When Anthony 'Harries' Carroll from Network 10's hit series Bondi Rescue needed window furnishings for his coastal Sydney home, he chose Home Blinds Australia. As a professional surf lifesaver and trusted public figure, Harries needed products that matched his high standards—Australian-made quality, coastal durability, and a seamless ordering experience.​

Working alongside his partner Emily, Harries selected beautiful sheer curtains for their bedroom and roller blinds throughout their home. The project showcased Home Blinds Australia's complete DIY solution—from free fabric samples delivered to their door, through easy online ordering, to straightforward installation that Harries himself completed. The result? An 11 out of 10 transformation that exceeded their expectations.

Why Harries Chose Australian-Made:

As Harries explains: "Being a respected and trusted man out there, the first thing that I noticed with an amazing brand is there's a 5-year warranty. You wouldn't get that from other countries where if you buy offshore. So that's why I always go with Aussie-made, Aussie-owned brands".​

Results

The completed transformation exceeded Harries and Emily's expectations, delivering what Harries described as "an 11 out of 10" result when he was "looking for a 9 and a half out of 10".​

Homeowner Testimonial:
svgrepo_iconcarrier

Home Blinds Australia installed these beautiful blinds here and I was part of the installation too by the way.
So, you know, I didn't create the curtain, but I did put the blinds up and it was quite easy. Most guys have got a cordless drill and it was easy—screwed straight up into the wood. The end result is like if I was looking for a 9 and a half out of 10, I got an 11 out of 10. I'm really proud." — Anthony 'Harries' Carroll, Bondi Rescue​
