✨ “I know I want to change it… I just don’t know what to do with it.” ✨
This is something I hear all the time.
My client knew the old curtains weren’t working for her anymore, but she wasn’t sure what should replace them. Should she have new curtains? A blind? Shutters? Leave it as it is?
That’s exactly where a Soft Furnishings Consultation can help.
During our consultation, I looked at:
✔ The size and proportions of the window
✔ The position of the window within the room
✔ Privacy requirements
✔ How much natural light needed to be controlled
✔ Most importantly, how she wanted the room to feel
Rather than simply choosing a fabric, we looked at the bigger picture.
Because the window wasn’t particularly tall and the room felt a little flat, I recommended fitting a Roman blind with a bespoke pelmet positioned just below the coving. This simple design trick draws the eye upwards, making the window appear taller and creating a much more elegant, considered look.
The result is a window treatment that feels as though it was designed specifically for the room rather than simply fitted to the window.
The beautiful fabric brings personality and interest to the space, while the pelmet adds structure and gives the room a more luxurious finish.
Watch until the end to see the final photo of the before image and the transformation for yourself.
If you’re looking at a room and thinking “I know it needs something, but I don’t know what” – that’s completely normal. Often the challenge isn’t choosing a blind or curtain; it’s knowing which solution will work best for your room, your lifestyle and the feeling you want to create.
Sometimes a fresh pair of eyes can make all the difference.
