Abstract: A curtain rod support for supporting a curtain rod and associated curtain proximate a window. The inventive device includes a pair of vertically adjustable stanchions each supported by a weighted base for positioning on laterally opposed sides of a window. An adjustable transverse support extends between the upper distal ends of the stanchions and includes a pair of mounting plates for mounting a curtain rod therebetween. The support permits a rapid installation of curtains or drapes to a window without modification of the surrounding window structure, thereby enabling apartment dwellers or renters to removably install such curtains.
