**★★★★★ — User, Sept. 2018**

> Thia Bartlett has worked on several slipcovering and upholstery projects with me.  I say "with me" because one of the fabrics, in particular, featured a complex print that required discussion and careful matching. Another job required her to figure out how to solve a difficult problem with seat cushions.
> Thia's workmanship is outstanding. In addition, her estimates of cost and when a job will be finished have always been accurate. I recommend her highly.

**★★★★★ — Jan Kirsh Studio, Aug. 2018**

> The Bartlett Studio has a well established reputation for quality design. Her expertise, her great eye for color and pattern and years of experience all play a part in creating comfortable, yet elegant interior spaces. Thia listens to her clients and makes the design process flow.

**★★★★★ — gailfosler, June 2018**

> I looked to give Thia a 6th star but it wasn’t there! Thia has an incredible eye and provides amazing solutions to problem situations.  Our home is really a small cottage with lots of angles, windows, and modest sized rooms that you wouldn’t find in a more conventional house.  We are always looking for subtle matches of color (against off white walls) to interest the eye but not overtire and to provide each room a unique feel.  (Many of the rooms are visible for others so there needs to be a continuity as well.) Thia has worked with us to great effect.  Equally important to me personally, I love fabric and Thia is beyond patient. She allows me to share in the creative process, directing me gently in this direction and that, exercising a gentle hand to help us use our resources wisely but allow for some luxuries in the process. In the end, Thia, my husband, and I all work as a team and Scott and I always feel that the end result is our very own but one we know we could not have begun to achieve without Thia’s talent and counsel.  Also, important to note is that the quality of the workmanship, which either Thia directs or which she undertakes herself, is unparalleled.

**★★★★★ — Mimi Klair, May 2018**

> I worked with Bartlett Design for a few years, and will use their services again. The owner is very talented -- her work is amazing -- she did all of the window treatments in my home- and slipcovers for three sofas. Her turn around time on projects was always reasonable. The quality of her work is impeccable,

**★★★★★ — C M, May 2018**

> Beautiful window treatments!!!!
>
> Professional, a joy to work with in everyday.  Excellence in work quality, delivered on time and mounted perfectly.

**★★★★★ — Irving Phillips, May 2018**

> I recently moved my dental practice to a new 4500 sq ft space. Not only did we find Bartlett Design Studio to be exceptionally receptive to our thoughts, they were perfect in their interpretation, fabrication, and delivery! We receive compliments daily, from our patients, about our color scheme, window treatments, and upholstery. In fact, we may have given out all of the business cards we were given!

**★★★★★ — drtonis, May 2018**

> I have worked with Thia Bartlett exclusively for the past 15 years. Her expertise and experience have always made the design process a pleasure. She is a creative problem-solver who made our house a home, even when the planning and execution was done long-distance. She has completed projects for every room- furniture, windows, upholstery, bedding and floors. I cannot recommend Bartlett Design more highly!

**★★★★★ — Cheryl Albus, April 2018**

> Workmanship is excellent!! The projects were always completed in a timely manner. I have had many projects done including, drapes, pillows, comforters, bed skirts, tablecloths, window seats, slip covers, and have always had chairs recovered.

**★★★★★ — sarabr1, April 2018**

> I had the best experience with Bartlett Studio . They had beautiful fabrics and trimmings to work with . They worked on upholstery , slip overs and pillows .
>                      We worked on living room furniture , dining room chairs and den pieces . Some of the pieces were antiques that we found in our barn . Some where pieces that just needed new material . All the pieces look amazing now . Great attention to detail .

## Community Q&A

**Q: plantation shutters or roller shades** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Hello I am in the process of picking out window treatments for the entire house. I am considering 3.5" plantation shutters from Norman in the bedrooms. I wonder if they will keep the room dark.  I have an eye condition that requires me to be in a dark room on bad days. Can anyone who has them please tell me if they ll do the job. Thank you in advance

A: I agree with Patricia
Block out roller shades and draperies with block out lining is the way to go...

**Q: Your opinion for these Counter stools!!!** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Bought these counter stools online but not sure if they go well with this decor and setting! they look nice by themselves and are comfortable and good for the price though, but are they looking commercial for the home? Please advice as I have not opened the third one yet. Should I keep them or you think something else will look better.
Much appreciate!

A: Yes, they look commercial

**Q: How do I find the right professional for my remodel?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Trying to decide what kind of design help I need for a most-of-house remodel.  I will be renovating the master bedroom and bath, the kitchen (with a possible reconfiguration to an open plan) and probably replacing floors throughout our small house.  My last remodel was emotionally taxing with a contractor who did less than satisfactory work so while I am capable of minor DIY work, I am not confident to take on this project without help.

A: Listen to cancork Floors! Take his advice! I'm in the middle of a renovation that appears to have no end in sight because I did NOT pay attention to my ABCs :-(

**Q: Proper curtain placement above kitchen sink** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Photo is of my temporary tension
mount curtain rod and temporary curtains.
Rod:
I have a new curtain rod
and I'm not sure where to mount it. Should it be wider than the trim, or inside the trim? How High? Like the temporary one or lined up with the top of the trim?
Curtains:
The new curtains can be hemmed
to the any length, but I don't know how long they should be. Should
they touch the windowsill like these are? Or should they hang down to
the bottom of the trim?
It's a small
detail but I'd like to get it right the first time! Thanks for your
help!

A: Personally...I don't like clip rings...they look like a quick fix, a temporary thing or laundry hanging...you can get rings with an "eye" that you put drapery hooks through. But I think here, with an inside mount install, a roman shade would be best

**Q: What kind of window covering can I do here?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I prefer drapery of some kind rather than blinds to keep it formal and decorative. Thanks!

A: Your best bet is to find a custom window covering  fabricator. These actually are not expensive (depending on the fabric you select). I'm happy to help you. I'm on the eastern shore of Maryland. I am an ASID designer and actually create custom window treatments in my shop. My email is bds29@icloud.com if you cannot find someone locally

**Q: Help for front door colour please. Yellow brick, grey blue windows** *(in Design Dilemma)*

A: A bright Limey green
