The pattern was printed on fabric that have become cushions and curtains. The cushions are sewn by the meter, so each cushion gets its own unique piece of the pattern. You can choose your personal favourite or combine several different cushions to get a small pattern variation in your sofa. "I wanted to create a pattern that you don't get tired of after a couple of years," says Emma. "It's timeless textiles that suit just as good in a neutral interior as in a more colourful environment." Sometimes it can be okay to take a sneak peek over fences as Emma does, because with VILDPERSILJA, you can get that feeling of an old-fashioned garden in your home – even if you live in the middle of a busy big city.

Product details
The fabric dims daylight entering the room and reduces glare. It gives a comfortable sense of privacy as people cannot see in. At night, silhouettes can be perceived from outside when the room is lit.
The 250 cm length is ideal if you want to hang the curtain above the window for a casual look.
The cotton/ramie blend creates a distinct character and texture. The fabric is durable, keeps its shape and is wrinkle-resistant.
Curtains with heading tape allow you to hang the curtain directly on the curtain rod using the rod pocket or tabs. You can also hinge the curtain onto a track rail using gliders and hooks.
Using gliders and hooks usually creates a more formal and dressed-up feel, where hardware is not visible.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.

Good to know
Curtain, 1 pair included.
The measurement applies to each individual curtain length.
The curtains are sold in pairs. The sizes stated refer to each single curtain. For the total width, double the width of a single curtain.
Since the fabric will shrink when washing it is a good idea to wash the curtains prior to cutting/hemming.
You can use SY iron-on hemming strip to shorten the curtains without sewing.
16 gliders and hooks are usually recommended for each curtain with a width of 145 cm. You can increase or decrease the number depending on whether you want narrower or fuller folds in the pleats.

Reviews
Lovely curtains Anonymous reviewerI'd been looking at these curtains for a while, but hadn't bought them as due to the size of our French window, needed two pairs. So glad we finally bit the bullet and bought them, as they're perfect! They're so pretty and exactly as I'd hoped, really easy to put up (we slide our wooden pole through the loops) and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.
Lovely curtains at an amazing price!Anonymous reviewerI was unsure about these at first glace as the pattern is larger than I'd expected but the bright, cheerful colours are just what I wanted. We are using them in our spare bedroom recently converted into a playroom for our grandchildren and they fit thd bill perfectly, without being too "childish". They will still be suitable as the kids grow up.
AmazingAnonymous reviewerReally beautiful curtains, the pattern is beautiful. Genuinely impressed with the level of light that comes through, even though not blackout. They do a great job of keeping the light levels low! Stunning.
Lovely curtainsAnonymous reviewerVery happy with my purchase, quick delivery, nice quality and look great.
Good quality but fabric doesn't line up Anonymous reviewerBought two pairs of these, but was disappointed to note that pattern hadn't been matched on header tape, so pattern doesn't match for length of curtain. It might not bother some, and I was able to remake them, as I had enough length of curtain. I can't fault the fabric, and they were well stitched, but disappointed that I needed to remake. I thought about returning, but think for the price, all likely to be the same
Exactly as described Anonymous reviewerFantastic curtains so easy to fit and look great
Lovely and brightAnonymous reviewerLovely winter colours with matching cushions
New curtains - surprisingly good qualityAnonymous reviewerCurtains look good, very easy to hang. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of fabric and manufacture as IKEA has started to slip up in the last few years.
BeauuuuuutifulAnonymous reviewerFirstly bought the dark ones for my bedroom that’s painted in emerald green They didn’t go well there so I put them in another room with almond walls. It looks brilliant there. I also bought the lighter - white version which complements my emerald green walls perfectly. Definitely recommend. They hang really well. Used them with the riktig hooks to make some nice pleats.
Also bought the pillow cases that go with them.
As a little minus wish they had lining.
Just perfection!Anonymous reviewerI have really loved the IKEA floral/forest type curtains, since I first bought a pair way back when! These are as gorgeous as anything else I’ve bought! Thank you and keep up the unique designs!

Story
Hand-painted pattern invites the garden
Apples, fig leaves, winding ivies, roses, marigolds and hollyhocks. The pattern on the VILDPERSILJA curtain and pillows brings summer's lovely abundance and colourful splendour into your home. The inspiration comes from the designer's daily walks.
Designer Emma Prowse loves the winding streets in her hometown, the Swedish medieval town of Visby, and that's where the idea for the VILDPERSILJA pattern was born. "I usually peek into the lush gardens that hide behind high plank fences. There, I can catch a glimpse of lush apple, walnut and fig trees, but also roses and many other amazing flowers in all kinds of colours.” Painted with gouache colours Emma began sketching things she had seen during her walks. "My sketches are always a bit messy and nothing I want to show, but here they were important to test the different plants, investigate how the leaves and flowers can combine and how the pattern can be repeated." In the next step, Emma created the pattern with gouache colour in a summery palette. "With gouache, which is an opaque watercolour, I was able to focus on colour and shape and create depth in the pattern. I wanted to capture that feeling I get when I walk around the gardens."
Timeless pattern with variation
Material
Ramie and cotton
Ramie is one of the oldest crops used for fabric production, having been used by ancient civilizations in Asia and Egypt for thousands of years. It is known for its great ability to hold its shape. Ramie looks like linen and has a silky sheen. Blended with cotton, you get vivid colours and a greater lustre.
Function solution
The fabric dims the daylight
The fabric dims the daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and reduces glare. It gives you a comfortable sense of privacy because people cannot see in during the daytime. At night, when the room is lit, it is possible to perceive shapes and silhouettes from outside.

Designer thoughts
“The pattern for VILDPERSILJA curtain and cushion cover is one that had been simmering in my mind for a while. It’s inspired by the old houses that line the streets of Visby, Gotland where I live, with charming walled gardens full of roses, fruit trees, hollyhocks, ivy, daisies, marigolds, figs and walnut trees. Whether you are looking to add life and a splash of colour to a neutral-toned space or to make your urban flat cosier – this versatile pattern connects you to nature."
