How to dress large modern windows using Roman Blinds?

Sometimes these can be somewhat overwhelming due to the size of space to potentially cover or dress, but actually these are the best space to work with. You can really add impact through design and colour that will not only look beautiful, but incorporate designs within the space that really complement the rest of the room.

Some of the fabrics that would best suit this scheme would be our following fabrics: Shibori, Origami, Lattice Leaf,  Up the Garden Path, French Ticking, Stockholm Stripe, and many many more.

A well-dressed window can be achieved by choosing a larger pattern, such as stripes, which will serve as the foundation for layering your soft furnishings. For instance, to make a lovely and cosy dressed window, choose Roman Blinds for your window and draw curtains over them.  Why not choose a leading edge that matches the colour or pattern of your blinds' border? This would help in tying things together and make them appear intentional.  Once you've decided on your colour selections, you can then incorporate the border colours/designs into other soft furnishings in the space to maintain consistency. For example, you could add contrast piping to a scatter cushion or use the same design on a lampshade, the options are endless!

HOW TO MEASURE UP FOR YOUR ROMAN BLINDS

INSIDE A WINDOW RECESS

 Width: Measure across the recess at several points and give the narrowest measurement minus 1cm for clearance so the blind will run freely (see E on the diagram)

 Length: Measure from the top of the recess to the bottom (see E on the diagram)

OUTSIDE A WINDOW RECESS

Width: Measure the width of the recess and add at least 5cms on each side for overlapping (see F on the diagram)

Length: Measure from the required starting position above the window to the length you require, adding 5cms on the length
