She helped us select just the right window coverings in our previous home and now, again, in our new home. She was able to share many different options to fit our budget and our style. We have also used Rhonda’s expertise in our businesses and have connected her with family members to complete their homes. She has done an outstanding job all around. With Rhonda and Made in the Shade Blinds and More your home is in good hands. **★★★★★ — Erika Hamrick, Nov. 2017** > Rhonda, with Made in the Shade has done a bunch of our window coverings in our home and business! She is knowledgeable, creative, accurate and a joy to work with! Always does an excellent job! I would highly recommend her!!! **★★★★★ — User, Sept. 2015** > The shades we purchased through Ronda have performed very well in the hot west sun, keeping our living area cooler than ever! Even with the multiple over-90 degree days this summer, we felt a significant difference with the Hunter Douglas Duette Architella shades that replaced our older multiple-cell Hunter Douglas shades. They perform as advertised! And the UltraGlide feature is great! One-handed operation and less cording make this feature well worth the upgrade!! > > Rhonda was wonderful to work with and we have told a few friends of her great customer service. **★★★★★ — Diane Iwanicki, Aug. 2014** > Rhonda is very professional and provided a great product for our two homes. We ordered higher end cellular blinds for our bedroom which block the light and heat from our west facing windows. We also ordered budget friendly cellular shades for all the windows on our rental home. Her prices and service were great. I would highly recommend Rhonda for your window treatments! **★★★★ — Nia Patrone, July 2014** > Awesome and knowledgeable company and offer all the assistance you may need on your project. Quick in the service they had provided me. **★★★★★ — Lisa Chadsey, April 2013** > Absolutely pleased with the drapes! Everyone loves them. It really brought the room new life.

A: Hi Leonna - the cornice is custom made from Graber Window Fashions. **Q: Need help for my transom windows** *(in Design Dilemma)* What drapery window treatment can I used for my transomed windows? I like to filter light with the blinds I have in place; however, the transom windows above allows too much light to come into the room. Also, I want this area to have a drapery window treatment. A: Do you need privacy in the space? If not I would suggest a sheer Ripplefold drapery. You could do some stationary panels on the sides to finish the look. If privacy is needed you could used lined draperies. It's a beautiful space! **Q: Requesting Blinds Advice** *(in Other)* I have 2 rambunctious cats and 7 year cheap aluminum blinds in my house. I've lived here 5 years and have always wanted to change them, but kept saying some day. Now that my cats have broken a second set and I have a pillow case over that section of window, some day has come now. I'm not good at making up my mind and this is a long term decision. Wondering if anybody has experience with this. I'm fairly confident I'm going with faux wood. I'm curious though about something. I'm wondering what it would be like to do vertical blinds on my side kitchen window. I need regular horizontal though still on the front two windows - kitchen and cat's room. Would vertical on the side window be bad with horizontal on the others? What about vertical on the MBR (back of house)? I'm attempting to attach photos. Should've found a way to label them. The smallest window which has the whole in them is the side kitchen. MBR photo has long pink curtain. Front Kitchen has café curtain. Cat's room has green and brown curtain. When looking at photos, yes my house is a mess. Also, one other thing. I have French doors that I'll be doing new blinds on as well. A: Faux wood blinds are economical and would hold up to the cats. My cats love to play with the cords so upgrading to cordless with a wand tilt may be a good idea. **Q: What kind of window treatments!?** *(in Design Dilemma)* I am looking for ideas for window treatments that won't interrupt the view or take away from the height of the ceiling. Any ideas? (this is a photo from the prior owner) A: In response to printesa's question...most "decorator's fabrics" work well for roman shades but the most important thing is in the fabrication of the shades. Horizons makes a great roman shade with hidden support rods that keep the folds crisp and neat. Go to www.horizonshades.com to find a dealer near you. **Q: I love the curtains! Can you please tell me where they are from?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: They are custom made. Look for a local window coverings professional and they can help you design something similar! I'd be happy to help you if you're in Northern Colorado! --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-18.*
