I'm trying to find some curtains for my new place but can't find anything the right size.

Need 220cm wide by 120cm length. Or some where around there.
But I can't find anything near that size and made to measure ones are all coming back £80-£150
Just want something dark coloured or black for ~£25 ish.

Ikea... They do massive ones that you can cut down to size if they aren't quite right. You get the wonder web stuff and tiebacks too. We got a pair in blue for the back room, they're like blackout curtains. Think they were about 15-20 quid.

Yeah i was about to say ikea, ikea is amazing for some things and totally overpriced for others, just make sure you buy the right stuff :p

Thanks guys totally forgot about that webbing stuff. Got some from asda much better quality and cheaper than ikea.

Will get some of that webbing stuff at some point to shorten them down.

I bought mine 6 years ago for £17 quid when Asda were still just selling veg. Let's see how good yours are in 2016 :p
