Details
My flat panel linen cafe curtains are a modern, minimalist take on traditional gathered cafe curtains for your kitchen, bathroom, living room, or any room in your home that needs a window treatment.
I use ONLY 100% linen for my curtains, never any imitation or "linen look" fabrics.
My linen is sourced from Eastern Europe, imported into an American company, and sourced specifically for your curtains.
My supplier states: "Every one of our fabrics is environmentally friendly and no part of our production causes air, noise or water pollution.
Linen is a beautiful, natural fiber that fills your home with a warmth unparalleled by imitation fabrics.
I'm a one-woman studio based in New England - when you send a message, I answer. When you place an order, I fill it. When your package is ready to ship, I'm that one that lovingly wraps it up and sends it to its new home!

linen is a natural fiber, like wool or cotton, and can experience changes to constitution based on extreme heat changes (hot water to cold water; cold water to hot dryer, etc).
washing instructions:
cold water wash on delicate ONLY
tumble dry LOW or NO heat
or air dry to be safe.
A hot iron with steam is actually linen's friend... exceptions to every rule

Thank you so much for these high quality, handmade curtains. I had been looking on Etsy for some quality curtains from a small business but most of the places I found were just drop shipping them from a third party. I'm so happy I came across this shop and am blown away by the craftsmanship. It's so important to shop small and support local creatives. Thank you - I would highly recommend to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's your production time for curtain orders - both custom and regular?
Typically I run at about 5 weeks for turnaround time.
This allows me time to collect orders, secure the necessary fabric, and get your order into the production queue.
I do my best to be as efficient as possible, and appreciate your patience while I complete your order just for you.
If you need something expedited you can always ask if I can make an accommodation.
What's the difference between Optic White and Ivory?
Optic White is a very bright, crisp white. It's a good choice if your decor is modern and bright, with cool undertones.
Ivory is a little softer, more of an "antique"white, though not yellow. It's a good choice for more traditional homes or homes with a lot of natural woodwork.
Both options are good, true whites, though, and the choice just depends on your surrounding decor.
How do I figure out what size curtain I need?
Pre-listed measurements in the listings are taken as if the curtain is lying flat.
If you need to figure out what width curtain you need, multiply your exact window width x1.5
(example: 24" wide window x 1.5 = 36" wide curtain)
This will give you an ideal measurement that will match the photos pictured in the listings. You can always go up or down, as necessary, or as desired. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.
What is linen??
Linen is the only fabric I use in my shop, aside from the occasional organic cotton.
"Linen" comes from the flax plant -- it's the stalk of the plant that grows flaxseed. The finished fiber is known as linen. It grows in a similar fashion as wheat, although it's also very different.
The technique of processing linen into a fiber is very ancient, as linen is one of the worlds oldest textiles.
It requires little water, and rarely requires pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers. The linen I purchase is grown in Eastern Europe and parts of Russia, with zero air, water, or noise pollution during is manufacturing.
It's a naturally eco-friendly fiber, resists staining, gets stronger when wet, and is naturally anti-fungal (great for homewares!)
