Curtain style ideas

Make your windows a stunning focal point

Roll-up blinds are a fuss-free way to dress a bay. Go for a bold pattern that can be seen in all its detail and choose a complementary plain fabric for the back of the blinds so your window looks good from outside, too.

Combine with an attractive pole around the bay and narrow dress curtains at either side. These provide a soft framing effect for the window, but can't be drawn closed.

Snap-together rivets attach the curtain fabric to the pole for a neat, modern finish that doesn't require heading tape.

Stylist's tips
Choose the same fabric for the dress curtains and the back of the blinds, as this will be on show when you roll them up during the day.

Choose simple curtains that complement the blinds.
