Fabrics, I hate choosing fabrics! Need roman blinds for room painted F&B vert de terre.

The paint looks a little more insipid than I had imagined. Think we may want bold patterned fabric. It's for an office come play room with large bay window. What would you go for?

[ScentedScandal]

I highly recommend Roman Blinds Direct The choice is huge and they send samples. Yes I'd go for a bold pattern.

[Morehastelessspeed]

Thanks for the recommendation! What colour would you go for? Can't decide what will work with it and image search not helping.

[ScentedScandal]

Lol I wasn't much help with that bit was I? Do you like modern or more traditional themes? Is the room light and airy or darker?

[ggirl]

I would go for a pattern with purples/lilacs. There are thousands of fabrics out there . Do you like modern or traditional, do youwant childrens room type fabric?

[Morehastelessspeed]

More traditional. French or oriental theme maybe. Room is large and light. I'm good with paint colour then don't have a clue how to accessorise!

[heymammy]

I've just had some samples sent from //www.tuiss.co.uk the fabrics are lovely and appear to be very good quality.

[Morehastelessspeed]

Ggirl that's why I struggle! Too much choice and not sure what I like. Don't want children's fabrics as it is grown up room too. Can't see me selling purple or lilac to DH but will try!

[Morehastelessspeed]

Thanks heymammy, will check that site out too

[ggirl]

oriental although ot sure the green is a match

a more earthy colourway

very traditional but lovely

floral

less blousy

[ScentedScandal]

How about a brown/mocha colour? ie Or this. like this one a lot. I went through all this last year with my kitchen diner. Nearly made myself cross eyed trying to choose. I'm dithery about such things so probably not a great person to be giving advice.

[Morehastelessspeed]

Ooh, the second one looks lovely...thanks so much! Will get a sample.

I like this www.roman-blinds-direct.co.uk/stores/product/prestigious_raleigh_zest_roman_blind but can't decide if the yellow would look horrendous with the green!

Or this? www.roman-blinds-direct.co.uk/stores/product/prestigious_painted_garden_tropical_roman_blind

[Morehastelessspeed]

Thanks scented, I'm going to get some brown samples as think DH will be more impressed by that than my bold crazy choices!

Baby crying so off for now

[ggirl]

Love both those , the yellow may clash wiht the green a bit but I love that pattern.
Second one is lovely and fresh..a completely different look and very versatile for other accessories and colours in the room.

[LadyMud]

Ooh, what an interesting challenge! I always tackle re-decorating the opposite way round, by choosing the fabric first. Then I can match the paint with one of the colours in the pattern.

Anyway, I like stripes for roman blinds. What do you think of these?
Villomosa rosebud
Villomosa indigo

[Morehastelessspeed]

Thank you ladymud! I also love stripes and am thinking a traditional ticking for the kitchen (am trying to buy curtains for four rooms!). I really like the second one you linked to so will get a sample of that. Don't know what it is about mauve but to me it can feel dated.

I think I will want to be brave enough to go for my second link but will end up with your second link!
