Made to Measure Curtains

Which pinks do you recommend for curtains?

Pink curtains can offer an exciting and vibrant finish. Mixing soft shades such as Mallow and Lily Pink with the stronger shades of Sweet Pea and Damson, is so delicate and indulgent. Our pink curtains are cheery, sophisticated, and pretty.

Sweet Pea is Vanessa's brightest and most strident pink and makes up striking pink patterned curtains in Plain Linen Union. 

Damson pink is a bluer softer tone and features as the mid pink shade in so many of our designs, see Fruit Garden, In Full Flight, Gypsy Garland, and Cow Parsley designs, to name just a few! It makes the most beautifully delicate soft pink curtains which is why it is Vanessa's favourite soft pink fabric.

Mallow is halfway to Lily pink, and this pink upholstery fabric can make stunning curtains for a playroom. See designs Little Fern, and Lattice Leaf.

Lily Pink is the softest prettiest pink, and is available in Branching Out, Wild Fern, Lapland Stripe, Berries and Leaves, Dotty Check, Lattice Leaf, and Little Fern designs.

Dusky Pink has a more vintage feel with more brown mixed in with it, as seen on the Pretty Maids, and Up the Garden Path designs. 

How to decorate with pink curtains

Think of pink as a neutral — it works with any decorating scheme, multiple shades of pink combined with crisp white creates a warm and cosy feel in a bedroom. With the patterns used, stay away from overtly childish themes, sticking instead to classic rose pink floral fabrics for a timeless look that can age with your child. See the Lazy Daisy and Wild and Free designs.

Colours that complement pink

A match made in heaven are pinks and greens! A touch of green can ground a pink decorating scheme, such as the Kale in Fruit Garden Detail, Wild and Free, Simple Ticking Detail, and Sepals and Petals. Give a natural look a garden spin, with blooms of pink. Mix with plenty of light wood tones, neutral linen fabrics. Try pink and green fabrics in more muted tones for a formal living room: Kale and Damson in fruit Garden, mix beautifully with wicker furniture.

Pinks also like to be paired with softer shades of grey, such as Scree and Clay in For the Love of Rose, French Ticking, and the large bird print on In Full Flight.

Dusky Pink is a vintage pink curtain fabric: Pink here is really faded red; it’s pink with a past, like a colour that has softened over the years, which gives the room a mature, wise air.
