If you go for poles I think they'll have to go from wall to wall, so that when the curtains are open, you get as much light into the room as possible.

Really?!

No, but don't tell BOAB.

Sounds like the basis of a romantic novel......he wanted help with his curtains....they found themselves being drawn together.....she was a Pole and he was well hung!
Chapter 2.............

Chapter 2.......They had a small gathering for their wedding, and then went on honeymoon to Venice - where they took pity on a blind beggar (Venetian blind) and gave him their rings. Sadly when they returned home their relationship started to unravel. He found her incessant talking irritating and often wished he could shutter up.
They decided that they could no longer stay together - but they still hook up once in a while......

Finally, after a long train journey, this is the correct address. I hope he has got the kettle on!

And for the sake of non-gender stereotyping, can I just point out how much useful advice has been given by MEN.

Agreed
I had the whole house colour scheme, layout, fixtures and fittings chosen and colour co-ordinated before I got the keys. It's not that difficult given a little thought.
There's nothing unmanly about picking up decorating magazines and colour charts.

I'm for Dunelm too. Also second the lining advice - You'd be amazed at the difference decent curtains make to temperature on cold nights.

That made me laugh. I've never heard of this place but it sounds like my cup of tea. Most of my stuff is Habitat, well, just tat really.

i think i like the white look...

 

[dellzeqq]

nnooooo!!!!!!!!!

Cream curtains. Big, big white room, 9 foot drops. Pale floorboards, white screen windows, bleached wood pole. Darling, we've done that. Dust blown in through the window turns in to a different, less nice shade of cream. Every hair looks like a varicose vein. Every little speck of dirt turns in to the Nuremberg Rally (DZ wins Godwin Curtain prize!)

Get an old blanket from the charity shop and nail gun it to your window frame*. What's so hard in that?

*Only the top, obviously.
