Curtains
Cream 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
Cream curtains, explained
Cream curtains cover a broad, warm neutral rather than one single shade: on this page you'll find everything from a flat oatmeal weave to an ivory jacquard with a tonal swirl, a stone-toned geometric print, and softer botanical or branch designs on a cream ground. Most ranges are shown with a blackout lining option and come in eyelet or pencil pleat heading, with pinch pleat available on some. A handful of the fabrics are shown here as one colourway among several, so the same range may also turn up under other colours if you look further afield. Because tone and texture vary so much within "cream", it's worth having a sample held against your own walls and light before deciding.
Cream suits traditional, country and softly layered schemes, and works equally well as a quiet neutral behind a bay window blind or as the main event in a plain bedroom.
Best for
- Neutral schemes that need warmth rather than stark white or grey
- Bedrooms and living rooms where a soft, calming backdrop is wanted
- Pairing with bolder cushions, art or furniture without competing
- Traditional or period interiors suited to jacquards and subtle prints
- Bay windows and doorways where curtains are the main feature
Worth knowing
- Cream covers a wide range from ivory to oatmeal to stone, so the exact shade will vary between ranges and is worth checking against a sample in your own light
- Some ranges tagged here are actually multi-colourway fabrics where cream is only one of several swatches shown, or include voile and blind options alongside the curtains
How to choose
- 1
Decide plain or patterned
Some cream curtains here are flat, understated weaves; others carry a jacquard swirl, embroidered branch or geometric print in tonal cream and stone. Pick based on how much else is happening in the room.
- 2
Check the heading
Most of these come as eyelet or pencil pleat, with pinch pleat on a few ranges. Eyelet suits a pole and a more relaxed fold; pencil pleat works on pole or track and pulls up tighter.

Think about lining
Cream fabrics are often chosen for bedrooms, so ask about blackout or thermal lining if you want the room fully dark or better insulated, alongside the standard option.
Cream curtains: questions people ask
Will cream curtains show the dirt more than darker fabrics?
Most of these are dry cleaned rather than washed at home, the same as other curtain fabrics, so day-to-day care is no different. If you're concerned about a particular room, your advisor can point out which fabrics in this range have a denser weave that hides marks better.
Can I get these cream fabrics in blackout for a bedroom?
Several ranges on this page are shown with a blackout curtain option alongside standard lining, so it's worth asking. Where a range is listed only as curtains without that option shown, your advisor will confirm what linings are available for it on the day.
Do the cream shades match across different ranges?
Not necessarily. Cream spans ivory, oatmeal, stone and off-white, and each range's exact tone depends on its weave and any pattern picked out on it. The fairest way to compare is to have two or three samples from this filter placed side by side in your own room.
Are any of these actually blinds rather than curtains?
A few ranges on this page are tagged under curtains but their sample also includes a matching Roman blind or voile blind, since some fabrics are offered across both. Your advisor can confirm which formats a particular fabric is available in.
Is cream a good choice if I want a plain, calm look rather than a pattern?
Yes, several ranges here are plain or near-plain weaves in cream and oatmeal tones with only a subtle texture, no print. If pattern isn't wanted, ask to see the flatter weaves first rather than the jacquard or embroidered options.
How it's made
How eyelet curtains work
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.
Autumn
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.
