Over these 35 plus years, I've made hundreds of drapes, valances, cornice boxes and dust ruffles. I live and breathe interior design, and I love creating a whole new look and using color to affect the mood of a room. I so much enjoy transforming a room from drab to amazing with just a few small details.
Today, my small business in Delaware, is a family business. My grown children and my husband have all been part of my installation crew as well as part of my advertising crew. In addition to drapes and valances, we also sell custom blinds, shades and shutters for residential as well as commercial jobs. From the beginning, my goal was to offer a service that really taps in to my customer’s personality by meeting them in their home and guiding them through samples of fabrics, trims, rods, and ideas for soft treatments on their windows. I also bring a full line of blinds, shades and shutters so that the customer can see them in their home next to their furniture, walls, floors and carpeting. I really want my customers to enter their room and feel like the room embodies exactly who they are. It is so satisfying to give them that.
Theres an old saying, When you love what you do, you never have to work a day in your life. Thats my story!
