Curtain FAQs

How to measure curtains

Wondering how to measure for your new window dressing? While there’s certainly an art to it, the best measuring method for you depends on a few factors – the type of heading, and whether you’re using a curtain pole or a track.

If you’re fitting an eyelet style, start by measuring the width of your pole, excluding any decorative finishes on either end. Next, place your measuring tape just above the top of your curtain pole. As this is where your new curtains will start, this is where you should measure the length from. Bring the measuring tape down as far as you want your drapes to fall. Read our full guide to measuring for eyelets here.

If you’re hanging a pencil pleat heading on a curtain pole, keep in mind that you’ll need to use curtain rings to attach them. The top of your curtains will hang just below the pole as a result, so you’ll need to measure from the eye of the rings. If you’re using a curtain track instead of a pole, you should measure from the top of the track. For full instructions, read our guide to measuring for pencil pleat.

How to put up a curtain pole

Whatever type you choose, and wherever you decide to hang them, you’ll need to start out by measuring and fitting a curtain pole or track. While all of our curtains can be hung using a pole, you’ll need curtain rings if you’re going with a pencil pleat heading. Eyelet styles can’t be hung on a track, so a curtain pole is the safest option if there’s a chance you’ll change your type of heading later down the line.

Your curtain pole or track needs to be at least 30cm longer than the width of your window, giving you plenty of space to open your drapes completely without blocking any light. Centre the pole above your window, and make sure it extends at least 15cm beyond the edge of your window on either side. If they are made from a particularly thick or heavy fabric, you should allow an extension of up to 30cm on either side.

Deciding what height to hang your curtain pole at might sound like a small detail, but it can be the deciding factor in how your curtains end up looking when they're hung. Hanging your pole too low and close to the window frame will make a space feel small and restricted, while going too high and close to the ceiling will require tons of extra fabric and may end up looking a bit silly. Our recommendation is to aim for somewhere between halfway and two-thirds up your wall, between the ceiling and the top of your window frame.

How to choose curtains for the living room

A good pair of drapes for your living room is always a good investment. Not only will they help regulate the amount of light and heat that can make its way into your home, but they’re also a stunning style statement that can really bring a room’s look together.

The first thing to think about when choosing curtains for the living room is how much light you want to let through. For brighter spaces that suffer from glare (or if you love a dimly-lit movie night), go with our blackout range made with heavy fabrics like chenille or velvet. If you’ve got a north-facing living room that doesn’t get much natural light, look for brightly coloured drapes to brighten up a dimly lit space.

Thinking about style, ensure you go with a curtain heading that fits with the rest of your interior. Pencil pleat is ideal for more traditionally styled spaces, while eyelet (ring top) is sleek and contemporary. Eyelet is easier to hang and gives a wide, wavy effect when drawn shut, while pencil pleat drapes offer a neater look that fits elegantly with traditional, country-style interiors.

Which curtains are best for bedrooms?

For bedrooms, the best curtain choices are those that balance style, comfort, and practicality. Blackout curtains are ideal for creating a restful sleep environment, as they block out any unwanted light. If you prefer a softer, more relaxed look, our collection of sheer or plain curtains offers a natural drape and understated style, perfect for a calming atmosphere. By combining sheer panels with heavier drapes, it allows flexible light control throughout the day. Choose soothing, neutral tones or subtle patterns to complement your style and promote a peaceful, inviting bedroom space. 

How to style your curtains

When it comes to styling your curtains for the bedroom or living room, thinking about the design, colour palette, and header type will help them blend beautifully with your existing homeware.

If you love a minimalist look, eyelet-style curtains are a great option because they create clean, simple lines. Choosing neutral shades like beige, cream, or soft greys will help keep the space feeling modern and calm. To bring everything together, you can match your drapes with other soft furnishings, like cushions or throws in similar colours. Or, to make things even easier, simply shop our curtain collection by colour. That way, you'll find your perfect shade in no time!

If you have a maximalist home, your curtains can be a bold statement piece. Don't be shy about using bright, eclectic colours and daring patterns like vibrant blues, emerald greens, or patterned designs. This is a great way to let your personality shine and make the space feel truly yours. Fabrics like velvet or chenille can also add an extra touch of luxe.
