    I have just decorated our spare room (bed and office desk). Below is the duvet cover. The walls are painted a light mushroom colour and the accessories are all lime coloured. I want to put a roman blind on the window and cannot for the life of me find anything to match. I have been looking for a striped material picking up the colours in the room but I cannot find anything. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

    Prestigous Textiles do a nice 1950's inspired range that would tie in nicely with your duvet cover but i can't find it online. Might be best to call into a stockist locally and ask about it.

    I wouldn't be too concerend about the blind matching the fabric exactly. Once it's from the same pallette or aesthetic it'll work perfectly.

    Good call Missey, I went round the shops today with all my swatches and I actually saw that range. I really liked this one, think I will go with it.

    Nice matching Orla Kiely duvet and pillows you have there!

    Why dont you buy another duvet with the same design and use the material in it to make the Roman Blind? (I know someone wo can help you with the blind making)

    I thought about doing that but it's a small room and I think it might look a bit of an Orla overload :D
