So this week was the turn of this beautiful window seat cushion.

My client wanted to be able to sit in the window and read. The initial brief was 2 cushions to get around the awkward supporting bar. Luckily at A Little Bit Fancy box cushions are my most favourite thing, and a challenging shape just adds to the joy.

This cushion has it all, a dog leg edge, a mid section concealed zip and a channel to fit around the bar.
It looks amazing, my client is happy and I am thrilled with the results…..

A beautifully made cushion has created the perfect cosy corner to watch the world go by.

Is there anything better than a ceiling fix silent gliss track? Yes, 2 silent gliss tracks….they are sleek, discrete and strong.

My client had a very definite idea of the look and feel that she wanted in her living space, neutral colours but a cosy feel….

This voile and curtain combination absolutely meet the brief, I chose a reverse pleat heading on the voiles to stop them dragging on the backs of the curtains, and a double pinch pleat on the main curtains, with a slight pool to the length to soften the look whilst giving the appearance of a much taller room.

I am thrilled with the result, my client is too, and that for me is another job well done 👍🏼

Tracks and poles are available from A Little Bit Fancy, with prices to suit all budgets. We also offer a fitting service for all of our products and projects.

Parker Knoll is the gift that keeps on giving, so many different designs and each one as beautiful as the last…. But this one is an absolute gem, and my client chose A Little Bit Fancy!!!! Yes me, to breath life into her once more.
Rubbed down and waxed by Andy , new springs, webbing and fire retardant foam and she was ready to show off in this cheerful fabric by Mind The Gap.
Thank you for entrusting us with her….a total showstopper once more.

What can I say, this project was an absolute dream,

cottage top, interlined curtains with contrasting top edge!

Interlined roman blinds with contrasting bottom edge!

Stunning linen rope holdbacks!

Beautiful 50mm poles!

And to finish the look 2 bespoke lampshades made from the leftover fabric.

The fabric is also from the wonderful Meg Morton which is a lovely to work with and a total showstopper.

My client had purchased 2 sets of marks and Spencer’s Bouclè curtains…..

”can you use them to make me a set of curtains for the kitchen Sarah?”
Answer: “Yes I Can!….i can also use the leftover to make 2 blinds, a box cushions with matching scatter cushions and a cottage top curtain for the awkward door in the bedroom”!!!

This job has it all, striped blackout lining that looks so cute from outside, a lovely Cameron fuller portiere rod with a very cute cottage top curtain and to complete the look a lovely silent gliss wave track in black.

The fabric creates a cosy space in this beautifully converted barn, giving you the opportunity to shut out the world, safe in the knowledge that your home looks as lovely from the outside as it does on the inside.

So today I had the absolute pleasure of delivering this much loved chair to my client.

She has a theme running through her home using fabrics from a lovely store. She really loves their furniture but just couldn’t bring herself to throw away a perfectly sound and comfortable chair. So, I recovered it in fabric recommended by the lovely ladies at Susie Watson, in a style that suited.

She is absolutely overjoyed and I couldn’t be happier.

This particular project is the reason that A Little Bit Fancy came about…..taking something tired and injecting a new lease of life, saving pennies whilst reducing landfill.

Another lovely job completed to an extremely high standard, simply stunning. Also delivered are 4 rejuvenated dining chairs.

Simply perfect, and A Little Bit Fancy 🧡

So, friday is usually our fitting day, it can be nerve wracking, the moment when you know that the drops you took are right, the track fits perfectly and everything goes like clock work…..and this Friday was no exception.
A beautiful set of full length pinch pleat curtains and a cute little Roman blind.
The curtains are ceiling mounted on a gorgeous Silent Gliss track.
I have never worked with fabric from The Pure Edit but it was lovely, such great quality and lovely designs.

My client is overjoyed, Andy has flexed his expert fitting abilities and I am beyond proud with the results.

The beauty of A Little Bit Fancy is that the entire project is seen through from start to finish by me. From the measuring up, advising and supplying tracks and poles and all of the making. Andy (my partner) fits all of my work which is done to the highest standard, which makes a difference to the result, believe me poorly fitted or unsuitable poles or tracks can ruin the results.

We celebrated with a cake and a coffee from The Curator in the stunning hope cove, and relax 🧘‍♀️ ☺️
