Curtains & Blinds

Q: How do you measure a space for curtains?

To measure a space for curtains, you need to use a tape measure or similar measuring device to calculate the length of the area that you want to have the curtains cover. Make sure to go slightly over the actual number to ensure that the curtains properly cover the space. Then you should repeat for the height of the space, ensuring to go slightly over the actual value again to give the curtains some space. If you feel your measurements may be inaccurate, contact an expert to help you with this.

Q: How long do curtains last?

Most high quality curtains should last over 10 years though some change them more frequently as their aesthetic tastes change. Over time, curtains can get worn down from consistent exposure to the sun, especially in Australia which causes them to wear down.

Q: How long do blinds last?

Blinds, compared to curtains, can last even longer, well over 10 years if properly cared for. They tend to be made of materials with greater durability, as they are slightly more functional than decorative.

The advantages of high-quality blinds

Having high-quality blinds and curtains means that you can prevent as much sunlight as you want when you want. It helps you get the right ambience and set the right mood at different times of the day. Blinds and curtains are age-old tools for maintaining privacy and keeping your home insulated and warm. High quality options are able to achieve all these things while looking great too.

How to choose curtains and blinds that are right for you

Curtains and blinds come in a variety of fabrics and materials, each offering unique features and benefits. Understanding the different options available can help you choose the perfect window treatment for your space. Here are some common fabrics and materials used in curtains and blinds:

Cotton: Cotton is a versatile and natural fabric that is lightweight, breathable, and provides a casual and relaxed look.
Linen: Linen curtains and blinds have a timeless appeal with their slightly textured appearance. They offer a classic and elegant look, and their natural fibers make them durable and suitable for various climates.
Polyester: Polyester is a synthetic fabric known for its affordability and durability. It resists wrinkles, fading, and shrinking, making it a practical choice for curtains and blinds.
Silk: Silk curtains and blinds exude luxury and sophistication. The smooth and lustrous texture of silk adds an elegant touch to any room.
Velvet: Velvet curtains and blinds create a sense of richness and opulence. This plush fabric offers excellent light-blocking properties and provides insulation against heat and cold.
Wood: Wood blinds are renowned for their natural beauty and timeless appeal. They come in various finishes and slat sizes, allowing for precise control over light and privacy.
Aluminum: Aluminum blinds are lightweight, durable, and easy to clean. They provide excellent light control and come in a wide range of colors and finishes.
Vinyl: Vinyl blinds are a cost-effective and practical choice, especially for high-humidity areas like bathrooms and kitchens.

When deciding between curtains and blinds, it is essential to take into account factors such as light control, privacy, maintenance needs, and the desired aesthetic for your space. By carefully selecting the appropriate fabric or material, you have the opportunity to elevate both the functionality and style of your windows, creating an enhanced ambiance in your room.

Do blinds and curtains go together?

Yes. Though blinds and curtains both work well individually and fulfil the same function, you can also pair them together to provide different levels of privacy and warmth to a room depending on your needs. Having both curtains and blinds gives you the flexibility to close only one or the other, or close both for an added layer of warmth against the cold at night.
