Window furnishings are often one of the final renovation items—but that doesn’t mean they should be an afterthought. With the right strategy, even homeowners on a tight budget can enjoy beautiful, functional curtains and blinds without compromising on quality.
If you’re moving into a new BTO or resale home and watching your renovation budget closely, here’s how to plan smart using a starter package.
Window treatments involve more than just fabric. Costs typically include:
Curtain/blind materials (sheer, dimout, blackout, etc.)
Track systems or motorized components
Measurement and custom tailoring
Installation by trained professionals
For a full home, this can range from $1,000 to over $4,000, depending on fabric quality and system complexity.
A starter window furnishing package helps reduce cost while covering your home’s essentials. At HM Gallery, we offer affordable curtain packages that include:
Curtains for bedrooms and living rooms
Free measurement and consultation
Standard track installation
A curated selection of durable, stylish fabrics
This is ideal for first-time homeowners, those waiting to upgrade later, or temporary setups before long-term interior styling.
If you can’t do the whole house at once, focus on the most essential areas:
✅ Bedrooms – where privacy and blackout are needed
✅ Living room – especially if you have full-height balcony glass
✅ Service yard or bathroom – consider basic blinds for moisture control
You can add or upgrade later in non-critical areas like the study, guest room, or hallway.
To stay within budget, consider:
Dimout instead of full blackout for privacy with light filtering
S-fold curtains for easy maintenance and sleek modern looks
Roller blinds in wet areas (affordable and moisture-resistant)
Manual track systems instead of motorized—upgrade later
Stick with neutral fabrics like grey, beige, or off-white—they’re timeless and easier to match with any future theme.
Saving money also means choosing curtains that are:
Machine-washable or low-maintenance
Resistant to dust and humidity
Made with anti-mould coatings (especially for balconies or service yards)
HM Gallery’s starter package includes fabric options that check all the boxes for Singapore’s climate.
With the right approach, window furnishing doesn’t have to break the bank. A starter curtain package gives you privacy, comfort, and style—while keeping your renovation budget on track.
