The perfect pairing for any curtain or blind is the perfect wall colour. At Sophie Sews we work with the amazing Little Greene which is an independent British paint manufacturer, producing high quality, socially and environmentally responsible paints and wallpapers.
Little Greene’s ‘Intelligent Satinwood’ paint is the ideal finish for kitchen cabinets. The paint dries to a beautiful mid sheen, providing protection, longevity and a smooth satin feel to your kitchen doors and woodwork, without being ‘too glossy’. This means you don’t have to compromise on beauty or practicality and can choose your favourite Little Greene shade safe in the knowledge it can withstand the wear and tear of modern family life.
Little Greene’s Masonry Paint is available in almost all Little Greene colours. It can be used to achieve a long-lasting, matt finish on brick, stone or rendered walls. Water-based, Masonry Paint dries quickly to a pleasingly smooth finish and is highly dirt resistant with anti-fungal and anti-ageing properties ensuring it looks good for longer.
Highly regarded exterior paint from Little Greene.
Little Greene’s Intelligent Exterior Eggshell and Intelligent Gloss are perfect for wooden front doors and are really robust and durable. Easy-to-apply and quick drying, they have very little odour and they’re available in all Little Greene shades.
For a high-gloss finish, Intelligent Gloss has a sheen level of 80%. Intelligent Exterior Eggshell has sheen level of just 15% and is perfect for a flat finish.
Little Greene’s Intelligent ASP strong primer will give your door extra protection and depth of colour as it is tinted to your chosen colour.
The recommended paint for UPVC is Intelligent Exterior Eggshell.
Little Greene’s ‘Exterior Paints’ family offer a combination of strength and beauty. ‘Intelligent Exterior Eggshell’ is both weather resistant and completely washable, ensuring your newly transformed piece of furniture will look beautiful for years to come. It is touch dry in just 2-4 hours, allowing for a finished project in just one afternoon.

An excellent and very professional service, there was a very wide selection of fabrics to choose from and some very welcome advice offered when asked for. The fitting of the finished curtains was quick, clean and to a high standard the five stars is without reservation.
We used Sophie on our Victorian cottage refurbishment project. Our brief wasn’t simple – we wanted blinds made with vintage fabric, and we wanted existing curtains cut down and redesigned – but Sophie was brilliantly accommodating, understood exactly what we were trying to achieve, and delivered what we wanted within budget and well in time for us to move in. We were absolutely delighted!
The service was excellent and Charlotte was great at advising and helping us choose the perfect fabric for curtains for our Snug room. Once they were ready Kathryn was in touch straight away to arrange the fitting. The fitting team were amazing and did such a good job getting the curtains up in our bay window. We are thrilled with them! Thank you all very much. Helen & Damien Honey.
