Jaipreet Gill, aged 11, from Walsall, worked on a bold and bright pattern which caught the eye of judges from interior blinds company www.blinds-2go.co.uk

The competition asked pupils to submit a design of their ideal bedroom blind. The winner would have their design recreated handmade.

Jaipreet, who attends Park Hall Junior Academy, scooped a prize of £200 for her school.

And the firm has now delivered her very own bespoke blind, decorated with her winning design.

Jaipreet, who lives in Skip Lane, said: “I’m thrilled and it looks brilliant. After competing with more than 200 other pupils from across the country I never thought I would win but it just goes to show that if you don’t have a go, you just never know.”

Park Hall Academy said that the money given to them by blinds-2go.co.uk will go towards more art supplies for the children so that they can continue to bring on future generations of artists.
