Decoration works requires a large sum of money, whether you contract it out or hire a designer do the works for you.
Thus, budget allocation is quite important! For many people, blinds and curtains are the items that can be purchased by themselves. Although it seems like an easy job, it affects the looks of your home greatly.

Don’t buy ready-made blinds just to save money
If the sizes of blinds in the mall fit in yours, ready-made products can help you save some money.
However, if the sizes doesn’t fit in your windows, you’ll have to endure light leaking from the blind sides and sun glares can’t be blocked out either. The overall effect of decoration is just barely satisfactory.
How to allocate the decoration budget for window coverings?
If you have limited budget, it is suggested to get the right ones once and for all, so that you won’t feel regret afterwards and waste more time and money on changing items.
It is recommended to save 5% to 10% of renovation budget for blinds and carpets, and the quality of life won’t be compromised by sloppy items because of insufficient budget.
Therefore, what is the price range of custom-made blinds?
What are the factors influencing price?
1. Fabric Material
① The fabric is imported from abroad or not
The price of drapery mainly depends on the fabric material.
If the fabric is made and imported from abroad, such as Zosen custom-made curtains from Japan, Coulisse Honeycomb Shade from Europe, these prices are relatively higher than other products in the same line.
② Sheer isn’t necessarily cheaper than blackout curtain
The price of light, soft sheer curtain isn’t necessarily cheaper than curtains; curtains are not definitely more expensive because it offers shading function.
The material and manufacturing process are the main causes affecting curtains and sheer curtains. Therefore, single-colored fabric is usually cheaper than fabric with embroidery or special patterns.
③ The more complex the structure, the more expensive the price
Honeycomb Shade has hexagonal hollow structure, which effectively block out air from indoor and outdoor space.
Because the structure of honeycomb shade is more complex, the price is usually higher than other blinds and shades.
However, many people still choose honeycomb shade at home to keep their space at constant temperature and keep heat out because of its superior functionality.
2. Sizes
It ‘s not difficult to understand that bigger the sizes are, larger quantity of fabric are required, and thus price are higher.
The beautiful shapes of ripples of curtains and sheer curtains hanging down largely depends on the amount of fabric used.
Between pinch pleat and ripple fold, the most common styles, ripple fold has clear curves in front of and behind the track, so the amount of fabric used is more than that of pinch pleat.
Hence, the market price of ripple fold is generally higher than that of pinch pleat.
3. Operating systems
One of the benefits of custom-made blinds and curtains is that operating system can be appointed considering your life style and space requirements.
There are many operational systems to choose from: strings, cord loop, hydraulic spring, cordless, motorized etc. Amongst them, strings is the standard operation and the most affordable option.
