Abstract: A bracket for securing an elongated support member elevated against a wall or adjacent a ceiling for attachment of a window or wall covering, is described. The bracket comprises a single flat metal piece bent to form a top horizontal flange and an integrally formed vertical flange. Holes are provided in at least one of the flanges to receive fasteners therethrough for securement of the bracket. The top horizontal flange has an elongated flat stem punched therefrom and bent out of an inner surface thereof to extend downwardly at an angle about 90° thereto and spaced forwardly of the vertical flange. A plurality of thread indentations are formed in opposed side edges of the stem whereby to receive and retain a threaded nut about the stem.
