### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Marie Stathes, July 2023**

> Excellent service.  Bonnie’s knowledge of patterns and materials helped us in making the end decision for the cushions in our sunroom. She asked a lot of questions about what we prefer in color and texture.
>
> We are so happy with the new look in our sunroom and the expert sewing and the matching of the pattern.

**★★★★★ — bbstarkle, Feb. 2021**

> Designing Windows by Bonnie could not be a better choice for you and your home!  Bonnie has designed window treatments for three of our homes.  Always professional. Always extremely knowledgeable and able to think outside the box. Bonnies work from afar sets a beautiful overall tone for the rooms but if you get up close and take a closer peak you see her extreme focus on detail and quality. For indeed, as Bonnie says, “Repeats matter!”  She is an excellent listener and then presents possibilities that far exceed your expectations. She is always present for installation with her master installer.  Bonnie is an award winning professional and a joy to work with.

**★★★★★ — Susan Stare, Nov. 2019**

> Bonnie Haugh of Designing Windows has a keen eye for what looks best in my home. She has done the window designs for eight of the windows in my house. She seems to have a sense and an intuition for my personal style and is able to suggest fabrics, colors and trims that greatly enhance the rest of each room’s decor. She is never pushy about introducing unusual designs and being supportive and patient with the evolution of my style. Most recently she showed me a different yet cutting edge design that I absolutely love! It is far from ordinary in the space where it hangs and makes the room look spectacular! A simple design that delivered classy details. I am so grateful for her good taste and guidance. She also has a wonderful and highly skilled installer. It’s the whole, high quality package!! Thanks so much, Bonnie.

**Comment from DESIGNING WINDOWS:**

> Thanks so much for your generous comments, Sue.  Working in your home is a delight and I am a little sad that we have every room finished!  I enjoy completing your projects because you have exquisite taste and are open to suggestions and new concepts!

**★★★★★ — Carol, Dec. 2018**

> Bonnie Haugh of Desiging Windows is an expert in her field. She came prepared on her first visit to our home to find a solution to lighting up our living room and dining room which currently had very heavy & dark drapes. On her second visit we to a solution that lightened up both rooms plus capitalized on emphasis of our magnificent view of Lake Ontario & the bay.  The Luminettes provide a variety of positions from total exposure of the double sliding glass doors and thus the “view” , or partial closure, to full closure to protect from the afternoon sun. We will also be doing some decorative side drape panels to accent the Silhouettes in the dining room. I look forward to continuing work with Bonnie who by nature is very positive in her approach.

**Comment from DESIGNING WINDOWS:**

> Dear Carol,
> Thank you so much for your review.  It was a delight to work with both of you.  Your home does have gorgeous views that shouldn't be hidden!  I appreciated that you were open to my suggestions and could visualize the possibilities even though you were not familiar with either of the Hunter Douglas products we decided upon.  I am very excited to finish "the look" with soft panels in your dining room.  Look forward to working with you in 2019!

**★★★★★ — Tricia Crabbe, May 2017**

> The incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship is often noticed when people see our window treatments crafted by Bonnie. She offers a wide variety of high quality fabrics and design options and her professional attitude makes her very easy to work with. From design and measuring to production and installation, Bonnie's commitment to quality service is unmatched. Every window treatment in our home is made by Bonnie and we wouldn't have it any other way.

**★★★★★ — Sue Wilson, April 2017**

> Bonnie was wonderful to work with.  She is very knowledgeable about her products and willing to go above and beyond to make sure we were happy before, during and after installation.  She put in blinds for us and we are still in awe of how nicely the room turned out.  Thanks again Bonnie for making this as seamless and pleasant as possible!

**Comment from DESIGNING WINDOWS:**

> Thank you, Sue!  Working in your home, especially on your brand new bay windows, was a delight. Thank you for allowing me to be part of your renovation.

**★★★★★ — Ellie Chilbert, April 2016**

> The entire experience of having my drapes made was wonderful. Bonnie met with me and explained everything that she does and showed me many examples of her work.  She made everything easy from start to finish.  The finished product is perfect.  The project ended with her at my house while the drapes were hung.  I would definitely recommend DESIGNING WINDOWS to anyone looking for a perfect window treatment.

**★★★★★ — antonietta\_quinn, April 2016**

> I wish there was a score higher than 5 stars!!! If so, I would give it to Bonnie Haugh and Designing Windows. Bonnie has designed/created window treatments for two areas in my home. I can't say enough about her professionalism, assistance with the design, and the quality of her work. Her attention to detail is impeccable! She is patient as she works with you to find the right fabric for your project, and her opinion is so valuable due to her extensive experience in the field. I recommend her highly and have recommended her to friends who have used her for window treatments in their home. All have been so impressed with Bonnie, and you will be too!!

**Comment from DESIGNING WINDOWS:**

> Dear Antonietta,
> What a pleasure it was to work on your master bedroom.  Both you and Dave have excellent taste and an appreciation for beautiful rooms. Can't wait for the next project!

**★★★★★ — Kim Pugliese, Dec. 2014**

> I cannot say enough about how easy Bonnie made the process of obtaining new window treatments for my home office!  I really had no idea what I wanted to do, since decorating is not my thing; nor do I have a lot of patience. Not only did Bonnie have creative ideas, she understood the need for functionality and practicality. Additionally, because she is clearly a perfectionist, the ordering and installation processes were efficient and painless. She is timely, honest and delivers -- a joy to work with! I would highly recommend Bonnie to others - without hesitation!

**★★★★★ — auntkay, Nov. 2014**

> Working with this company was a pleasure from beginning to end.  Bonnie is professional, personable, honest, efficient, and an artist. I would hire her again in an instant!  And Alex who works with her is a true craftsman.  What a great experience; and that is not something you can often say these days!  Every business should be run like this one.  My draperies and shades are beautiful and I'm so glad I found her.

**★★★★★ — danblanchard, Sept. 2014**

> Bonnie is a true professional that has done work for my wife and I previously. This time, in a new town house, I needed window treatment for all of the windows. The end result was truly great and beautiful. They turned out to be a number of colors and materials that worked well with each of the rooms...Thank Bonnie..

**★★★★★ — pdanger, Jan. 2014**

> Bonnie Haugh is a true professional who exceeded expectations from start to finish. Her knowledge of the Hunter Douglas product made the selection process easy and her working with me to stay within our budget worked well. Bonnie kept me informed with production and delivery updates and was on site for installation. Her attention to detail sets her apart from the rest.
> I would recommend her and will use her as my go to in the future.

**Comment from DESIGNING WINDOWS:**

> Thank you PD, for the opportunity to work in your beautiful new home. It was truly a pleasure and I look forward to our next project!

## Community Q&A

**Q: what color blinds should we choose??** *(in Design Dilemma)*

we are building a new home and are stuck at what color to choose for our blinds. i love the color espresso and picked espresso cabinets for the kitchen and bathrooms, a golden yellow granite with hints of red in the kitchen, crisp khaki paint, and most of furniture is espresso except our couch will be lighter to not be so dark if we decide to go with espresso blinds. would it look ok to have real wood 2 inch espresso blinds? it is a 2 story home in Gilbert Arizona. its 1800 sqauare feet. I intend on lightening everything else up; accent walls, pillows, wall decor etc if we go with the espresso blinds. I like decor from pier 1 imports, pottery barn, Z Gallery etc. If not people say go with off white. So confused and stuck and have to make a decision in 2 weeks. Also need to keep in mind that I love earth tones and warm tones so all of the fixtures will be venetian bronze even door hardware and lighting. which one should we choose? off white wood or espresso wood blinds? Thank you so much for your help!!
below is how the espresso blinds look hanging on their own, and the foor pictures show the the tile color, carpet color, and granite color that i picked.. the fourth picture is just a picture of the model kitchen for an idea. keep in mind the houses are ten feet apart both side to side and in front of each other so we have shade that way not a lot of light coming in i dont think, we can only choose faux or real wood blinds they come with the house

A: Sounds like you are all set. Sorry I missed your last question before you made the decision. Good faux woods are a wonderful choice. Hunter Douglas Everwoods, for example, actually stand up better than real wood in many environments. I am sure you will love your choices!
