OUR CURTAIN TYPES
Goblet Pleat Curtains
If you are looking for very formal curtaining to suit a grand room in a traditional home with very high ceilings, the goblet pleat curtain is perfect. The pleat at the top resembles a wine glass. To keep the goblet pleat looking full and rounded, they should be shaped with interlining or wadding.
Pinch Pleated Curtains
Pinch Pleating gives curtains a decorative finish at the top, and although it gives quite a more formal finish than rod pocket or standard gathering, pinch pleating will work with most fabric types. There are five types of pinch pleating – the one shown here is called a three finger pinch pleat. There are also two finger pinch pleats, three finger pinch pleats, four finger pinch pleats and five finger pinch pleats. With more pleats, the size and fullness of the pleat increases, and so does the amount of fabric needed to make the curtains increases, and the cost.
Eyelet Curtains
Eyelet curtains, or Grommet curtains are ideal for light to medium weight fabrics and include silver rings at the header that a rod weaves through. The curtains hang easily and freely making this style ideal for kids bedrooms as they are easy to open, close and maintain. When made with a more formal fabric eyelet curtains are a great option for a modern bedroom or lounge room as their no fuss design is very contemporary.
Tailored Pleat Curtains
Tailored pleat drapes are similar to a Pinch Pleat, but the pleat starts at the top of the fabric and falls from there. Some people also call this a Euro pleat. For some people the tailored pleat, is a less fussy more stylish pleat, but it is personal opinion. Tailored Pleat Curtains work best when made with a substantial fabric, lighter weight fabrics definitely will need lining to look good if being made into curtains with a tailored pleat.
Box Pleated Curtains
Box pleated curtains give a very tailored look and drape into deep folds down the full length of the curtains. The box shapes line up next to each other which creates that formal, pleated look. They are ideal for more formal rooms like the lounge, dining or study.
Sheer Curtains
Sheer curtains bring a lightness to any window as their sheer fabric allows a little privacy while still filtering in light. Sheer curtains are often hung as secondary curtains or over blinds. This means the primary curtain or blind can be used to block out light and then pulled back to reveal the sheers which allow light in while still minimalising visibility into the room. Sheers often have a tab top design but can be custom made into other curtain styles, keeping in mind the delicateness and light weight properties of sheer fabric. Suitable for almost every room, sheers can be made more formal when the curtain top is encased in a pelmet, concealing the curtain rod and wall joiner.
WAVE CURTAINS
A wave curtain header blends easy styling with practical benefits for a laid-back look that’s tailor-made for modern living. Perfect for creating a relaxed and informal feel within the home having no gathering, bunching or pleats across the top, just a sinuous curve, falling in fluid folds directly below the track or pole.
PENCIL PLEAT CURTAINS
Pencil pleat is the traditional standard heading for curtains and valances. A 7.5 cm (3") tape is used with three hook positions to suit all types of track and pole.
