Curtain alterations

**backlassfarm** · 07-Sep-11, 18:25

Ever bought curtains but found they are just too long? Are they still lurking in the back of the cupboard?
If this sounds like a familiar scenario maybe I can help!

As a graduate textiles and design student who has finally moved back home, I'm in the midst of setting up a business and am ready and able to help with any curtain or blind alterations you may need......

Whether they are too long or too wide, too short or just don't look right, please give me a shout to see if I can help you out.

Service can include an initial home visit and measure up if required, local pick up and delivery included in the price.

You can get in touch via PM on the org, or give me a call on 01955 621849

Nope - Just tried that C3 - Hardly a sheaf had come out the side, and the Wonderweb had let go again....

Thanks Sheilapl! I'm sticking to the household side of things with this venture, but I can highly recommend Jennifer Easton for any clothing alterations you may need doing! She has a shop, JAED at 104 High Street in Wick, (Pollard's old mortgage shop) and is a whiz kidd with clothing, both alterations and made to measure garments
