Curtains, Blinds & Fabrics

Dickinsons Furnishers offers a complete made-to-measure service for curtains, blinds, and soft furnishings. From roller and venetian blinds to roman and vertical pleated styles, every order is handled with care — supported by our in-house design service and dedicated soft-furnishing workroom.

The art of dressing a window goes far beyond simple coverings; it is about shaping the light, mood, and character of a room. Our made-to-measure curtain service begins with a thoughtful consultation, where we help you navigate an extensive fabric library filled with collections from renowned design houses. Every curtain is then carefully crafted in our own dedicated workroom, ensuring each pleat, hem, and heading is finished to your exact specifications. Whether you favour a relaxed, flowing drape or a crisp, tailored look, the result is a window treatment that feels uniquely yours, adding warmth and texture to your home.

Blinds offer a wonderfully versatile approach to light control and privacy, available in a wide array of styles to suit any room. From sleek roller blinds and classic venetians to soft roman folds and practical vertical pleated designs, there is a solution for every window shape and lifestyle need. Our team guides you through the options, helping you choose the perfect fabric, colour, and finish to complement your interior scheme. Each blind is made to measure, ensuring a precise fit that enhances the architectural lines of your space while providing the functionality you need day to day.

Beyond curtains and blinds, our soft furnishings service extends to the finer details that make a house feel like home. Cushions, throws, upholstery, and decorative trims can all be sourced and crafted to coordinate with your chosen fabrics, creating a cohesive and inviting atmosphere throughout your living spaces. Our in-house design team works closely with you, offering expert advice on fabric selection, pattern mixing, and colour harmony. Whether you are refreshing a single room or undertaking a complete home transformation, these finishing touches bring a layer of comfort and personality that truly defines your interior style.

We believe that beautiful interiors are built on a foundation of quality materials and expert craftsmanship. Our long-standing relationships with leading fabric and flooring brands mean we can offer you access to an exceptional range of textiles, wallpapers, paints, and floor coverings, all under one roof. From the initial spark of inspiration to the final installation, our friendly and professional team is with you every step of the way. With a heritage dating back to the late nineteenth century, we bring generations of experience to every project, ensuring your home is furnished with care, confidence, and enduring style.

Made in Our Workroom

Unlike many retailers who outsource make-up, Dickinsons retains full control of quality by producing curtains and blinds in our own Northumberland workroom. This means every pleat, hem, and lining is finished to the standard we have upheld since 1878.

We work with interlinings, blackout linings, thermal coatings, and hand-sewn headings — whatever your project requires.
