Made to Measure Yellow Curtains

Made to Measure Curtains

Can you make Made to Measure yellow curtains for me?

Yellow curtains can brighten any room and help you think of flowers, lemons, and sunshine. Yellow fabrics for curtains can offer a fres finish especially in our many variations on yellow shades and patterns. 

What could be more inviting than a brightly coloured curtain fabric and a scattering of yellow cushion covers to welcome you home? The colour of eternal summer, we can’t think of any shade we would rather come home to on a bleak winter’s day – or better, a warm spring evening.

Saffron, this beautiful strong shade of gold yellow fabric is fresh enough and strong enough to make beautiful yellow curtains and sit happily with darker shades of grey, such as winter, Charcoal and Scree. It works particularly well for living room curtains.

The following designs encompass these yellow and soft grey colours: Gypsy Garland, Origami, Shibori, Stockholm Stripe and Pretty Maids.

Our softer Buttercup yellow, is the perfect partner for the gentler blue-grey Clay with added accents of Charcoal, this combination of yellow and grey striped fabric is very pretty for kitchen, bathroom and bedroom curtains, exemplified in the designs Song Birds, Fruit Garden and French Ticking.

Hay is the softest yellow, beautiful for elegant sitting rooms or bedroom curtains. See Fern and Dragonfly, Down to Earth, and Paisley Ground, with coordinating Lapland Stripe.

Sand yellow reflects the colour of golden beaches and can be more sophisticated in a sitting room or dining room, adding warmth without the brightness through sandy yellow upholstery and curtains. 

With Straw, we have moved towards a mustard yellow as seen in Fruit Garden design. The mustard and grey upholstery fabrics add that warmth and light to a room.

Which of your patterns and fabric colours go well with yellow?

Vanessa has teamed Straw and Sand yellows, with Pigeon grey, and Powder Blue and Cornflower blues, to counterbalance the warmth of the yellow with the cool of the blues. So, plenty of colours to build the scheme around in your sitting rooms and halls. The counter-balance between the warmth and cheerfulness of the yellow and the cool greys and blues is perfect. A grey and yellow interior creates happiness and warmth, and is spectacular in the evening when the sun is going down and the fire is lit.
