Blue curtains, made to measure
Every pair on this page is cut and sewn to the window it is going on — the drop measured from your pole, the width worked out from the heading you pick, and the lining chosen for what the room actually needs. Linens, cottons and velvets, hand-finished in Britain, then hung and dressed by the fitter who brought them.

Start with the heading
Four ways a curtain can hang
The heading changes how much wall the curtains stack back onto, how deep the folds sit and, quite often, the price. Pick a style to filter the ranges below.
Eyelet
Metal rings run straight onto the pole, so the fabric falls in deep, even waves and draws with one pull.
Pencil pleat
A gathered tape you can tighten to suit the window. The one heading that works on a pole or a track.
Pinch pleat
Pleats hand-formed in groups and stitched to hold. The most tailored option, and the one that stacks tightest.
Wave
A continuous S-fold on a corded track. Clean and contemporary, and it needs a proper wall run to stack back onto.

Explained
Blue curtains, explained
Blue curtains covers a broad run of made-to-measure curtain fabrics where blue is the main colour, but that can mean quite different things in practice. In this sample there are plain blue-greys, deeper velvet tones, painterly florals, geometrics and patterned designs where blue sits alongside grey, pink or charcoal. Some ranges are offered in different headings, including eyelet, pencil pleat, pinch pleat and wave, depending on the fabric. If you want blue without fixing the whole room to one exact shade, this sort of filter is useful for narrowing the field before comparing texture, pattern and heading in person.
Blue curtains tend to suit cooler, quieter interiors, from soft neutral rooms to darker schemes with navy, charcoal or painted wood. Plain weaves feel understated; velvet and larger patterns make more of a feature.
Best for
- Living rooms and bedrooms where you want a calm, cooler colour base
- Schemes that already use greys, navy, soft neutrals or muted pinks
- Plain fabrics if you want colour without adding pattern
- Patterned designs where blue needs to sit with several other tones
Worth knowing
- 'Blue' may include blue-grey, teal-leaning or multi-coloured designs rather than one flat shade
- The heading options vary by range, so your preferred top finish may narrow the choice
- Velvets, textured weaves and printed fabrics will all read differently as the light changes
How to choose
- 1
Start with the shade, not just the label
Blue covers a lot of ground, from soft grey-blue through to darker navy-led tones. Look at whether you want a cooler, quieter blue, something richer, or a design where blue is only part of the overall palette.
- 2
Decide how much pattern the room can carry
If the rest of the room is already busy, a plain or lightly textured weave is usually easier to live with. If walls and furniture are quieter, blue florals, geometrics or abstract prints can do more of the decorative work.
- 3
Match the heading to the look
Eyelet curtains feel more relaxed, pencil pleat is familiar and flexible, pinch pleat is the most tailored, and wave gives a softer continuous fold on a track. The fabric you like may not come in every heading, so it helps to set priorities.
Blue curtains: questions people ask
Are all the curtains in this filter a true blue?
Not necessarily. Some fabrics are clearly blue, while others sit closer to blue-grey, teal or a mixed pattern where blue shares space with pink, charcoal, stone or green. This filter is best treated as a starting point for blue-led options rather than one exact shade family.
Do blue curtains work in small rooms?
Yes, but the type of blue matters. Softer blue-greys and lighter woven fabrics tend to keep a room feeling calmer and more open, while darker velvets and heavier patterns make more of a statement. Holding samples against your own wall colour and flooring is usually the easiest way to judge it properly.
Which heading suits blue curtains best?
That depends more on the room and fabric than the colour itself. Eyelet gives a simpler, more relaxed look on a pole, pencil pleat works on a pole or track, pinch pleat looks more tailored, and wave gives a neater S-curve on a track. Your advisor can talk through what each available fabric is made in.
Can I have blue curtains with a blackout or thermal lining?
Many curtain ranges are offered with blackout or thermal options, but it varies by fabric and heading. If light control or warmth matters, it is worth choosing that early rather than treating it as an afterthought. Your advisor will confirm what is available for the ranges you shortlist.
Will blue curtains clash with grey walls?
Usually no. Blue and grey often sit together easily, especially in the softer blue-grey and navy end of the filter. The main thing is undertone: some blues feel cooler and cleaner, others slightly greener or smokier. Seeing the fabric in your own light helps you tell which way it leans.

Tap a number to see what each part does, and what you'll be choosing at your appointment.
1. Eyelets
Metal rings through the heading sit straight on the pole, with no hooks or gliders in between — very little to catch or snag.
Your advisor brings samples of every option to your window, so you can see and feel them before you choose.

The evenings are drawing in
Now's the time to sort the windows you've been meaning to do — blackout for the bedrooms, warmer layers for the living room. An advisor brings the samples to your windows, free.

Why our curtains service is right for you
01
Sewn to your drop, not a size chart
Shop-bought curtains come in fixed widths and drops. Ours are cut to the pole or track you actually have, so the hem lands where you want it — at the sill, below it, or just breaking on the floor.
02
Enough fabric to hang properly
A curtain that looks thin is nearly always a curtain that was not given enough width. We work to a proper fullness for the heading you choose, so the folds stay deep even when the curtains are drawn.
03
The lining does the hard work
Standard lining for body and drape, blackout for a bedroom, thermal for a cold north wall or a single-glazed bay. The lining decides how the room feels far more than the face fabric does.
04
Poles, tracks and dressing included
We measure the wall rather than just the window, fit the pole or track level, then hang and dress the curtains so the pleats set in from the first day.
Finance options available. We offer flexible ways to pay so a whole-house refresh doesn't have to land in one go. Your advisor will talk you through what's available at your appointment.

What people hang behind them
Plenty of rooms end up with a blind as well as a curtain — for blackout, for daytime privacy, or simply because a radiator or window seat rules out a full drop.

Curtains: your questions answered
Headings, linings, poles and pairing curtains with a blind on the same window.
Which curtain heading should I choose?
Eyelet curtains run straight onto a pole and fall in deep, even waves — the simplest to draw. Pencil pleat is a gathered tape that works on a pole or a track. Pinch pleat is hand-formed in groups and stitched, which is the most tailored look and stacks tightest. Wave hangs from a track in a continuous S-curve and suits large modern windows.
What difference does the lining make?
A standard lining protects the fabric and improves how it hangs. Thermal lining measurably helps a cold or draughty room. Blackout lining is what you want in a bedroom. Interlining adds weight and body for a heavier, more expensive drape.
Do you supply the poles and tracks?
Yes, and your fitter puts them up. Getting the pole height and width right is part of the job — curtains that clear the sill and stack off the glass need the pole set beyond the opening.
Can I have curtains and a blind on the same window?
Very common. A slim roller or roman inside the reveal gives you blackout and privacy, with curtains face-fitted outside it for warmth and dressing. Your advisor will check the reveal is deep enough for both to work.
Is fitting included in the price?
Yes. The quote you are given covers the product, the fitting and the guarantee. Your fitter hangs everything, checks the operation with you and takes the packaging away.
How is a quote worked out?
By the size of each opening, the product and fabric you choose, the heading or mechanism, and any motorisation. Because everything is made to your measurements there is no single list price — you get a written figure on the day, itemised per window, with the fitting and guarantee included.
What guarantee do I get?
A 1-year guarantee on every blind, shutter and motor we supply and fit. If something goes wrong inside that period, ring the office and we come back out.
