Generally, do people prefer to hang curtains with rings or eyelets? And why?

I have been running my soft furnishings company for over 8 years and I would say 95% of clients choose pleated heading curtains rather then eyelet curtains. This is because eyelet curtains can tend to look a little 'off the shelf' and hand pleated curtains look more luxurious. :-)

I would also agree that you can buy poles which have passing brackets & C rings to enable more brackets to be fixed. There are also some pretty modern tracks on the market now available in colours other than white. If you just want to add warmth to the room, you could think about having blinds for privacy and then just adding a short length of track or pole at each side of the window on which to hang 'dress' curtains! So that you have the effect of curtains without the expense of having to cover such a wide window

Thanks so much Annika for sending me the pictures, it looks great. I'm definitely going to suggest this to the new curtain-maker. Quick question - do you know if I would need more length if I used this heading (I have a pencil pleat heading at the moment)? Reason for me asking is that I am wondering if I really need a border or if the heading could be changed using the existing material (and then I would have to keep the track where it is now). Thanks again.

will eyelet curtains work?

I think with that window right by the wall, it would be difficult to have curtains anyway as there’s no room for a pole or track on the right- hand side of the window. For that one, a blind inside the recess might be necessary.

Our opinion on eyelets is like many others - they do look less "professionall" also - if your window is wide , or a bay, they will not pass the support brackets if the pole

Hand- sewn pleats are far more stylish
