Should I choose curtains or blinds for my bedroom?

The bedroom is the perfect place for full length, interlined curtains. Of all the rooms in the house, this is where you should choose curtains rather than blinds. When you go to bed on a winter evening it is lovely to draw the curtains and shut out the cold and darkness. The curtain heading we would recommend for a bedroom is a cottage pleat one, for a soft gentle look. Some suggestions for bedroom curtains are Cow Parsley, Berries and Leaves, Lattice Leaf, and Fruit Garden, just to name a few. Interlined curtains for a bedroom are a must; insulating against heat loss and also giving a more luxuriant look. Here we would suggest you use our Made to Measure Lampshade service and choose coordinating fabrics for your bedside lampshades.

Which of your fabrics suits a bedroom?

All of our fabrics are suitable for bedrooms, however, it is really down to the space itself. Herbaceous Border Detail from the Botanical Collection is a good choice for country homes, especially for large windows with its beautiful gentle flowers in soft pastel colours. For more modern homes, something geometric like the Lattice Leaf, Wild Fern, Shibori, or Up the Garden Path would be a better suit.

Favourite colours for decorating a bedroom are Duck Egg, Hay, Buttercup and Pigeon and Powder Blue and Damson pink.

We can make all soft furnishings for your bedroom through our Made to Measure service.
