The quality is excellent — they fit perfectly, look beautiful, and completely transformed the room. Installation was smooth, and the customer service was friendly, professional, and helpful from start to finish. Great value for the price — highly recommend to anyone looking for stylish, well-made blinds! > Temping Interiors is your only choice. > Tj and Rebecca are the best **★★★★★ — Howard Mariotti, June 2025** > I had what I thought was a simple job, fixing a honeycomb shade. On-line tools did not know how to help, neither did a well-known Worcester-based window treatment store. That store did, however, give me the contact at Tempting interiors, who clearly knew what to do. If you shade needs fixing (re-stringing, etc.) these people know what they're doing! **★★★★★ — HU-416900384, April 2023** > We thank TJ for the great service we received from him and Tempting Interiors > He repaired a 20+ year old Hunter Douglas shade for us to perfection > Plus he personally installed 4 new red Hunter Douglas shades. Beautiful > TJ was prompt, efficient and very pleasant to work with. Thank you TJ > LG **★★★★★ — Francine Shirley, Dec. 2021** > Rebecca and TJ at Tempting interiors are amazing! We initially contacted Tempting Interiors for blinds for our new home but after talking with them we decided to do more! One year later we now have put our stamp on what was a new construction "empty shell." > I loved all of TJ's suggestions for our window treatments and Rebecca came up with wonderful designs for all our rooms. My favorite is the coffered ceiling in our great room. I never imagined it would have such an impact but it did! Rebecca has such a good eye for design! > > One last thing Tempting Interiors has a team of skilled tradesmen that are second to none. This was a big help as we are new to the area and would never had known who to call to get all these things done. With Tempting Interiors you really do get a "Design Team!" > > Thanks Rebecca and TJ!!! > Francine S. **Comment from Tempting Interiors:** > Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We appreciate you taking a chance on our small business! Hope you’re enjoying your new home. **★★★★★ — HU-554166274, Dec. 2021** > I have a small business in Worcester with great windows! Rebecca sent TJ to help select the right clean, professional, and attractive blinds for the salon. Perfect light filtering and TJ’s easy going personality, along with skills and knowledge makes this an easy decision! The blinds look great! > Highly recommended! **Comment from Tempting Interiors:** > Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We always enjoy working with you. **★★★★★ — dakemper1, Dec. 2021** > Rebecca has a strong commitment to clients and their design needs. She was undeterred by the challenges of finding the right color and fabric for my dining room chairs and the large, professional grade cushion replacements for our “go-to” sunroom couch. TJ is a cheerfully professional presence in doing the “heavy lifting” of transport and installation. He also has at his fingertips the names of recommended vendors in related areas, an all-important advantage for renovations. The glass company he recommended did a stellar job customizing a multi-piece glass tabletop so my beautiful vintage mahogany dining room table’s surface can be enjoyed daily. I highly recommend Tempting Interiors for their broad array of design functions and their top-notch customer service. **Comment from Tempting Interiors:** > Thank you so much for your detailed and wonderful review! We appreciate it! **★★★★★ — Lisa Mancuso, Nov. 2021** > TJ and Rebecca are a wonderful couple who share a creative dream, which is to help us!! Rebecca has been so generous with her window treatment and pillow designs. TJ is my "main man" for blinds and shades. I'll never go anywhere else. He has the best ideas for design/privacy/beauty that are cohesive and impressive. I definitely recommend this business. **★★★★★ — Patti Petrella, Dec. 2020** > While I made some updates to my home in the past I hadn’t used an interior designer for 15+ years. After visiting a tile store alone I knew I would need help selecting new kitchen flooring and a backsplash (while keeping the existing granite and appliances). It is important to me to support local business so I started my search with Tempting Interiors. I didn’t have to go any further. She immediately could sense my style even though I wasn’t able to truly articulate it and she kept me in the right direction through the selection process based on my criteria and price points. I received excellent design choices and 100% dedicated service. Rebecca also found the best contractors from painter, tiler, carpentry, upholstering and best of all she coordinated the work & timing so I could focus on my intense day job. She was also always accommodating to meet around my work/commute hours and responded immediately whenever I had a question (or a doubt!). > > My kitchen updates expanded once we started working together and I absolutely love my updated kitchen. > > I hope we get to work together again! **★★★★★ — HU-993079546, Nov. 2020** > Rebecca and Tj helped us with the remodel of our dining room. We are so happy with how it turned out! Their eye for design and attention to detail is impeccable while their ability to bring the homeowner into the design makes for a super easy process. We plan to use Tempting Interiors again as we continue the remodel of our home. Thx Rebecca snd Tj! **★★★★★ — Audrena Lovely, Sept. 2019** > We recently just had custom blinds installed by Tempting Interiors and I am so in love with the way they turned out. Tj and Rebecca are incredibly kind, knowledgeable and were quick and willing to answer the many emails I sent them in order to advise me on the best choice. They were also affordable and install took hardly any time at all. > > The custom blinds and shutters have definitely elevated the look of my kitchen and living room area so it was worth every penny. > > I highly recommend Tempting interiors for any of your design needs. **★★★★★ — Arlene Handschuch, June 2019** > TJ at Tempting Interiors did an amazing job planning, measuring, and installing interior-mounted shutters across a large window area in my home. The window unit was a combination of a centered picture window with two side double hung tilt-in windows. This was a complicated window combo with odd measurements, deep window sills, vinyl vertical spacers between windows, and the need to accommodate the tilt-in feature of the side windows. TJ listened to what I hope to accomplish with the shutter design and then made further suggestions on how to make it all work. I really appreciated his willingness and ability to “think outside the box” to make the final outcome look great aesthetically and to function exactly how I was hoping it would. He was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. > Arlene H. **★★★★★ — Lisa Strom, Feb. 2019** > I would not have considered myself a “interior designer person” I was always a DIY girl or someone who considered hiring a designer a luxury reserved for the wealthy. When I started thinking about redecoration the project overwhelmed me. i’m someone with a decent eye for design but my taste is all over the place and i wanted to stick with one look for a change. Rebecca and TJ took the time to get to know me, my taste, my needs in my home. They made this process EASY and enjoyable. They gave me choices that didn’t overwhelm me and the freedom to add my voice to the process. They are respectful of my crazy schedule and i fully trusted them to be in my home when i wasn’t there. On top of all that they are just very cool people! I can’t be happier with all this and i can’t wait to continue on with them to other projects. ## Selected projects - [French Country Dining Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/french-country-dining-room-pj-vj~6918248) - Location: Westborough, MA - Photos: 6 - [Contemporary Glam Kitchen Remodel](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/contemporary-glam-kitchen-remodel-pj-vj~5592528) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 7 - [Dining Room Redesign](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-redesign-pj-vj~5592653) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 3 - [Hunter Douglas Window Treatments Shades Blinds Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hunter-douglas-window-treatments-shades-blinds-shutters-pj-vj~5882189) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 15 - [Classic Contemporary Living Room With French Charm](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classic-contemporary-living-room-with-french-charm-pj-vj~4601933) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 2 - [Midcentury Multi-Color Media Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/midcentury-multi-color-media-room-pj-vj~5882278) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 5 - [Window Treatments](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/window-treatments-pj-vj~4602158) - Location: Sudbury, MA - Photos: 35 - [Porch Addition With Tropical & Natural Elements](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/porch-addition-with-tropical-and-natural-elements-pj-vj~5592572) - Location: Northborough, MA - Photos: 8 - [Classic Nautical Bedroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classic-nautical-bedroom-pj-vj~2652787) - Location: Gloucester, MA - Photos: 8 - [Bedroom Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bedroom-design-pj-vj~5592698) - Location: Boston, MA - Photos: 3 - [Modern Farmhouse Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-farmhouse-kitchen-pj-vj~4602061) - Location: Northborough, MA - Photos: 5 - [Glam Living Room Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glam-living-room-design-pj-vj~5592605) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 6 - [Bora Bora Living Room Re-Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bora-bora-living-room-re-design-pj-vj~2561696) - Location: Southborough, MA - Photos: 10 - [Farmhouse Design](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/farmhouse-design-pj-vj~5592755) - Location: Northborough, MA - Photos: 17 - [Classic Nautical Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/classic-nautical-bathroom-pj-vj~5592672) - Location: Lincoln, MA - Photos: 4 - [Coastal Safari Living Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/coastal-safari-living-room-pj-vj~2561662) - Location: Duxbury, MA - Photos: 7 - [Dining Room Refresh](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/dining-room-refresh-pj-vj~2561683) - Location: Wayland, MA - Photos: 6 - [Kitchen Reface](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-reface-pj-vj~5882222) - Location: Northborough, MA - Photos: 5 - [Lake House Luxury](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lake-house-luxury-pj-vj~6566820) - Location: Sunapee, New Hampshire - Photos: 22 - Description: THIS LAKE HOUSE IS THE PERFECT BALANCE OF COMFORT AND LUXURY… Our clients decided to sell their family home and move to Lake Sunapee.
