Designs and Styles

 Curtain Heading Options

Your choice of heading determines how neatly your curtains "stack" when opened and will heavily influence their look, drape, and functionality, and will set the design tone for the room.

Double or Triple Pleats

Elegant, structured, and timeless. This heading is best suited to heavy or interlined fabrics and can be hung on both decorative curtain poles and tracks. 

These triple pinch pleats pleats are permanently sewn into the header at regular intervals using hidden hand-stitches. The triple pleats finished with a machined-on header show a more relaxed slightly gathered look. 

Traditional Pencil Pleat

Classic, neat and flexible. A machine finished pulled tape header creates a heading resembling a neat row of pencils. The fullness can be slightly adjusted to fit the required space precisely, and are often chosen for traditional spaces, cottages, or curtains hidden behind a valance or pelmet. They can also be made with a hand finish for a more formal structured look. 

They work well in most settings, and are compatible with standard poles, curtain tracks, and curtain rings. 

Modern Eyelets

Clean, crisp, and modern. Metal rings are precisely punched directly into the top band of the fabric, creating large, soft folds. This heading is popular for more casual spaces, and looks good with geometric or patterned fabrics. They slide directly onto a curtain pole only; they cannot be used with a track.

Relaxed and Casual Curtain Styles

If you are looking for an informal, breezy, or country-cottage aesthetic, the following headings offer a softer and more relaxed silhouette. They work beautifully with lightweight linens, sheers, and voiles.  

  • Produce a charming and rustic vibe. Fabric ribbons are sewn onto the top of the curtain and hand-tied onto the pole in delicate knots or bows. Are best suited to cottages, bedrooms, nurseries, or lightweight linen sheers where you want a soft, drapey finish. 

  • Casual, decorative dress curtains, where fabric loops are sewn directly onto the top edges, with the curtain hanging completely exposed below the pole. They are designed to stay mostly stationary, as the fabric does not slide as smoothly across a pole for everyday opening and closing.  

  • A clever alternative to traditional tab tops. The fabric loops are hidden away on the back of the curtain header. The pole passes through these hidden slots, giving you a clean, seamless look at the front with soft, fluid folds. This style is best for modern rustic spaces and lightweight fabrics where you want a clean line across the top without visible rings or hooks. 

Roman Blind Finishes

Our Roman blinds are meticulously hand-finished so that no machine stitching or needle holes pierce through the face of your main fabric. Contrasting panels or trimmings can be added to either the sides or the bottom edges of the blind to add extra interest. 

  • The fabric folds stack slightly staggered, creating a lovely, layered waterfall look when raised.

  • The folds pull up directly on top of each other to sit neatly level, maximizing the window view when the blind is completely open. 

Cushion Finishes and Trims

Bespoke cushions can be elevated with your choice of premium trimmings. 

  • A cord covered in your main fabric trims the edge of the cushion, creating a classic, clean finish.

  • Piping cord covered in a completely different, contrasting or coordinating colour or fabric to draw the eye.

  • A flat fabric border frame around the edge of the cushion, creating a relaxed but tailored vibe.

  • Perfect for adding a tactile, eye-catching, or luxury element to scatter cushions.
