Your work stands out among the rest. Decorating new home

Not sure if we can afford you, is there a big cost associated with window treatments for example? Had a few estimates for custom drapes but before we order I want to make sure I'm going to love them. If we use you for the treatments is there a big price difference? We have 20 ft windows to start with. Thank you.

Thank you so much for kind words. My prices are quite reasonable. My process goes like this: 1. Determine budget and never go beyond it; 2. Research most cost effective solutions; 3. Make illustrations for you and the workroom with "to scale" specifications; 4. Source fabrics and bring samples to your home for better view in your environment. 5. Analyze your window treatments for energy efficiency and recommend appropriate fabrics and materials to save you money. 5.Supervise workroom for best quality production; 6. Personally supervise installation.

Enclosed are the samples of my presentation to a client and the workroom of the window treatments above. If you have questions, I will be glad to chat with you. My phone 732 977-7686

Love, love the drapes. Do you think your design would work in our small study. I just posted a Request seeking ideas. Happy to have found your site.

We're having difficulty determining style of drapes best suited for the three windows in our study. We want the style to be more transitional than traditional.
Maybe we should hang panels on both sides to frame the windows or maybe try a valence and side panels?? Also thought about hanging the rods above the 2 side windows ... Aligned with top of the arch.The windows are small (28W) and we don't want to totally cover them because we need as much natural light as possible. Any ideas/ suggestions welcome. Thanks

Ok, I just spent an hour thinking about your project. I guess Houzz has this power. I hope this is what you have in mind.

Marina, I love this. The treatment opens and frames the wall beautifully.
