Elite 11+ shopping and chat thread

In my local Tesco, the yahoo milkshakes were reduced to 50p and the coupons still scan at £1 each so the overage can be used against other shopping.
hth.

please can I ask has anyone used Dunlemn mill for curtains and if so what was your experience please?

I feel sure there must be an Elite curtain expert

All other rooms in the house have blinds, its just the living room that has curtains and as they are literally decades old and floral its time to get them replaced. I think when we had the new wing built i just went to a curtain maker on the market and had them made but i am clueless and very daunted.

It is not going to be easy as there are 4 windows. There is a big patio doors and a wide oblong front window and both of these have wooden poles with wooden curtain rings. There are also 2 side windows long and narrow with pencil pleats - i think that's what they are called.
I have acquired maroon cushions and a maroon side lamp so that seems to be the colour (and lined )

Ive read the guide on Dunlemn milll website on measuring so thats my job tomorrow. Not sure if i just measure windows or the current curtains or both - or is that a stupid question.
They must be standard sized patio and windows anyway so ready made ones hopefully

Measure the width that you want the curtains to hang. Generally you want at least twice the width that you measure to allow for folds etc. So if your windows + bits at the side to fully cover was say 100cm, you want 200cm + of curtain ie each curtain should be at least 100cm. Easiest is to measure the curtain rail. I would say you want at least twice the width, possibly more if you are choosing pencil pleats, bit less if they just hang loosely off a pole.
Always go for a bit over rather than under, you don't want to be yanking the curtains to cover the gap in the middle.

For the length remember to allow for the bit of curtain above the track or from where they will drop if you are using a pole. You want to measure the exact drop you need. If you are using a track then the tabs usually give you a choice of positioning so you get them the right length without having to shorten.
