How it's made
How a roller blind works
Tap a number to see what each part does, and what you'll be choosing at your appointment.
1. Roller and brackets
The fabric winds onto a tube held by two small brackets, inside the recess or on the wall above it. Which one suits your window is settled when it's measured.
Your advisor brings samples of every option to your window, so you can see and feel them before you choose.
Why this range
What Shimmerlet does well
01
Built as blackout blinds
Cut and finished as blackout blinds for your exact window, rather than trimmed down from a stock size. The mechanism is sized to the drop, so it hangs straight and stays that way.
02
2 colourways to compare
Colour behaves differently in north light, in the evening and against your walls. Pick the ones you like here and your advisor brings those exact swatches to the visit.
03
Measured and fitted by us
One team measures, makes and installs. If something isn't right, there's nobody to pass you on to — we come back and sort it.
Style notes
What Shimmerlet is like, and where it works
Shimmerlet is a star-print roller blind in grey, shown here as a blackout roller blind in a child's bedroom and repeated across a run of garden doors. The scattered star motif reads as playful without being overly bright, so it settles into both bedrooms and living spaces.
A soft grey ground scattered with a star print in a deeper charcoal tone, with a plain matt finish and no visible sheen despite the range name.

Ideas for your home
Made-to-measure blackout roller blind for a children's bedroom
A room with pale grey walls, painted floorboards and a play tent, where a darker window helps with settling children at bedtime.
The star pattern picks up on a bedtime theme while the blackout lining helps keep the room dark.
Made-to-measure roller blinds for a garden room or conservatory
A row of glazed doors and windows in a bright garden room furnished with bold-coloured sofas and a patterned rug.
Fitting several blinds from the same range across a run of doors keeps the look consistent across multiple panes of glass.
Made-to-measure roller blind for a nursery
A softly lit room with light-coloured furniture, where a gentle star print suits a young child without feeling too bold.
The grey star design is gentle enough for a nursery while still bringing in a playful detail.
- Comes in two colourways: Stars Blackout Grey and Stars Grey.
- The Stars Blackout Grey option is listed as a blackout blind, suited to rooms where you want to block out light.
- An advisor measures your windows and fits the blinds as part of the service.
