I look at those curtains and I think how beautifully they have been made, with love and care, two years down the line, thank you for such lovely work.
We cannot recommend Louise highly enough. We are so delighted with our curtains, blinds and cushions. They have transformed our rooms. Right from the initial meeting to discuss our ideas and treatments for the spaces, to recommending and discussing fabrics, through to the final fittings and beautifully finished results. Louise is a real pleasure to work with. The exceptionally high-quality finish and personal service are second to none. Thank you very much.
Louise didn’t just make our curtains and blinds to our specification, she advised us and ultimately made what we were doing something that genuinely gives us pleasure every day. And it didn’t cost a penny more, in fact, the fabric we chose, in the end, was cheaper than the one we started off thinking we wanted!
A friend recommended Louise and I didn’t honestly appreciate how much of a difference she would make. It was the whole service of advice and ideas and then the quality of what you get is just something you can tell is on a different level to anything you can get out of a John Lewis or the obvious places.
We’ve tried many different curtains and blinds providers over the years, John Lewis, Laura Ashley and some of the cheaper online providers. However, we have never been so satisfied as when we found Louise Cowan. Hers is a personal service so that you can make sure that you get the best window covering suitable to your taste and budget without any expensive mistakes. Her blinds and curtains are also the very best quality. She’s now our ‘go to’ windows and blinds person!
I have been delighted by the curtains and blinds for the two bedrooms, so pleased in fact that I look forward to you returning this year to tackle more of the rooms.
I asked Louise to create some blinds for our dining room bay window. I had already chosen my London themed fabric, however, Louise added her own ideas and suggestions that were completely inspiring, including backing the blind with a vintage ticking, visible from the outside and that not only wholly complemented the main fabric but my own style. Her bespoke workmanship is wonderful, her eye for detail scrupulous, her manner and delivery warm and friendly but always very professional, with everything being made and delivered on time and to quote. There is still never a day goes by when I don’t look at those blinds with love!
Louise created beautiful blinds and pelmets for our newly decorated bedroom. They really are the perfect finishing touch. Fabric swatches were waiting for us when we returned from holiday and the job was completed within a few weeks. Excellent service, thank you!

Here’s a peek at me using my voile roller blind in my workspace! 🌞 These blinds are incredibly compact, making them ideal for spaces with limited height or for fitting neatly inside a recess. They softly filter sunlight without darkening the room and can be paired beautifully with a Roman blind for added style and versatility. Plus, they come in a range of colours with customisable headrail and chain options to suit any scheme…
This summer, my workroom got a complete makeover, and I’m so super happy with it. I have cleared out an enormous amount of fabric and I’m donating it all to local schools. It was so satisfying, and my space feels so much lighter for it.
I wanted to create a cosy, calming atmosphere, so I choose @farrowandball Mouse’s Back and colour-drenched the entire room. This technique has transformed the space into a serene haven. I also revamped my storage, and with my new table, the whole room just feels so inviting and such a tranquil environment to work in.
It’s incredible how much your surroundings can impact your mood. When decorating your home, start by considering how you want to feel in that space, and everything will fall into place….
After 10 years I decided it was time for an upgrade, so I designed my own cutting table. I had it made by a talented local carpenter, and it’s truly life-changing. When you use something every day, you know exactly what will make your life easier. The table on wheels is a game changer, and the extendable flap is perfect for those long curtains.
This table is a product of two tradespeople who create from scratch. Our shared eye for detail and appreciation of craftsmanship made it possible and I am so so happy, thank you Lee ✨
Pure joy and relaxation, those carefree holiday moments are everything… It’s amazing what a little time away can do for creativity and focus. Savouring the last few moments of summer as I start on some exciting new projects and there’s some newness coming too…
Sometimes it’s worth the splurge✨our boucle cushion with super soft, thick fringing is one of those luxuries that takes your space to the next level. It’s the perfect blend of style, luxury and cosiness….
This abstract herringbone print from @clarke_clarke_interiors has been a firm favourite for both curtains and blinds. It’s so versatile, fitting seamlessly into any style and just gives a perfect amount of texture and pattern without being too defined. It comes in a few colour ways but navy has been the most popular. The next roll of it is on my table ready to become roman blinds….
Sewing isn’t always smooth, I’ve had my fair share of broken needles, threading struggles, and always a few accidental pokes!! But despite the challenges, creating something beautiful brings me so much joy and satisfaction. Knowing that my work will add a special touch to someone’s home and seeing their reaction is so rewarding. I might not be saving the world, but I hope to make your space a little more special….
Here are a few reasons how cushions can transform interiors:
Instant Makeover. Cushions can instantly change the look and feel of any room with just a quick swap of covers.
Style Statement. The unique designs of your cushions make them perfect for adding a personal touch to your living space.
Comfort Upgrade, Beyond aesthetics, cushions also add an extra layer of comfort, with feather inners they not only feel super cosy they also make your space look cosy and inviting.
Whether you’re looking to refresh a room or add that finishing touch, the right cushions really can make all the difference….
There’s something special about stepping into a Soho Home store. A recent visit leaves me inspired, whether it’s the cosy textures, timeless designs, or the unique details that make each piece stand out. I’m constantly finding inspiration and new ideas for creating beautiful spaces…
There’s something so satisfying about a simple pull that transforms everything ✨
The brush fringing on our Otago cushion is so thick, luxurious, and soft, it makes the cushion perfect for adding a touch of texture and comfort to your interior…
A few snapshots of a wonderful family holiday in Provence. It’s such a gorgeous area of France. I can’t recommend it enough if you love fresh food, amazing wine, interiors and beautiful landscapes. Everything feels so stylish and well done, would love to go back and explore some more…
