Curtains

‘Curtains are never in or out of style. Like fashion, interiors go through cycles - but good design is always about what feels right in a space, not just what’s in fashion. Some styles of curtains might come and go, but curtains themselves? They’re timeless. It’s all about choosing the right curtain for the right room.’

- Molly Freshwater, Co-Founder

Curtains do all sorts of wonderful things. They keep the light out, give you a bit of privacy, help you snooze in peace, and add a splash of colour and texture to your lovely space.

Hanging them might seem a bit fiddly, but don’t worry, we’ve put together a simple, step-by-step curtain hanging guide to help you get that just-right drape without any drama. Curtain bliss, right this way...

All of our lovely curtains are a doddle to care for. Most can go straight into your washing machine at home, just like your bed linen. Easy peasy. The only ones that like a little extra TLC are our blackout curtains. They’re best left to the pros, just to keep that clever lining working its magic.

Pop over to our curtain care guide for all the nitty-gritty on keeping your new curtains looking their best.

Getting your curtain measurements spot on can be tricky. But don’t worry, it’s not as hard as it sounds.

For the width, a good rule of thumb is to go for curtains that are about 1.5 to 2 times the width of your window. That way, you’ll get that lovely, full look we all adore. Then there’s the length… Do you fancy your curtains just skimming the floor, or puddling dreamily at the bottom (sheer linen looks especially swoon-worthy when it does that)?

We’ve got heaps of helpful advice on measuring to help you get it right.

The choice of curtain style and colour depends on the overall aesthetic and function of the room. Consider the existing decor, desired level of privacy, and amount of natural light you want to let in. Sheer or light-coloured curtains can create an airy and open feel, while darker or lined curtains can add drama and cosiness. 

Regarding curtain styles, we offer pencil pleats and loop tops, which add a different touch to your home’s interior. 

• Pencil pleat curtains provide a classic and tailored look with neat and uniform pleats. The pleats create an elegant drape and allow easy adjustment of the curtain's fullness. 
• Loop top curtains, on the other hand, offer a more relaxed and contemporary style. The simple channel at the top of each curtain panel makes them easy to hang in a jiffy with no fiddly hooks required.

Both styles will provide warmth and texture to your space, whether you prefer the timeless sophistication of pencil pleat curtains or the casual charm of loop tops.
