Made to measure curtains are curtains which are designed and then created to meet your individual specification.

When you opt for made to measure curtains it gives you the flexibility to choose different fabric combinations, heading styles and finishing touches. Made to measure curtains will allow you to express your individual style and create a unique interior for your home.

The curtains that are produced will be exactly the way you have imagined them in terms of fabric and style. You will also have the opportunity to specify exactly what size the curtains should be.

The made to measure option is worth considering if you have a slightly higher budget in mind and if a more bespoke finish is required.

Before you buy ready-made curtains or made-to-measure curtains for your home you need to consider several things:

1. Which room will the curtains be hanging in?
2. What is the style and feel you are trying to create within the space?
3. Are there any practical implications which need to be considered?
4. What’s your budget?

For instance, your living room is usually the main reception room in the house and the curtains you choose for this room will probably be formal and dramatic – designed to make an impact.

Whereas, bedroom curtains are likely to be prettier and more feminine but at the same time need to block out early morning sunshine and curtains in the bathroom may need to be made from moisture resistant fabric.

Once you decided on the general feel you are looking for and considered the practicalities, you are ready to think about fabrics, pattern, colour and the details of the design and headings of your curtains.

There are loads of different headings to consider. Some will create a more formal feel and some will be more relaxed. Some of the most popular ones are standard pleats, box pleats, cased headings, eyelets headings, pencil pleats and tab tops.
