What to expect from a bespoke curtains and blinds consultation

A bespoke curtains and blinds consultation doesn’t mean you need to have a fully formed design in mind. Instead, it’s an opportunity to explore ideas, get expert advice and find a solution that suits your home, personal style and practical requirements.

At Curtain Studio, our home consultations offer tailored advice on everything from measurements and design to fabric selection, helping you make a choice that’s right for your space.

Visiting your home

Your consultation will begin with one of our experts visiting your home. Seeing your space in person allows us to offer advice that’s specific to your windows, your room and the way you use it.

We’ll talk through ideas, preferences and practical requirements, considering everything, from the amount of natural light the room gets and how much you want to let in, to the level of privacy and insulation you need. We can also discuss any considerations around children and pets, helping you choose options that work for everyday life whilst still looking beautiful.

Exploring fabrics, colours and styles

One of our favourite parts of any consultation is exploring the different fabrics, colours and styles we have available.

You’ll be able to browse fabric samples and compare the tones and patterns to your existing décor. Seeing the fabrics in your home’s natural and artificial lighting can make a real difference as it gives you a much clearer idea of how they’ll look alongside your current furniture.

We can also talk through the extra details of your made to measure curtains and blinds, including curtain headings, linings, trims, blind styles and finishes so that every element is perfectly suited to your space.

Expert advice tailored to your windows

Every window is different and sometimes the most suitable solution isn’t necessarily the one you first had in mind.

During your consultation, we’ll look at the shape, size and position of your windows, as well as the surrounding space. Awkward windows, bay windows, unusually large windows and room with limited space can all present different challenges. However, they can also create opportunities for a beautifully tailored solution.

Our experts can recommend options you may not have considered, helping you make the most of your windows while also balancing style with practicality.

Measuring for the perfect fit

Taking accurate measurements is an essential part of creating made to measure curtains and blinds. This is why we offer an expert fitting service, ensuring your window coverings are installed with precision.

Rather than worrying about measuring your windows yourself, our team will take care of this for you, considering both the window itself and where the tracks, poles or blinds will sit. This helps to ensure that your finished window coverings are made to the correct dimensions and are designed to work beautifully within the space.

Choosing the finishing touches

Once you’ve chosen the style and fabric of your bespoke blinds or curtains, we can help you consider the details that will complete the look.

This may include choosing the right poles or tracks, adding tiebacks or exploring motorisation options for extra convenience. These finishing touches can make a significant difference to the appearance and functionality of your window coverings.

What happens after the consultation?

Once your choices have been made and your measurements taken, we’ll take care of the next steps.

Your bespoke curtains or blinds will be made in our workroom, combining expert craftsmanship with hand-sewn detailing to create a beautiful, long-lasting finish.

Once your window coverings have been created, we will arrange an installation at a convenient time. Our fitters will then complete the final fitting, ensuring your window coverings look and work as they should.
