Bespoke Handmade Curtains Designed to Perfection

At Hue House, we are passionate about creating exquisite handmade curtains and made-to-measure designs tailored to your exact requirements across Kent.

Unlike ready-made curtains, which often compromise on fit, fabric choice, and curtain heading, our bespoke curtains are crafted with precision and care to suit your space perfectly.

With over 60 years of experience, our dedication to craftsmanship and detail ensures that every curtain we produce is as beautiful as it is functional.

From concept to installation, we deliver timeless high quality designs that transform your space with elegance, quality, and style.

For the best results, we recommend using a tape measure to measure your windows carefully before ordering. We provide an easy-to-follow curtain measuring guide, or we can handle this for you during your consultation. 

If you’re measuring curtains online yourself, simply take two measurements: the curtain drop (from pole or track to desired length) and the full width of your window or wall.

Our team is always on hand to advise.

Curtain Styles We Offer

No two spaces are the same, and neither are our curtains. Whether you prefer classic designs or modern silhouettes, we offer a range of styles to suit your needs, including handmade curtains crafted with care and attention to detail.

  • Double Pinch Pleat Curtains: Perfect for creating a timeless, tailored look. These pleats provide excellent fullness and structure.
  • Wave Curtains: A modern and minimalist option, offering clean lines and effortless drape.
  • Lined and Interlined Curtains: Elevate your curtains with extra insulation and fullness, perfect for improving warmth, light control, and energy efficiency with the option of a thermal or blackout lining.
  • Sheer Curtains: Add softness and light diffusion for a breezy, elegant finish.
  • Pencil Pleat Curtains: A classic and versatile header style, ideal for both traditional and contemporary interiors. These work well with both curtain tracks and curtain poles.
  • Blackout Curtains: Ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms, these curtains block out light completely while offering a sleek, stylish finish.

We also offer eyelet curtains, using durable curtain rings that glide smoothly across your chosen pole, and pinch pleat curtains that provide a more formal and decorative style.

All our curtains are made to measure, including our beautifully created handmade curtains, ensuring a perfect fit for windows of any size such as bay windows, dormers, and unusually shaped spaces.

For customers wanting to match their made to measure curtain style with blinds or accessories, we can make roman blinds, scatter cushions, and even upholstered pelmets in the same fabric. This allows you to create a cohesive interior scheme that pairs perfectly with your chosen handmade curtains.

Every curtain is custom made to fit your windows perfectly and reflect your individual style.

The Art of Curtain Layering for Style and Function

One of the most impactful ways to style made-to-measure curtains is through layering.

Combining sheer curtains with lined or blackout fabric adds not only depth and softness to a room but also flexibility in controlling light and privacy. 

Sheers filter daylight beautifully, while the outer layer offers insulation and darkness when needed.

Layered curtains are especially popular in bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices, allowing homeowners to enjoy natural light during the day and full privacy at night. 

This approach also provides opportunities to mix textures, colours, and even patterns for a more dynamic interior scheme.

Comparing Curtain Headings: Style Meets Practicality

Curtain headings are often overlooked, but they significantly affect how your curtains hang and function. 

Pencil pleat headings create a soft, gathered look suitable for classic interiors. Pinch pleat curtains offer more structure and visual weight, ideal for formal spaces like dining rooms or studies.

Wave headings suit modern minimal interiors, with a uniform ripple effect that works beautifully with wide windows or sliding doors. 

Eyelet curtains, threaded through curtain poles, provide a contemporary, clean look and are easy to open and close, making them a popular choice for family homes.

Your choice of heading will also determine your curtain hardware.

For example, eyelets require poles, while pencil and pinch pleats are compatible with both curtain tracks and hooks.

Curtain Care

Caring for Your Curtains

To keep your curtains looking their best, it’s important to follow care instructions based on the fabric and lining used.

Many of our fabrics are dry-clean only, particularly those with interlining or special finishes like blackout coating or thermal backing.

Regularly dusting or lightly vacuuming your curtains using a brush attachment will help prevent the buildup of dust and allergens on the other side.

For sheers or lighter cottons, gentle hand washing or a delicate machine cycle may be appropriate.

It’s also worth considering sun exposure. South-facing windows can cause fading over time, so we may recommend special lining or protective interlining to prolong colour vibrancy.

Sustainable Choices in Curtain Making

At Hue House, we recognise the growing demand for eco-conscious interiors.

That’s why we offer a selection of sustainable curtain fabrics, including organic cotton, linen, and recycled fibres.

By choosing made-to-measure curtains, you’re also making a more sustainable choice compared to mass-produced alternatives. 

Bespoke curtains are crafted to last, with minimal waste, and you avoid unnecessary returns due to poor fit. 

Our hand-finished approach ensures durability, and we’re happy to advise on the most sustainable materials and lining options for your home.

Made to Measure Curtains for Every Room

Every room in the house can benefit from handmade curtains tailored to its specific needs.

In living rooms, floor-length drapes with wave or double pinch pleats add elegance and height. Consider thermal interlining for added warmth.

In bedrooms, blackout curtains or curtains with a thermal/blackout combination lining create a restful environment.

For nurseries, we recommend blackout curtains with a soft header, such as a pencil pleat, combining light control with a calming aesthetic.

Bathrooms and kitchens, often overlooked, can be enhanced with shorter curtains or sheer roman blinds in moisture-tolerant fabrics.

These add softness without sacrificing practicality.

Why Mass-Produced Curtains Don't Compare

Off-the-shelf curtains often use cheaper fabrics, less precise stitching, and universal sizing that rarely fits perfectly.

Seams may be overlocked quickly, and there’s limited control over the curtain drop, width, or pleating detail.

In contrast, bespoke curtains from Hue House are designed with purpose, proportion, and longevity in mind.

We account for every detail: lining choice, heading tape, curtain rings, pole compatibility, and room usage. 

With made-to-measure curtains, what you get is truly a one-of-a-kind product, created specifically for your home.
