Blackout blinds

[TheRealSmurfette]

Local curtain place is saying £800 for made to measure blinds for 2 bay windows.

Ikea cut your own ones have terrible reviews!

Please tell me there’s a better answer?!

Both the IKEA and Habitat (via Argos) cut your own ones have been fine for us. It probably depends on what you want, though.

John Lewis has ready made curtains with black out lining. I have bought some for our bifolds.
I am going to have to hem them, but it works out much cheaper.

Dunelm do them.
I’ve always had IKEA ones and got on fine with them.

Blinds2- go with side tracks. Otherwise called cartridge blinds. Really good. You just have to be very careful when measuring.
