Creative Kids Curtains at Curtains Made Simple

As you would imagine, choosing and ordering children’s curtains can be a lot of fun. That’s because little ones tend to be quite imaginative and outrageous with their curtain designs and colours. And why not? When buying children’s curtains think about whether you’d like custom made curtains or to buy the fabric and run up a pair yourself. There’s also the lining to consider since heavier curtains and those with black out lining should ensure the room will be dark enough to sleep in.

Themes for Children’s Curtains

There is a huge selection of kids curtain and Roman blinds fabric available for children. At Curtains Made Simple we offer fabrics from a range of designers both in the UK and abroad – many of whom specialise in fabric for children’s rooms. And of course you don’t have to stop at just the curtains; most of the fabrics are also suitable for beanbags, seat covers and cushions too.

Boys tend to be big fans of Spiderman and other action hero designs while fairies and cup cakes often go down well with little girls. If you have a boy and girl sharing a room then why not opt for a unisex design such as brightly coloured stripes or polka dots?

Some of our own personal favourite ranges include this dinosaur theme in light cotton from Cath Kidston’s Roomshots collection:



We’re also fond of the Pirates and Princesses collection from Prestigious Textiles in 100 per cent cotton:



And The Swedish Fabric Company’s Marimekko collection in 100 per cent cotton is also a big favourite for little ones:



When it comes to colour schemes, boys of course tend to prefer bold colours such as greens, reds and blues whereas girls go more for pinks, lilacs and yellows.

Material for Children’s Curtains

If the curtains or Roman blind is for a bedroom then we’d recommend having a heavier fabric whereas for a nursery blocking out daylight isn’t quite as essential and you can opt for a lighter more floating material or even two very sheer fabrics and layer them.

At Curtains Made Simple we provide a curtain and blinds alteration service where we can either make the curtains or blinds from the material you choose or lengthen or shorten an existing set of curtains you’re particularly fond of but have grown a bit tired of and would like ‘jazzed up’ perhaps with a new border or fashioned into a different style.

The benefits of having Roman blinds or curtains custom made or altered means they will fit your window exactly, ensuring no light seeps through inadvertently. You can also have matching tie-backs produced as well as miscellaneous textiles in the same fabric.

Why not sit down with your kids and run through our children’s fabric collections today? It also includes selections from leading UK fabric designers such as Clarke & Clarke and Andrew Martin. Let the little ones choose and that way you’ll all be happy with your new ready made curtains or blinds.
