Curtains add the finishing touch to any room. They not only have a decorative role to play in interior design, but they’re functional too – keeping out drafts, filtering light, keeping the room warm and preventing dust from creeping in.
Choosing the right curtains is therefore important. They shouldn’t just look good, but fit properly too.
The way to find curtains that are just perfect for your purpose is to have them made to measure. If you live in or near Warminster in Wiltshire, Lindsays Linens are your local curtain connoisseurs who stock a vast range of fabrics to choose from and make beautifully finished bespoke curtains to fit any window.
We realise that if you’re considering investing in made to measure curtains you’ll have plenty of questions. You’re welcome to contact us or pop in to our store in Warminster to get all the answers you need, but we thought we’d share some of the most frequently asked questions – and our answers – here, to reassure you and save you time:

We certainly can. One of our experienced curtain consultants can advise you on which fabric types, colours, curtain headers, poles and tracks would be best for a particular window, the look and feel you want to create, and your available budget. Ultimately the choice is down to your personal taste, but we can help you narrow down your options.
The most popular types of curtain headings are:
If the fabric you choose comes in bolts narrower than the width required for your curtains we will have to make a join – a vertical seam. Our curtain crafters will match the weave and pattern of the fabric exactly so as to minimise the visible join.
