by tuiss :: Recycled roller blinds & Christmas trees
A couple of colleagues have just returned from Paris (lucky them) and reported seeing the most stunning Christmas trees! The trees in question are made from recycled water bottles and are lit to look just gorgeous.
Naturally this put us all in mind of our very own recycled roller blinds. The Index fabric, made from recycled water bottles is available in five contemporary colours; pure white, champagne, white sand, neutral grey and jet.
Designed by Fabrice Peltier, founder of Designpack Gallery, here for your enjoyment too are the very same trees.
tuiss 2011 Christmas delivery dates
We really want you to receive your order in time for Christmas! With the best will in the world, especially at this time of year there are sometimes circumstances that are outside of our control, from challenging weather to busy couriers.
Please order as soon as you can and we promise to sew, make and deliver just as fast as we can. Leaving it to the last cut-off date is ok but please bear in mind that there’s not much room to spare! To avoid disappointment please place your order as early as possible.
by tuiss :: Velvet curtains
For a sumptuous and luxurious look at the window hanging velvet curtains is a must. This rich fabric adds such warmth and texture to a room as well as looking so inviting. At tuiss we have some beautiful velvet fabrics that look absolutely stunning hanging in a swathe at the window.
If you prefer a roman blind we also have a great range of velvet roman blinds – two collections in fact – the Cadence Luxury and Velvet and Chenille.
I found this gorgeous picture at Graham & Greene that showcases the utter gorgeousness of velvet.
by tuiss :: Linen Roman Blinds
tuiss customers are a refined bunch and they go ever so slightly wild for linen roman blinds! Always thinking of our lovely customers we’ve introduced three new linen roman blinds into the collection.
We now have a pure white linen roman blind as well as the original Wild Linen Beige and White Linen Voile. In addition we have two linen cotton mixes that feature a linen weave, this fabric is available in white and ivory colourways.
This linen roman blind has the distinctive quality and texture of pure linen with a relaxed weave and gorgeous slubby texture. So lovey and soft to the touch with character and style in spades.
The pure white colour will lend an ethereal look to the window and create a very natural and organic vibe in the room.
by tuiss :: House Beautiful – Best Fabric Award winners
So pleased and proud to announce that tuiss has won the prestigious House Beautiful 2011 Award for best fabric! It’s so fantastic to receive an award for something we all love doing – choosing the best fabrics we can!
Some of the team attended the glitzy celebrity-laced awards ceremony and had a thoroughly wonderful time. The gorgeous award is safely in the office now and very much pride of place.
We thought we should share our delight with all tuiss customers so we’re offering 15% off some of our best fabrics.
by tuiss :: Energy saving roller and vertical blinds
How would you feel about lowering your heating bill but without lowering the thermostat and putting on an extra jumper? Sounds too good to be true doesn’t it?! Well you’ll be pleased to know that it’s entirely possible!
Windows lose five times as much heat as the same area of wall. By simply hanging an energy saving blind at the window less heat will escape and this alone can cut energy usage by 15%. NRG blinds have a special thermal coating on the rear that keeps the heat in and the elements out.
With a fantastic selection of colours there really is a blind for every room and style. Plus there are blackout energy saving roller blinds (just perfect for a bedroom) and energy saving vertical blinds (ideal for large windows).
tuiss Love :: HAM
HAM is simple yet quirky. Beautiful products designed and made in the UK.
HAM captures unexpected moments from the contented lives of a pig, a horse and a rabbit and immortalises them on a range of thoughtfully crafted wares for you and the home. We hope you enjoy their little everyday adventures as much as they do.
Check out the bouncing bunny and the scootering pig ! Priceless…
by tuiss :: New digital roller blind designs
We just love our Editions collection here at tuiss. The fantastic quality of these digitally printed blinds is just outstanding and the patterns themselves are something else.
I’m rather partial to the new Helligan Lime design featuring beautiful flowers in forget me not blue. The Morning Chorus design featuring birds is very popular, so popular that we’ve design three new colourways!
Featured here though is a paisley design, Modern Paisley Syon and an unusual design Cuisiniere Orange that’s perfect for a kitchen.
Why not take a look at the full collection of digital roller blinds?

by tuiss :: 100% Recycled roller blinds
Tick, tick, tick! Tick the style box, tick the green box and go on then … tick the texture box too!
This new collection of recycled roller blinds features the Cotton range which is made from cotton off-cuts and the Index range which is made from recycled PET (or drinks bottles if you’re not that plastic terminology savvy).
The cotton range has a lovely texture as well as a slightly open weave, it’s heavier than a voile but still allows a view through.
Cotton Pumice – recycled cotton roller blind
The index fabric has a streamlined and modern look and it’s made from one of the most modern wastes there is – plastic bottles. Each square metre is made from six plastic bottles.
