Handmade Curtains from Couture Living

We live in a world which is fast-paced and we live in a throw-away world. A world where clothing can be bought cheaply and for relatively little cost, a world where your whole home can be furnished at a fraction of the price of twenty years ago.  This is not always a good thing.

Often when something is manufactured cheaply the quality isn't there and the product doesn't last as long. I don't know how many times I have bought something in the past and the stitching has come undone, the buttons come off in no time or holes appear quickly.  So I've made a decision to buy more quality products, that may cost more but will last longer. Many of us are doing this too, going back to old school values and buying sustainably, buying quality, and buying British. 

I love supporting British businesses and business that are unique and different, businesses that handmake their products and really put their heart and soul into them, businesses like Couture Living. This is an advertorial in collaboration with Couture Living.



Couture Living is a company selling quality bespoke hand-made curtains and blinds made in Britain.  The company employs well-trained craftspeople that have years of experience producing blinds and curtains for properties from London apartments to beachside villas and five-star hotels around the world. Every hand-stitched blind or curtain is inspected for quality checks to ensure no customer is ever disappointed in the items they produce.  

Here are some very different designs from Couture Living that I think will appeal to most people. 



My favourite designs from Coutre Living are the floral patterns that remind me of an English country garden. Of course, when you choose floral curtains, the striking pattern can influence the whole room. I would suggest picking out a couple of the colours used in the pattern and using that for a colour palette. The design above from the Kew Park collection is a modern floral look I love in grey, pink and purple tones.


If you are wary of colour, then choose a neutral colour palette, in white and grey. The floral curtains in this design above are from the Kelso collection and are much more understated, cool, calm and collected. Add a soft grey throw and velour cushions to add warmth to a cosy bedroom. A fresh clean, modern look that everyone will love.



A totally different look and one I am completely in love with is the tropical pattern which is so on-trend at the moment. Bright, vibrant and fun these tropical print curtains called Floreale from the Fauvisimo collection will add a pop of colour to any room and will have you dreaming of tropical climes in no time. Accessorise the room with leafy plants and mementoes from your Caribbean holidays



The last design I have chosen goes back to traditional florals and is the Michelham design from the Ashdown collection by Nina Campbell. This really is the epitome of English country florals and works well when you are trying to get a traditional floral or boho-chic look. The red, brown and pale eggshell blue is just gorgeous. Team it with pale pastel walls or a floral print in white and the same colour of blue for a grown-up feminine look.

Couture Living provides a made to measure and fit service, where you arrange an appointment for someone to come to your home. They also offer a measuring guide to help you measure correctly if you want to do it all yourself.

Couture Living are also on Instagram,  Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, so it's worth checking out their social pages for the most up-to-date information and for photos of their most recent designs.

Let me know, what do you think of the designs from Couture Living?

  8. Loving the different colours and patterns you have highlighted, curtains can often be overlooked when decorating a room but can really make a big difference to the look and feel
