Curtains & Valances |
|
|
|
|
|
Curtains are the traditional way of dressing windows. In order to achieve the desired look, initial decisions on fabric, type of heading and fitting should be taken to suit different window styles and room décor.
Straight or Shaped Valances can be added to enhance a window’s visual proportions and hide curtail tracks. (Valance Rail required)
Curtains and Valances are pattern matched and are fully lined as standard with cotton sateen or blackout lining.
Cushion Covers also available, please use the enquiry form to request a quotation.

Eyelet & Tab Top Curtains
|
|
  
|

|
Poles only.
|
|
Fullness:
|
2 times fullness
(fullness can be reduced for dress curtains).
|
|
Fabric:
|
Most fabrics can be used.
|
|
Description:
|
Eyelet: Modern contemporary heading created by punching an even number of metal eyelet’s into a stiffened curtain top. Eyelet curtains are particularly effective when incorporating a top or bottom horizontal panel. 40mm eyelet’s are available in a variety of colours to match your metal pole.
Tab Top: Informal heading created by sewing loops of matching or contrasting fabric to the top of each curtain. Tab top curtains are not particularly easy to draw if the pole is out of reach. The width and length of tabs needs to be calculated to ensure the loops are big enough for the pole to slot through, and the width to ensure curtains open without stacking the loops on top of one another.
