Help with track options!

9 months ago

What other track could we put up here? So because of the curve ceiling, can't put a pole across for ring curtains. Tried a track but maybe just need different curtain thickness. Maybe a wire instead. Or fix the curtain and use a tie back instead? Shutters not really an option.

Fix curtain & tie back

Wire track

Lighter curtains

Blinds instead

Hi Phaker,

It looks like a really lovely window/doors you have here - the shape is amazing. Is there an option to not dress this window at all? If you do need window treatments for privacy or to block light, we would go for perfect fit blinds. This will mean the window will still be a lovely feature and also work practically.

If you would like more personalised advice for this room or any other space in your home we would love to help. You can see more about us and how we work here. - Becky

Hi there, Are your windows uPVC? If so, PerfectFit blinds would be ideal. They clip into the beading and become an integral part of the window itself so you don't need to mount to the lintel or wall. And you could also have these in a blackout fabric. Alternatively, you may be able to have something like Pleated blinds on tension rods even if your window is wooden - and these are also available with the blackout fabric you need for the bedrooms. The picture shows an example of how the PerfectFit Roller blinds fit into these windows. Hope that helps, Zoe

@Carolina interestingly - yes - we did consider the Calia and similar tables at other companies. We liked it a lot. At one point I was also thinking along these style lines for a breakfast bar, and /or the children's desks. But we chickened out on the table (and the other things too). We weren't sure we could make it work (e.g. we thought it pushed us in to very different chairs) and we were also worried that it wasn't sufficiently timeless for our needs (i.e. we would tire of it before we could afford another big outlay for an extending table). I thought we might be more successful choosing things like pared back industrial or Skandi, or more distressed/vintage in lamps, and side tables. I'm still hoping that will be the case. But each time I make a decision, I seem to choose 'safe' and in favour of the colours; rather than style. Truth be told, I like lots of styles so I'm worried that I'll end up with 'awful eclectic'. Choosing colours and safe seems a bit easier. But I have a feeling it might be going to end up 'co-ordinated bland'. Only the children seem to be able to inject a bit of shazam (the coloured chairs in the Eames/eiffel style around their desk were their idea). But if I give them too much free rein, they'll turn the room into Smiggle. What I would really like to achieve is a green & grey palette with accents of teal/jade/ and a few pops of sky blue/mint green/ chartreuse). I'd like it to feel layered but not cluttered. I'd like the expensive purchases and the base/background to be timeless and like updated classics (e.g. G plan sofas; shaker kitchen in modern colours). And then I'd like to play with some of the current style trends in the accents and layers. It feels like I am still copping out and playing safe - but maybe I'm still sorting out the basics which I would like to be safe and timeless. I'm not feeling confident; it's the fatigue of so many decisions and the usual unexpected issues cropping up during the building process. Thanks so much for your suggestion and encouragement to aim for something a little different, at least somehow. @comegetme Thanks very much for your clear advice and encouragement too.

The best way to get a colour match would be to use the same RAL colour. However, if you don't know what RAL colour your existing windows are, we can send you out a colour sample of our light silver metallic and dark silver metallic shades and you can see if they match. Let me know if this is something you'd be interested in and I can get some samples sent out to you. Thanks, Robyn
