Dressing Rooms
Dressing Rooms designs and makes by hand curtains, blinds and accessories in our West Sussex studio. Every project is individual, with designs, fittings and finishing made just for you and your home. We'll start with a free consultation in your home, where we'll find out what your vision is and how we can help you realise it.

We'll also take measurements so we can give you an accurate quote. If you choose to continue, we'll order your chosen fabric - or we can use your own. We'll then go ahead and create your curtains, blinds and fabric accessories (including bean bags, cushions and tie backs). We fit all curtains, poles, tracks, blinds and pelmets - there's absolutely no DIY for you to do.

We even plump the cushions. What if you choose not to go ahead after the consultation? While the vast majority of people do, if you decide it's not for you, that's no problem at all. You won't be charged for the consultation. Karen is fantastic! I'm very picky and she brought lots of fabric samples for me to choose from, and now, 4 years later I still have visitors comment on how amazing the curtains look Thanks Karen!
Services
I live and work in West Sussex with my family. When I'm not making curtains, you'll often find me socialising with friends, practising yoga and, when the mood takes me, flying around a pole at a pole fitness class (not a curtain pole, though). I grew up with a feel for fabric and a passion for design, but I also knew I wanted to work directly with people.
We design, hand make and fit bespoke curtains and soft furnishings that perfectly match your vision and lifestyle. Completely redesigning your home? Want to freshen up a tired or dated look? Whether you know exactly what you want, or you need help to make your ideas pop, we'll join you in your project.
Every Dressing Rooms curtain is handmade to your exact specifications, to fit your style and space. Karen provides an amazing service and is very talented - she's just wonderful and we are really happy with the solution she came up with for our front door. Before Karen made and fitted our curtain that is attached to our front door (so no problems opening/closing it), we had cold air coming in through the glass and small gap at the bottom.
A made-to-measure blind fits your window - and your style - perfectly, with no cutting, fiddling or compromise. We would like to thank Karen Rainford of Dressing Rooms for her excellent work in dressing eleven windows and a bed-head over the past six months.
We'll advise you on the options that will fit your space and design preferences and help you choose them alongside your curtains. Suppliers we use include Silent Gliss, Forrest, Bradley Collection, Hunter & Hyland and Cameron Fuller.

We had curtains and blinds made by Karen and she has done a fabulous job. She was great at helping us pick out the right fabric from the large quantities of samples she brought round. She then organised for samples of these and various pole designs to be delivered so we could see them in situ before making a decision. We are really pleased with the finished product and the advice and service Karen provided was excellent.

Karen provides an amazing service and is very talented - she's just wonderful and we are really happy with the solution she came up with for our front door. Before Karen made and fitted our curtain that is attached to our front door (so no problems opening/closing it), we had cold air coming in through the glass and small gap at the bottom. We didn't want a huge thick curtain that made opening and closing the door a pain and also wanted something that looked nice. Karen's solution is perfect! We love the fabric and the look of it and most importantly, we finally have a much warmer house!! Highly

If you need curtains made by a high-quality and reliable person, then I definitely recommend Karen. She did a brilliant job in my new house in Ealing. It was quite a large task. Karen was great from the beginning, helping me to choose the right fabric - and everything she made up fitted perfectly. Before I met Karen I had made to order curtain blinds from John Lewis. Although the quality of material was good, nothing quite fitted correctly. So if you are thinking of getting new curtains, definitely go for a pro.
