Custom Curtains,
Made in Melbourne
Custom curtains are one of the most transformative things you can add to a home. The right curtains change how a room feels — they add warmth, soften acoustics, frame your view and pull everything together in a way that furniture and paint alone simply can’t achieve.
At Curtain Ideas, every curtain we make is custom. Sewn in our Clyde North workroom, fitted by our experienced installation team, and designed around your specific windows, ceiling height, light conditions and style. We’ve been helping Melbourne homeowners get this right since 2003.
Custom Window Furnishings, Made Just for You
Explore Our Range of Custom Curtains

Sheer Curtains
Sheer curtains are one of the most versatile window furnishings available. During the day they diffuse harsh light, reduce glare and give you privacy from the street without sacrificing natural brightness. Layered with a blockout curtain or blind behind them, they give you complete flexibility — light and airy during the day, full privacy at night. We carry a wide range of sheer fabrics including linen sheers, voile, s-fold sheers and wave fold sheers in hundreds of colours and textures. Our team will help you find the right weight and opacity for each room in your home.

Blockout Curtains
Blockout curtains are essential for bedrooms, media rooms and any space where light control and privacy matter. A properly fitted blockout curtain eliminates light gaps at the sides and top — something off-the-shelf options almost never achieve. We offer blockout curtains in a wide range of premium fabrics including linen, velvet, polyester and thermal-backed options. Combined with a quality track or rod system, they provide outstanding insulation against both heat and cold — making a genuine difference to your comfort and energy costs year round.
Why Custom Curtains Make a Difference
Off-the-shelf curtains are made to fit “average” windows. There’s no such thing as average. Windows have their own height, width, light exposure and architectural character, therefore your curtains should be made to match.

Posted on DianeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you, Sandi, and Team. Our curtains were installed last January, and we are very happy with the workmanship and the service. The quality of the material is beautiful; the block out makes sleeping easier as we have a streetlight outside our window and we believe it made a difference to the temperature control. All at a reasonable and competitive price. You were referred to us by my sister, and we have no hesitation referring you to others.Posted on Ian de CruzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. AMAZING VALUE FOR MONEY FOR CURTAINS AND BLINDS, FROM QUALITY OF MATERIALS TO SERVICE AND INSTALLATION Sandi, Carol and Daniel are an amazing team that provide tremendous value for money in window treatments from curtains to blinds to all your needs. Their prices are better than all the other companies we got quotes from including Spotlight!! Much more importantly they focus on quality and providing products that will last a long time and they attest to this quality if anything goes wrong. It started with Carol coming to our house to measure all the windows as part of getting our house renovated. She offered a range of options, listened to our needs and suggested solutions to tricky areas like bay windows with uneven sides. She encouraged us to visit their display centre in person. We then met the owner Sandi who has an incredible attention for detail that made us realise instantly this was the company and team to dress our windows in our forever house. She even suggested alternative materials at similar prices that were of superior quality. Shen then went into even further details in terms of the length of the curtains, what tracks would match our floor to ceiling curtains, and which side we should draw the curtains. Sandi invested in a product that exceeded our high expectations even to the point she asked Carol to come back to our house again to measure one of the curtains (see photo below) to ensure it was as symmetrical as possible to cover bay windows that were uneven. Finally, Daniel the installer was a joy to have in our house. He was incredibly professional and courteous and like Carol and Sandi was meticulous in his installation of all the curtains and blinds. Thank you again Carol, Daniel and Sandi for an incredible job in transforming our house. We will be coming back for sure for our ziptrack blinds to complete our deck in due course.Posted on Mohammed RasminTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best Of Luck 🤞 Masha Allah great jobPosted on mick O'BrienTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommended Curtain Ideas, very professional, high quality curtains. Barb was fantastic helping my mum choose her new curtains for her new unit. Barb was lovely and very professional, Barb gave us ideas of what type of net curtains would look nice and her professional opinion of what type of pleats to have. Curtains were installed earlier than the time frame expected. Barb went above and beyond to make sure my mum was happy with her decision. Thank you so much, my mum loves them and they look fantastic.Posted on Rajul AbeyratneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
