How to give your windows a speedy spring refresh
The experts at Blinds Direct have all the info you need to revamp your window dressings this season.

Fabulously floral curtains
Curtains are a timeless classic that create the perfect focal point for any space. From living rooms to bedrooms, picking the right design will elevate your room’s style with ease. Floral curtains in particular bring enduring elegance and a vibrant feature to any room, ideal for enhancing your home this spring. Other benefits include:
• Seasonal beauty: Floral patterns capture the beauty of nature, offering everything from realistic rose prints to modern interpretations of colourful blooms.
• Spring fabrics: Light, breathable linens and cottons are ideal for this season, offering a fresh, airy feel compared to heavier winter fabrics such as velvets and wools.
• Added functionality: Upgrade any curtain with a free blackout lining to block out unwanted light, creating a darker, restful environment for better sleep.

Finding the right curtain pole or track
Fitting a beautiful curtain is a great way to improve the style aesthetic of your window, but with the right curtain pole or track, you can enhance the look even further:
• Perfect the look: Curtain poles allow for various heading styles such as pencil pleat, tab top and eyelet, while curtain tracks create a sleek, wave effect.
• Styling options: Choose from a variety of decorative finials, from traditional balls to modern end caps, to add the finishing touch.
• Versatile designs: Available in multiple colours and materials, curtain poles and tracks can elevate the overall aesthetic of your room.

Light, airy fabrics
Perfect for spring, light, airy fabrics deliver a fresh and elegant touch to your home with the added benefit of maintaining privacy while letting natural light flood in:
• Voile curtains: These sheer fabrics bring a flowing, elegant movement to any room, offering a delicate way to introduce new colours while keeping the space light and airy.
• Versatile use: Voiles are available for both curtains and Roman blinds, and can be layered with a blackout option for adjustable light control.
• Illusion blinds: A stylish alternative to voiles, Illusion blinds combine sheer and opaque fabrics to gently filter daylight, while offering full privacy with a simple twist of the wand. Ideal for large windows, bi-fold and patio doors.
Dynamic day & night blinds
Day & night blinds offer the perfect solution for spring, when more natural sunlight fills our homes, with a versatile design that provides multiple levels of light control in one stylish blind:
• Two-in-one design: Also known as ‘zebra blinds’, these combine alternating fabric strips that can create either a solid block of colour or a stylish striped pattern.
• Custom light control: Block out light with solid colours or let natural light gently filter through with the striped design.
• Versatile functionality: These blinds can be upgraded to motorised blinds, adding even more convenience to your space.

No-drill Perfect Fit shutters
Perfect Fit shutters bring the timeless elegance of traditional shutters without the hassle of drilling or DIY. Designed to enhance your space—particularly in the soft light of spring—these shutters offer effortless beauty with simple, no-drill installation:
• No-drill installation: The innovative Perfect Fit frame simply clips into the beading of any uPVC window or door, eliminating the need for screws or drilling.
• Effortless elegance: Enjoy the classic look of shutters with minimal effort—no tools or DIY knowledge required.
• High-quality faux wood: Made from durable faux wood, these shutters capture the look of real wood while offering better resistance to moisture, making them ideal for any room, especially kitchens and bathrooms.
• Built to last: Unlike real wood, faux wood shutters won’t warp or crack, maintaining their beauty and functionality for years to come.
