Ready-Made Curtains
As well as fulfilling an aesthetic purpose by complementing your décor and completing the look of your room, curtains perform the practical function of keeping the light out and halting upholstery fade, as well as keeping the warmth in.
- Available in a choice of lengths and widths, ready mades are both a time and cost-effective alternative to our bespoke Made to Measure service
- All of the curtains in our ready-made range feature pencil pleating, which requires simple gathering to achieve the required width
- The composition of ready-made fabric differs from the equivalent fabric as sold by the metre
- For best appearance, we recommend that you press all ready made curtains prior to hanging
- Dry clean only
- Laura Ashley offer a wide selection of poles, finials and accessories to complete your window treatment
Measuring
- Always use a metal tape measure for a more accurate result
- Measure the pole, rather than the window, to ascertain the width needed
- As a general rule, the pole should extend 15cm on either side to allow for the curtains to be pulled back.
- For length, measure from the bottom of the curtain ring so that the pole will be visible above the curtains
Sizes
Width measurements include both curtains when offered as a pair
- 64" to fit window/ pole length 152cm to 213cm (60" to 84")
- 88" to fit window/ pole length 198cm to 274cm (78" to 108")
