Description
Inpsired by the buzzing bees around Sophie's country garden, this contemporary roller blind is both playful and sophisticated. The popular motif is printed onto a soft natural ground against muted tones. Worth knowing... The width stated in our product specifications is the total width of the blind including mechanisms and brackets. The width of the fabric alone will be a few centimetres less than this. Safety warning Young children can be strangled by loops in pull cords, chains, tapes and inner cords that operate the product. To avoid strangulation and entanglement, keep cords out of the reach of young children - cords may become wrapped around a child's neck Move beds, cots and furniture away from window covering cords Do not tie cords together. Make sure cords do not twist and create a loop More information on child safety can be found on our
Our Stylist Says
I love this bee-inspired roller blind for its charming and subtle pattern, which adds a touch of whimsy without overwhelming a space. It works particularly well in light, airy interiors such as country cottages, eco-friendly schemes, or or a botanical-themed room. For practical styling, pair it with natural textures like linen or reclaimed wood to enhance its organic feel. It’s versatile enough to sit comfortably in kitchens, bedrooms or even bathrooms, providing privacy while letting in plenty of natural light. To make it stand out, consider coordinating with soft pastel accents or floral accessories, keeping the look fresh and inviting.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
