When it came to decorating and furnishing the interior of our newly renovated home in London, we realised we needed help. Carrie understood immediately the style we wanted to achieve and the need for practical ‘family friendly’ choices. Her advice was invaluable. Carrie guided us on carpets, rugs, paint colours, sofas and all blinds, curtains and cushions were made by Blakeney interiors. We now have a contemporary, stylish yet practical home we are proud of. I couldn’t recommend Carrie highly enough.

I have been lucky enough to have used Blakeney Interiors over the last 16 years. Carrie Blakeney has made all my curtains, blinds and sofas which are of the highest standard. Recently I needed my kitchen redecorated and was struggling with choosing a colour from what seemed to be an endless range. I rang Carrie and she came round with colour boards and spent an hour helping me choose taking in to account the colour of the stone floor and blinds.
She intuitively knows what I like, but gently prompts me to a correct choice. She also ordered the paint for me which was delivered to the house. No job is too small. Carrie has recovered old stools and chairs, and helped me choose new fabric to recover my old sofa. She also provided magnificent tie backs for curtains and appropriate curtain poles which suited the house.

Working with Carrie has been an absolute pleasure. Carrie saved us a lot of time by advising us on paint colours throughout our house, which meant we didn’t have to waste time and money testing out hundreds of paint pot samples! She completely understands the paint palette and understands the colour charts in detail, understanding a colour’s underlying tone. She has impeccable taste and not only helped us with paint colours but also with curtain fabrics, lamps and furniture. Lastly, Carrie never pushes products and is always sympathetic to budgets and styles.

I wanted to write to let you know how delightful it has been working with you on our most recent development, ‘Yew Trees’. I have now been developing country house for 14 years and I can honestly say that with your involvement our product has improved greatly in terms of interior design. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to either another developer or indeed friends of ours. I very much hope we can work with you on many future projects.
