Installation Day at the Design Center





It was Installation Day at the Design Center in Redmond OR

It was a long day of installing draperies, shutters & shades.  The first window treatment has several layers, including under draperies in silky plaid, and a top layer of tapestry weight fabric panels, lined & interlined.  The cartridge pleats have contrasting buttons out of the fabric used to band the front edges of each panel.  Fabrics are from Fabricut & Norbar Fabric companies. The custom iron hardware from Iron Art by Orion compliments the Tuscan theme of the space. (Wine room & dining room).  The faux iron window panel completes the Tuscan theme. "Tableaux" faux iron, looks like iron but is light weight, versatile, & is a recycled "green" product.  It is completely customizable & can be made in many shapes & sizes.

Now offering Hartmann and Forbes Portfolio

I am so excited to let you know about the amazing "green" shades & drapes from Hartmann & Forbes. The portfolio is my newest addition to my product lines. I invite you to see these beautiful hand woven fabrics, made from grasses, bamboo, silks, and other "natural "materials. They can be fabricated into roman shades, roller shades, natural & textile draperies, and panel screens. The options & combinations are totally custom. Made for the discriminating homeowner, you will not find these at big box stores or retailers. They are sold exclusively through interior designers & architects.


One of the nice features available with Hartmann & Forbes roman shades is to have the option of a privacy liner behind any of the semi opaque or sheer type weaves to provide privacy & light control when it is needed. When it is not needed it can be pulled up completely behind the roman shade.

I will be showing a completed Harman & Forbes treatment at the Design Center in Redmond Oregon next month. Please call me to see these samples and iidea book in your home or office

Energy Conservation Through Window Treatments


Fall & winter will soon be bringing colder weather (of course) and so it's time to think about your own personal energy conservation. A whole lot of your energy & money is going down the drain (or out the windows) if you don't have adequate protection against that transfer of heat & cold. Window treatments can help you so much with your energy costs as well as providing beauty & privacy. There are a variety of window treatments available on the market today but to assure the latest in technology, great new colors & styles & a great warranty you should really check out the latest from Hunter Douglas. http://www.hunterdouglas.com/.

"It's a scientific fact that heat is attracted to cold. In winter months, indoor heating moves toward and escapes through windows to the outdoors, while in summertime, the outside heat flows into your home through these same windows. Many Hunter Douglas window fashions boast high R-values—the measure of a product's ability to resist heat flow—helping reduce energy consumption, save on heating and cooling costs, and creating a more comfortable room setting." quote from Hunter Douglas)

If you have decided that now is the time to look into new or better window treatments Hunter Douglas is offering their Fall & Winter REBATES. I invite you to give me a call for an appointment to see the actual samples in your own home or office.

Lots of Changes.
