Hi, my name is Anne and I am ABLE Soft Furnishings. I have a passion for making curtains, roman blinds and other soft furnishings, which I have been doing for over 15 years.
Choosing the right window treatment requires an eye for choosing the right style and size of curtain or blind, to selecting the perfect colour and pattern.
Not only does the design need to be attractive but it will ultimately dictate the light that’s cast into the space, so a versatile window dressing is your best option.
When it comes to window dressing ideas for bedrooms, blackout roman blinds and/or curtains are a popular option as they are lined to prevent extra light from pouring into the room and spoiling your sleep.
For single-glazed windows or those that are prone to draughts, full-length curtains in a thick fabric with thermal/blackout lining will help to increase the insulation.
The little details can make your curtains, blinds or cushions really stand out. By adding a trim to both the side of the curtain and to the heading the eye is drawn upwards giving the illusion of height to a space. Choose a colour that coordinates with the curtain design and also works with the colours in the room. It makes the whole scheme more cohesive.
