curtains or blinds??

Helen Atkinson
5 anni fa
How do you decide whether to use curtains or blinds? I am really struggling how to choose curtains or blinds and once I've decided that, how do I choose the colour? I don't like heavily patterned material and I think I want something quite light.
I've had a couple of bits of fabric but they're so small I can't guage if they'll work.
Has anyone got any tips?!

The photos are of the living room and I need curtains or blinds for both ends of the room.

    The shorter window would look better with Roman blinds as there is a radiator below, and curtains would be nice on the patio doors. Your room is lovely!

      A nice outside the window roman blind on the window, maybe 2 lighter colours e.g. white & of white stripe or creams or greys light then a lighter colour in that family of colours. I would pair that with curtains for the double doors in 1 of the colours. Just some thought xx good luck

      Are any of your fabric swatches the same colour as your walls? Given that you've got a lovely colour scheme already and you want something light I would keep fabric choice as close to the wall colour as possible. I was also thinking Roman blind for the front and pencil pleat curtains for the sliding doors.

      Your room is lovely and pretty neutral apart from the accent colour, pink. In the future, that accent colour could change to virtually anything so I would always opt for quiet, neutral curtains and blinds. I have only ever had linen, or softer fabric that looks like linen but hangs well.

      Paint the window frames to match the wall: they’re too intrusive. Roman shades in a light neutral would look good.

      As you want to keep the room nice and light I would try to pick a fabric a couple of shades lighter than your walls. If you don't like a lot of pattern that perhaps keep it plain or maybe a stripe to break up the space on the walls. I would go for a roman blind on the small window to avoid it looking overcrowded and long curtains for the patio doors.

      Hi Helen, feel free to order fabric samples from us. Our samples are a decent size so you can get a good feel of how they will look. With windows like yours, you may wish to go for sunscreen roller blinds which provide shade but without blocking all the light and view. With your decor, you might like to go for a neutral beige or grey.
