Mary began her business in 2002 having trained at Merrick and Day, the curtain and blind makers. Soft Furnishings by Mary Clarke developed into a full time business in 2005. Mary is based in Rickmansworth in Hertfordshire, but can cover a wide area of the UK. Mary loves fabrics, and she enjoys working with her customers to complete their rooms with her made-to-measure curtains and blinds. She also specialises in making tie-backs, pelmets and cushions and is happy to make adjustments to existing curtains or blinds, especially if items are to be re-used in another house.
The best way to fit Roman blinds is on a mechanism with a chain to open and close them. There are several ways of making roman blinds. Mary Clarke can guide you towards the right method, depending on the type of fabric that you choose.
They can be made from a fabric you choose or Mary has books of fabrics especially for roller blinds. The aluminium comes in several colours and the wooden blinds are available in neutral tones, or natural shades of wood. These blinds were originally used in offices but with the wide range of fabrics available they can give a contemporary feel to a room. They are a great solution if you haven't got a lot space. One of their best features is that they can fully open to both sides or to just one side of the window.
Mary supplies poles and tracks on which to hang your curtains, and works with a reliable fitter who will fit the poles and tracks. Ensuring you get the right track or pole to take the weight of heavy curtains is very important. Spending money on good quality poles is important.
