If you feel like something a little different then you really should check out our limited edition fabrics. With their special limited edition sticker they’re easy to spot but hurry as they really are limited! Many of the fabrics are available as both roman blinds and curtains.
My particular favourite at the moment has to be the Amari Passion fabric with its paisley design in cornflower, mulberry and dusky rose.
Our buyers travel the world sourcing beautiful fabrics and in their spare time visit local fabric markets to find these hidden gems. Exceptional exclusive fabrics at very affordable prices, but hurry quantities are strictly limited.

With their intriguing name you could be forgiven for wondering what a bottom-up blind actually is! Quite simply this type of blind works from the bottom up; the roll of fabric sits towards the window sill and is then raised through a simple pulley system to the top.
The advantage of this blind is that it creates privacy at the bottom and then allows the light to flood in at the top. Bottom up blinds are ideal for rooms that are overlooked, whether they be rooms next to a busy street or rooms up high that are overlooked by other tall buildings.
Before the advent of bottom up blinds the most popular solution to creating privacy has been to lower the blinds or close the curtains. The only problem with this has been that you end up sitting in the dark! Now you can raise the blind from the bottom therefore keeping the room private but still allowing light through at the top. You can happily sit in a light and bright room right next to the street, maybe watching TV or sipping coffee, while pedestrians pass by completely unseen.
These blinds are also a great solution to cutting down the glare on screens but still allowing some light to enter the room.
Available with standard fabric or blackout fabric these blinds are suitable for both living areas and rooms such as bathrooms. A blackout bottom up blind will ensure that bathrooms are lovely and light but privacy is protected with no outlines or shadows showing through to the outside world.

Dear Photograph is an addictive pleasure, you can’t help but view the next page and the next page and the next page …. The website is a series of old photographs overlaid with new and has become so popular there’s a book out soon too.
The journey I’ve been on these past eight months has definitely sent me over the moon with excitement and has been surreal, to say the least. More important, it has been and continues to be a journey filled with gratitude. I want to thank each and every one of you for your beautiful and inspiring submissions. It’s an absolute privilege to view and share your photographs, along with your personal stories, each and every day with everyone from around the world.

If you have a room with a view and plenty of furniture then this wallpaper probably isn’t for you. On the other hand if you want a bespoke look then this hand-drawn wallpaper from Caroline Mann is just the thing.
Just for comparison (and to show how on-trend and cutting edge we are) here’s a recent tuiss graphic. Great minds think alike me thinks!
