Where can I get affordable curtains that are longer than a 90 drop?

All the ready made curtains seem to stop at 90, or at 108. I need 104. Is there a shop/ website that anyone knows where I won't have to re-mortgage my house to get some curtains for it?

Have you tried John Lewis caligula?

Ikea - but you'd have to hem them yourself to the right length...

I'd second Ikea - they have quite a range. And they include wonderweb, so you don't have to actually sew anythign if you don't want to...

I third Ikea too... Their curtains are huge!!!

JOhn lewis do longer drops, quite pricey though from memory.

Laura Ashley do long ones, and quite often have a sale or special offers that are worth waiting for.

((quick hijack))

Hi Foxtrot - missed you on the other thread! Hope you are ok.

WhizzBangCaligula · 21/11/2006 11:57

Have tried JL, but no ready made and am too scared to even ask about made to measure.

Ikea - didn't like any of them, boring, plain shroud-like things.

Laura Ashley. Hmm. Will have a look there.

((sorry for hijack - that TMP is sooo rude a bit snotty, thanks, and you?)

themaskedposter · 21/11/2006 12:02

snotty and 'chesty' (in the cough sense of course -lol)

((hijack over - as you were))

Dunhelm will make any material up for you & they're v.reasonable (much cheaper than John Lewis). They have a platinum range of limited fabric at certain widths where you can choose the drop - I got a leaflet last weekend & seemed v.good prices too, nice range of fabrics I thought. Also if Laura Ashley suits, their discount outlets are v.good if there's one near you.
or La Redoute?
