Where do you get curtains round here?

[quichel]

We need to have curtains made for virtually every window in the house we've moved into. Was going to get them done at Carol Henri but the sad news is he's sold up.

Where do people go for curtains now? All suggestions, local or otherwise, welcomed with open arms - it's getting pretty chilly and we've procrastinated long enough!

John Lewis?

If you put curtains in the search box upper right hand corner you will find threads where other people have recommended local curtain makers.

I think Dunelm Mills is great, their ready mades are really good value (often cheaper to buy and alter than buy material on its own) and they have a very wide selection of fabrics for made to measure. We go to the Dartford branch. It's loads cheaper than JL too.

thanks! has anyone tried the people in Penge - featured in Living South in a recent edition?

Kim Haddon at Village Blinds is excellent, she's done all of our window dressings and they look brilliant.

Try Natural Curtain Company and have a wide variety (style and price) of fabrics. They do made to measure as well as off the peg and if you want to, you can source your own fabric. They did our lounge curtains recently and were fantastic.

I can thoroughly recommend Lori Etienne (bobbly is her forum name) who made some fantastic curtains and a blind for us recently. They look great and the quality is fab, and reasonable rates.

Her number is 07817 097 650

I went to designer drapes in Oenge, great selection and way cheaper than JL.x
