She is extremely knowledgeable about the products, very creative and professional. We have worked with her to purchase window coverings over the past several years and have always been satisfied with the end product and her prices are competitive. **★★★★★ — Andra Coburn, Feb. 2019** > We had shopped around online and had already decided on what we needed most with providing privacy & options to still allow light to come through our windows when & where we wanted. Cheryl set right to work to come over, take measurements and share a few other options. 3 wks later, Cheryl's Installer met us to hang the custom made blinds. Wished we'd done it sooner! **Comment from Cheryl Murray:** > Thank you Andra - It was a pleasure to work with you! **★★★★ — Alyssa S, Aug. 2018** > Cheryl was great to work with in selecting Roman shades for our master bedroom. She is knowledgeable about the Hunter Douglas materials and promotions, very professional, and on time. We're really happy with the shades we picked out. They arrived on time and were easy to install. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is that the color/pattern selection is somewhat limited with using just Hunter Douglas. **★★★★★ — Rae Pericharos, April 2018** > I have worked with Cheryl on multiple Hunter Douglas window coverings and also valances that she designed and made herself. She has always more than exceeded my expectations. She has great color ideas and a huge inventory to work from. The convenience of her coming to the home is awesome- very relaxed and not a hard sell. I will continue to work with her on other projects in my home as they come up. She has great installers and is always very prompt in delivery and appointments. I highly recommend her for all of your window covering needs. **Comment from Cheryl Murray:** > Thanks so much Rae! I was just thinking about you yesterday! **★★★★ — User, April 2018** > Purchased Hunter Douglas shade. I am pleased with the product and A Shade Above was very helpful in selecting the shade, features, and color. Having the product brought to my home and completing measurements in one visit was great. **Comment from Cheryl Murray:** > Thank you Joyce. I certainly enjoyed working with you on your project! **★★★★★ — Diana DeAndrea, April 2018** > I have used A Shade Above for many years and have sent many of my friends and family to her also because I know they will be satisfied with her work. She has always worked efficiently, sympathetically and is cautious with your money. I have also had a few minor problems later on & they were handled immediately with great speed and competence. It's a wonderful company to deal with. **★★★★★ — Heather Stratton, April 2018** > Cheryl is fantastic. The best part about her services is that she comes to your home. She brings all of her samples to your door. I have worked with her and three occasions now ordering roman shades, shutters and some more basic shades. She works with fantastic installers who are quick and reapectful as well. **★★★★★ — owensfam3mb, Feb. 2018** > My shutters changed the look of my kitchen & family room so much a few months later I put them in the rest of my downstairs . **★★★★★ — contact6824, Dec. 2015** > Very professional and easy to work with! I absolutely love my window coverings! My house looks complete now! I would highly recommend A Shade Above, I've only used this company over the last 20 years and I love Cheryl! **★★★★★ — nat80227, Jan. 2015** > We worked with Cheryl Murray at A Shade Up two separate times. Our first time was for window coverings for our entire home (which was a 4500 s.f. new build) 8.5 years ago. She did both hardwood blinds as well as valances, pillow cases and a seat cushion for our home. Her cost on the blinds was well below the other bids we got at the time. I did not get bids on the other work as we did each project in different stages as I continued to be pleased with her work so we kept adding to the scope of what we wanted her to do. Her installer was great. Cheryl had great design ideas and she was easy to communicate with. Having been so pleased with her work in 2006, I contacted her again in 2014 to work on valances for the office at our son's school. She was open to us providing our own fabric and again, the project went as planned with no complaints. I would highly recommend A Shade Up for all your window covering needs - and more. **★★★★★ — eolusway, Jan. 2015** > Cheryl Murray was wonderful to work with! She's very knowledgeable and had the best prices of all the companies I called. I would highly recommend her! ## Selected projects - [Hunter Douglas Gallery](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hunter-douglas-gallery-pj-vj~2927438) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - [Cornices](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cornices-pj-vj~2929344) - Location: Aurora, CO - Photos: 2 - [Motorized Shades by Hunter Douglas](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/motorized-shades-by-hunter-douglas-pj-vj~2927068) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Empire Valance with Drapery](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/empire-valance-with-drapery-pj-vj~866365) - Location: Lafayette, CO - Photos: 1 - [Board Mounted Valances](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/board-mounted-valances-pj-vj~866364) - Location: Lafayette, CO - Photos: 1 - [Swags](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swags-pj-vj~866358) - Location: Denver, CO - Photos: 1 - [Sheers and side panels](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sheers-and-side-panels-pj-vj~866340) - Location: Littleton, CO - Photos: 1 - [Our Work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/our-work-pj-vj~855868) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [roman shades, shutters, verticals and cornice](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/roman-shades-shutters-verticals-and-cornice-pj-vj~5634787) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 [See all 9 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/window-treatments/cheryl-murray-pfvwus-pf~1954862933) ## Ideabooks - [drapery](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/146243498/list/drapery) — 13 ideas - [cherylmurray26's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/8047808/list/cherylmurray26-s-ideas) — 12 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/cherylmurray26) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
