Self aligning curtain rod bracket

A bracket for supporting a curtain rod at a point on an inside wall surface, above and laterally outside a corner of a framed opening in the wall, the corner being defined by said inside wall surface and by vertical and horizontal framed opening surfaces, said inside wall surface and said vertical and horizontal framed opening surfaces being mutually perpendicular and meeting at said corner, said bracket comprising:

• a front mounting plate having a rear surface which is mounted flush against said inside wall surface, adjacent to the opening, said front mounting plate extending laterally outwardly from the corner and above and below the corner, on the inside wall surface;
• a side mounting flange which depends rearwardly from said front mounting plate at a position spaced from an end of the front mounting plate, the side mounting flange having a rear surface that is perpendicular to the rear surface of the front mounting plate and is mounted flush against one of said vertical and horizontal framed opening surfaces, the side mounting flange having a top edge that is perpendicular to the front mounting plate and spaced from the end of the front mounting plate, the right angle edge being abutted against the other of said vertical and horizontal framed opening surfaces at the corner, for positioning and plumbing the bracket relative to the corner;
• at least one support arm extending outwardly from a front surface of said mounting plate for engaging the curtain rod and positioning the curtain rod parallel to the horizontal framed opening surface;
• and
• a non-penetrating attaching means for securing said bracket to at least one of said inside wall surface and said vertical and horizontal framed opening surfaces.
