A complete service
Somewhere between curtain maker and interior designer.
We're curtain makers near Chelmsford who think like designers. Some clients come to us for a single blind. Others want help with a whole house. Either way, we take the project from the first ideas to the final dressing, so the curtains, blinds, cushions and upholstery all belong to the same room.
If you can't quite picture the finished space, our interior design service starts with your own ideas and builds from there. And if you'd like to know who you'll be working with, read our herstory.

Sisters Sharen and Suzanne began by making curtains for friends and family. Since 2000 that has grown into a workroom that makes for homes and hotels, and the two of them still run it together, with Jayne and our in-house team.
