Day 18- Mistake or lesson #MarchMeetTheMaker
Our mistakes teach us the biggest lesson. I realised that when I had to redo probably the biggest linen roman blind I ever made in my friend’s bathroom. The ‘do’s are very important, but the ‘don’t’s are far more important. . .... . . #londoncurtainmaker #smallindiebusiness #marchmeetthemaker #interiordesign #curtains #blinds #softfurnishing #madetomeasure #linenblind #linenfabric #bespoke #romanblind #bathroom #southwestlondon #london #whitefabric #white #londoninteriordesign

Day11- Reducing waste #MarchMeetTheMaker
I was looking forward to this day as I would like to tell you what I am to with my leftover fabric and hopefully soon I will start selling them via Etsy. Making fabric boxes from leftover fabrics came from a dear friend who asked me to do some boxes for the wardrobe to separate her clothes 😊 Since I make a few for myself and love them, they are good for draws, in bathrooms or even in kitchens! Let me know what you think of them! ... . . . . #smallindiebusiness #marchmeetthemaker #londoncurtainmaker #handmade #handsewn #madetomeasure #bespoke #reducingwaste #fabrics #leftoverfabric #curtainsandblinds #products #fabricboxes #bedroomdraws #bathroom #kitchen #organisingchaos @ London, United Kingdom

Agota Balint - Curtain maker
We're delighted with the result of our new curtains. I'd highly recommend Agota - very professional, speedy and friendly.
We have had 3 sets of blinds and a window seat cushion made by Agota Balint Blinds and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. Excellent service from start to finish including the fitting of the blinds. Swift service and attention to detail. Very happy indeed and in the process of a quote for large curtains now.
Such a friendly service - so professional and quick! Would highly recommend!
Really professional - great job and so pleased with the result. High quality and friendly/ efficient service. Thank you so much - so pleased with our curtains and blinds. Would definitely recommend!
Quick, well made and much nicer than John Lewis! From start to finish the experience was seamless and communication constant. Would highly recommend!

Just had our daughter's blind fitted today and it looks fab. Will definitely be back for more! Superb service - courteous and fast.
I've tried a number of local blind makers and Agota is one of the best. I've had a beautiful blind made, with a quick turnaround, very good price and with excellent service. I'd highly recommend!
I would highly recommend Agota and Janos - very professional, responsive, reasonably priced and a very speedy service and most importantly the blind looks fab!
Agota has made 4 sets of curtains for me now and we are absolutely thrilled with all of them. The quality and craftsmanship is superb, the turn around was quick and the customer service excellent.
Janos was on site for measuring and installing the fittings and curtains, and was also an absolute pleasure to work with. Always on time, polite and very skilled at fitting the curtains and blinds perfectly.
I had quotes from other retailers (John Lewis, online etc.) but am so glad I chose Agota and Janos as it has been a fantastic experience.
Highly recommended.
Agota and Janos are professional, speedy and above all excellent to deal with - I couldn't have asked for a better service. I highly recommend them.
