Curtain choices
Comments (16)What a lovely room! Its certainly big enough to take a larger print, especially since your walls are neutral. I understand what clutteredval is saying, you are probably less likely to 'fall out' with your curtains if they are neutral, but from my experience of running a curtain & fabric shop, one of the main reasons people would come in wanting to change things was because they had gone for magnolia walls, neutral sofas, cream curtains & everything just seemed a bit blah! - how about choosing a large print with some colour, but perhaps sticking to a couple of colours such as something like this:http://www.georgiabointeriors.co.uk/curtains/gisella-red.html or this: http://www.georgiabointeriors.co.uk/curtains/clarke-clarke-folia-summer.html...See MoreHELP...I've been looking for the right curtains for almost a year!
Comments (30)Hello Ffion. As it was already mentioned above it is not recommendable to sleep with a window behind your head. Can you upload some more pictures of your bedroom? Just to have an idea how it is organised. I believe there is always solution ;). You can believe or not but your sleeping problems may be caused more by the placement of your bed then street lights. It is all about the energy flow in your room \ Marcin...See MoreHelp! Best colours for paint, carpet and window treatments for RENTAL
Comments (16)I have to agree with Crafty Countess about having a vinyl flooring. I would recommend Loose Lay by Karndean. The range comes in wood plank and stone tile effects, does not have to be glued down except around the edges of the room and damaged "tiles" can be easily replaced. They are made for commercial use, so are very durable and will retain their looks for years to come. From our own tenants, I've found that white or off- white works best. You'll never get a colour right for a tenant. In the past, we've hung curtains, which our tenants always ask to take down and put up their own. We've painted lightly fresh or richly cozy feature walls, which our tenants have asked to paint over. So we always use a neutral paint now. We allow our tenants to hang pictures, providing they repair and paint the holes when they move out and use wall stickups that they can take with them. The less colour you put in, the more you allow your tenants to make the space their own....See MoreBlinds for awkward windows
Comments (17)Regarding how easy it is to take the Blinds-2go blinds on/off (e.g. for cleaning, when your windows open inwards): I asked my partner who fitted ours, and he says that basically there are two small circle shaped pieces at either end of the roller. The roller then slots in to these (one on the left and one on the right), and then you twist and - et voila - it is held securely. He says that that because the roller is held fairly tight between the two end pieces it's not a job you would want to be doing regularly, but occasionally now and then for cleaning would be fine....See Moresarh123
