Akita Lined Eyelet Curtains

It’s no wonder that so many of us are stuck in the past when it comes to curtains. Most of us grew up with curtains made from fabrics and adorned with fusty patterns. Decidedly mumsy – that’s what curtains always used to be like. Didn’t your mum (and her mum before her) always set great store by having an imposing pair of curtains in every room?

Whilst curtains like these are most handy for hiding behind whilst attempting to spy on the neighbours, they don’t really speak of modern, contemporary elegance. That’s party why so many people choose to have blinds instead of curtains – they look lighter, unfussier and brighter all round.

The good news is that you can achieve this breezy blind effect with curtains after all. Here at Kaleidoscope we’ve got lots of charming contemporary curtains for you to dress your windows in style. If you want to modernise your space – or add to its already contemporary vibe – then check out two of our favourites.

These Akita Lined Eyelet Curtains feature this season’s ’must have’ oriental inspired design. Their beautiful floral print comes in a range of fashionable colours. Light and gorgeous, these are a really contemporary choice.

Continuing the chic and contemporary feel are these Antoinette Standard Lined Curtains. Their bright floral design is very neat and given a fresh feel thanks to the neutral background, and there’s good news – these lovely curtains are on sale at 50% off!

For a limited time only we are offering standard delivery for just 99p! There’s no code to quote: just place your order and select standard delivery to take advantage of the 99p rate (see site for details).

Reversible Faux Silk Curtains

In this cold weather, with the long winter nights still hanging over our heads, it’s likely that our curtains are going to spend most of their time firmly shut. That’s why it’s so important to have curtains that you love all over your house. You need something pretty to look at if it’s too dark to enjoy the view outside!

If your curtains are looking a bit tired, take a look at the Curtain and Blinds section of the Kaleidoscope website. Just like all our other products, our curtains are “Designed to be Different” and we can help you to dress your windows beautifully.

When choosing your new curtains, have a good look at the rest of the room and how it’s decorated before you buy anything. If the room in question is already full of furniture, pictures and other homeware, then you’ll want a quieter and more neutral pair of curtains to provide balance and calm things down. Equally, if your room lacks a little colour or vibrancy, then a boldly patterned pair of curtains can add some much needed liveliness.

Here’s a super Online Exclusive for you: Reversible Faux Silk Slotted Top Curtains. These are most dramatic and sophisticated. They feature a soft textured faux silk slot top and this is fully reversible so that you can create and change your look each season. Complete the look with their matching cushion cases – cleverly, the cushion cases are reversible as well!
