the tension rod inside the window or door and extend it to the right length. This no drill curtain rod from Ikea is meant for the bathroom, but would be a smart addition to any room with curtains. All that's needed to install is fitting and twisting the pole to the right length, and the rubber end caps ensure a snug fit in any window or doorway. The powdered aluminum rod comes in black and white and can expand up to 79 inches.
