Made to Measure Nursery Curtains

Made to Measure Curtains

Which of your fabrics are suitable for curtains in nurseries?

Nursery curtains work well in baby's bedrooms. Choose your fabric and measure your windows to get bespoke luxury curtains for your nursery space.  

Bearing in mind that a baby’s colour vision is in place by 4 months, fabric choices are important. 

Vanessa says, "I can still remember the curtains in my bedroom when I was a little girl. Even very small children are so observant and have to time to gaze and day dream so it is important to give them pictorial fabrics to feed their wonderful, creative imaginations. Children lie awake in bed more than we do and are eager to look around and absorb their surroundings."

Her eldest daughter Rose drew all the animals in the Wild and Free design, and took inspiration found on cave drawings and Etruscan cases, drawn during many visits to the British Museum. If that won’t feed the imagination of little ones I’m not sure what will! Also, my younger daughter Flora created the fun design, Bird Hop. Both designs are available in a range of stunning colours from Saffron yellow to Tomato red.

There is a lot to look at in the scenic design of "By the Sea," which has houses, sailing boats, lighthouses, and people strolling with their dogs; my husband drew these images after a weekend visit to Mousehole in Cornwall.

If you make curtains for your nurseries with these designs they will grow with the children, they are not exclusively for ‘little people’ and you won’t have to change the curtains as they grow up...children’s become very attached to the familiar.

These designs are printed on beautiful linen and come in lots if gorgeous colours and for me fit the bill.

Children's bedrooms and playrooms can look really wonderful with full length curtains, they can brighten up and transform any children’s bedroom, playroom or nursery.

You can choose from different headings, although I prefer a cottage pleat header for children’s playrooms and bedrooms, being soft and pretty. It is also worth mentioning lining here. Interlining helps insulate and keep the room warm, and blackout lining can be added to discourage early morning waking.

My Pretty Maids and Stockholm Stripe all coordinate beautifully with them and work well as coordinates for a chair, cushion or bed head.

Blackout curtains can be useful for young children to help them to sleep longer in early morning.
