Whether for your bedroom, living room or bathroom, curtains and blinds can offer just as much to the design of a room as the furniture. Curtains can add instant cosiness or grandeur. Blinds use a fraction of the fabric needed for curtains, but the variety of styles and textiles available means they don't have to fall short on impact, give your windows some love!
Centre stage
This 'Deniz' linen/cotton, combining the curtains with a roman blind in a small pattern creates a decorated look, but the simple shapes stop it looking fussy.
Elevated style
These Italian strung curtains, in the bedroom, have a goblet-pleated header design. They are fixed in position at the top and then drawn up and down using a cord. The look is quite traditional and very pretty.
Gather together
The soft gathered pelmet and thick jacquard curtains in this bedroom are perfect for a country bedroom. When rooms are not especially high, it looks good if the pelmet goes right up to the ceiling, as seen here.
Plain sailing
Patterned walls with duck-egg blue interlined linen curtains with triple pleat headings, hung from a simple white pole. If you are undecided about the amount of fabric falling on the floor, try slightly 'baggy trousers' as shown.
Back in fashion
Some rooms require a relaxed edge and these provide that softness, a simple linen print that looks charming and not at all like a Viennetta.
Bold Orange & White Wool Curtain
Reminiscent of the artist Matisse's paper cuts - has been applied to a pale wool curtain.
