THE IMPORTANCE OF DRESSING YOUR WINDOWS
It’s important to get the right solution for your windows – and here at AW, we can help.
Curtains, blinds and shutters are not only the vital finishing touch to a room, they are important for many other reasons.
Whether you choose simple or ornate, traditional or contemporary… on a practical level, window treatments act as a barrier to allergens (dust and pollen) and prevent moisture from condensation entering your rooms. They also increase privacy, improve the sound of your room, reduce the glare of natural light or block it out so you can get a good night’s sleep. They can shelter you from the sun – and keep out the cold. They keep you cosy.
And then, of course, comes the fun part. Curtains, blinds and shutters tie a room together. They can help make it look taller or more spacious. Most importantly, they add that extra pop… be it through bold prints, subtle hues, vivid patterns or bright colours – the choice is yours. But these days that choice can be bewildering – both through the sheer range of styles and materials available… and knowing exactly what will work best with the rest of your room’s interior. This is where we can help…
OUR BESPOKE CURTAIN, BLIND AND SHUTTER SERVICE
For over three decades, AW has been helping people ‘dress their windows’ – with style and panache, on time and within whatever your budget may be.
Ever since we opened our doors for business in 1989 (when we were known as B.E. White Curtains and Blinds Ltd) we have become a byword for top quality work and a personal service that is second to none. It’s why our customers keep coming back and recommend us to family and friends.
Tailor Made For You
Whether you are doing a single room (grand or small), refurbishing a period property, decorating your family home… or adding the human touch to new offices, a renovated hotel, office or shop, we have an expertise and range built-up and honed over more than 30 years.
Indeed, we boast one of the largest ranges of fabrics, blind/shutter solutions, poles, tracks and trimmings across the four counties of Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Cambridgeshire. Whether you come from Northampton, Bedford, or Cambridge, the surrounding areas of Sharnbrook, Olney and Kimbolton, or further afield – and whether you are a returning regular or using us for the first time, you will receive the same top-level, first-class customer care and attention.
We are proud of our heritage and tradition, a continuity that is helped by having all the original members of B.E. White staff still on board – as well as a new secret weapon! In January 2023, the award-winning Alex Wilson joined us and took over the company, adding over 10 years of interior design knowledge to our skilled service team.
We also offer upholstery services for pelmets, headboards, cushions, sofas, chairs and other furniture to complement your interior design.
So, if you’re looking to hang a hand-made curtain or fit vertical, roller or Venetian blinds, get in touch!
You can pop by our showroom in Higham Ferrers or St Neots, give us a call… or simply pop us an email. And we can take it from there.

THE BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH US
Feedback
CARLA, E
CLOPHILL, BEDFORDSHIRE“We are absolutely thrilled with the blind that AWC&B made for our kitchen. Alex guided us skilfully in the selection of our fabric, and Brian did an efficient and smart job of fitting the blind. The fabric is beautiful, and it is finished to an incredibly high standard. It is a particularly wide window, so the blind is quite the centrepiece and has really added the elegance, luxury and style we were hoping for. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.”

AMPTHILL, BEDFORDSHIRE“Alex and her team have been a joy to work with over the last months. During the refurbishment of my home, she has helped me identify the look that I want and maintain the flow throughout the house. Her assistance with colour choices has been invaluable. The showroom has a huge variety of beautiful wallpapers and fabrics, choice can be overwhelming, there again, I have valued Alex’s expertise in helping me make the right decisions. Visiting the showroom is always a pleasure, I can be assured of a cup of coffee and a chat with Alex or one of her team of talented craftspeople who make the highest quality curtains and soft furnishings with painstaking attention to detail.”
MAGGIE, P
HARGRAVE, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE“We have used the services of Alexandra Wilson and her team for a number of blinds and curtains for our new home. They have an excellent selection of beautiful fabrics to choose from, and Alex has been invaluable in helping us to choose the best fabrics for our schemes and budget. Brian came out and measured for us, and once the blinds were ready, he came and fitted them for us. The blinds are all finished to an impeccable standard and look stunning. We received a very professional and efficient service throughout. I would highly recommend and will only use them for our curtains and blinds in future.”

RUSHDEN, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE“We live in a Vicarage which needed a complete redecoration from top to bottom. Over a period of more than two years, Alex helped us do that room by room. She offered a magnificent, expert service for the whole house, bringing dozens of samples - carpets, curtains, wallpaper and paint, rugs, and dressing each room with furniture, paintings and ornaments. Everything - it was a complete makeover. Intuitively, she understood our style and aspirations. We like bold and eye-catching colour whilst keeping everything in harmony with an old property. We had an awful lot of fun! She also worked admirably within our budgets. Alex is meticulous and incredibly creative - a real godsend and a joy to work with. Our house is now complete, and we are extremely happy with every aspect of every room. We would have no hesitation in recommending Alex for any interior design purposes.”
