A simple design with soft, flowing folds.
Choosing made-to-measure curtains is all about being able to tailor the design to your taste by choosing from all sorts of styling touches. Among the most important decisions is which of our three header types to go for (that’s how the fabric attaches to the pole). Eyelet curtains are one of the options.
Modern and contemporary eyelet curtains will make a dramatic feature of your window thanks to the deep folds of fabric, which run in uniform lines from top to bottom. Eyelet curtains always hang from a curtain pole, which is threaded through metal rings.
'Eyelet’ refers to the header of the curtain. They are a contemporary choice, designed with metal rings on a header. The rings thread onto a 28mm curtain pole. Eyelet curtains hang in soft uniform folds that look neat and tidy, whether they're open or closed.
Windows are responsible for up to 20% of a home's heat loss. Our heat-retaining curtains and blinds can help to keep your home warmer, by reducing this heat loss by up to 41%.
All our curtains are lined as standard, but for rooms that really feel the cold a thermal lining will add an extra layer of cosiness. For even more warmth, pair thermal linings with naturally thicker curtain fabrics like velvet.
Layering your eyelet curtains over a blind will create an even snugglier space, plus give you additional flexibility over light control.
Yes, instead of a standard lining you can opt for a blackout lining for your eyelet curtains. This will help to reduce light coming into your room, although there will be inevitably be a little light seepage around the edges of the curtains and through the eyelets.
Teaming your curtains with a Roman blind will a blackout lining will help minimise the light further, creating a dark environment to wind down for sleep.
Yes, eyelet curtains fold neatly when they’re fully open, so they’re ideal if you’ve got a limited amount of wall space either side of your windows.
