Elly did a fabulous job of making curtains and blinds. She offered advice on material choices, was flexible around visits to measure and was very accommodating when we had to delay curtain install (several times!) due to building works over running. We are really happy with the final product - the curtains are perfect and add a beautiful finish to our home. I would recommend Elly to anyone.

Elly helped us find the perfect curtains for our rooms. She's knowledgeable, creative and easy to work with to boot. Her fitter, Steve, is equally wonderful, works quickly and very tidy. I highly recommend their service.

Elly was extremely professional and lovely to work with. We had to find window treatments for our living room and 3 bedrooms. Choosing fabrics took ages as there is so much to choose from! Elly was very patient and encouraged us to take our time. Once she had a sense of what style we liked, she offered suggestions that we'd not seen and ultimately chose from. I appreciated that she tried to offer ways to fit a budget and meet delivery deadlines. The blinds and curtains are beautifully made and perfectly hung -- we get a lot of compliments about them. They are a great investment that make our house a home.

Elly Allen designed and delivered some beautiful curtains for our house in East Dulwich. She led us on the material, colour and design and delivered at every point. We believe you pay for what you get and the price we paid was for quality construction and finished curtains. We'd highly recommend Elly.

Elly was very kind in taking the time reconfigure four existing pairs of curtains I had, which was no mean feat! She also created a beautiful new set of bespoke curtains. Elly was very professional, communicative and friendly - highly recommended!

Elly had a great selection of fabrics and curtains were prepared and hung to a high standard - she is a bit of a perfectionist in a good way! She was also very helpful with problem solving tricky areas.

Absolutely wonderful service. Produced and installed beautiful floor length curtains and a large Kit-Kemp inspired headboard. Elly really took time to understand what I was looking for and went above and beyond to deliver fantastic quality and at a very fair price. Elly was really lovely to deal with too and I will definitely be calling upon her for any future upholstery needs. Thanks so much Elly - couldn't ask for more :)

Elly made some beautiful curtains and blinds for us and upholstered a chair to a very high standard. She was very helpful with assisting us to find the right fabrics and the quality of the finished products in situ is fantastic.

Elly had great recommendations for our strangely-shaped recessed windows during our initial consultation and provided a competitive quote. After measuring up, she supplied and fitted five roman blinds as well as taking up our living room curtains. The fitting was mess- and hassle-free and her communication (via email) was excellent throughout. Not only does everything look fantastic, the blinds fit those strangely-shaped nooks perfectly and work like a dream. Elly was a real pleasure to work with and I'd recommend her highly!
