> Rosemarie is an excellent to the trade workroom.  Her attention to detail is meticulous and she turns out a very high quality product.  Not to mention, she is a pure pleasure to work with!

**★★★★★ — Interior Designer, Jan. 2017**

> Just 1-1/2 years ago I was introduced to Rosemarie Garner as a resource for my Interior Design practice.  After having worked with another window treatment professional that recently retired after 20 years, I thought it would be difficult to secure a replacement that would meet my needs both professionally and creatively.  Honestly, the transition was seamless.  Rosemarie is a pleasure to work with, is extremely professional in Design meetings with my clients and is extremely talented in constructing custom window treatments!  Her attention to detail is exceptional and she is quick to point out issues relating to each job while including resolutions for them as well.
>
> I would highly recommend working with Rosemarie due to her work quality, timelines in production, her general overall product knowledge as well as the fact that she is a lovely person to work with.

She is amazing to work with, has unbelievable ideas, and her finished product is out of this world.  I have been working with her for several years and have made many clients very happy!!!  The best of the best!

**Comment from R Garner Custom Designs, LLC:**

> Thanks for that review, Cory. We have a mutual admiration society going on here!

**★★★★★ — jdfitzie, Jan. 2017**

> Rosemarie is a talented artisan. I hired her to create a large (and structurally complicated) window treatment. She is responsive, timely, and has a great "eye" for color and texture. I really enjoyed working with her, and love the end result!

**Comment from R Garner Custom Designs, LLC:**

> Thank you for the review, Jennifer. I enjoyed the collaboration that we had on that project

**★★★★★ — pjsd1, June 2014**

> Rosemarie is so creative and so easy to work with! Her attention to detail is amazing. Our project consisted of our master bedroom (curtains, bedding and pillows), family room window treatments, mudroom valances, office valance, guest room curtains and guest room roman shades.  Her beautiful work has "warmed up" our home and made it so inviting.  We are so pleased with all she did!

**★★★★★ — meldesigns, March 2014**

> Rosemarie has been my "go to" workroom for drapery work for close to a year now and she's great.  As a designer, I am demanding of superior product and Rosemarie delivers each job in a timely fashion and with great attention to detail.  She's got a great sense of style and an easy manner that inspires confidence. And her finished product is lovely.  Rosemarie is simply a pleasure to work with.

**★★★★★ — rkeach76, March 2014**

> Rosemarie Garner is wonderfully creative and her solutions to design challenges are limitless.  Starting with her fabric suggestions through the finished product, the faux roman shades R. Garner Custom Designs created for my dining room were the perfect choice for the room.  Additionally, the meticulous work in the matching of the fabric pattern on the folds of the shades is unparalleled.  The production standards of R Garner Custom Designs leads me to recommend them unconditionally.

**★★★★★ — Pat Schlossberg Interiors, LLC, March 2014**

> Rosemarie Garner runs an outstanding drapery workroom.  Great care is taken with every project and the workroom produces beautifully executed treatments.  Rosemarie is calm and unflappable - no fabric or application is too much for her to handle.  Every detail is examined so when the treatment is installed, there are no surprises.

**★★★★★ — Linda Principe Interiors LLC, March 2013**

> I have been using Rosemarie as my workroom for about a year.  She is the consummate professional and a joy to work with.  She produces a meticulous product and it is apparent that she takes great pride in her work.  I appreciate her input and the time and thought she devotes to each project to ensure that every detail has been addressed.  My clients comment on the workmanship of their window treatments, and my installers are also very impressed by the work she produces.
>
> In summary, Rosemarie is wonderful all around.

**★★★★★ — Tracey Stephens Design, LLC, Jan. 2013**

> As an interior designer I am very careful about who I recommend and hire to complete work for my clients.  I have worked with Rosemarie on numerous projects and all have exceeded my expectations.  She is creative with design ideas and problem solving, thoughtful, detail oriented, meticulous and all around fun to work with.  R Garner Custom Designs, LLC is the only drapery workroom I work with.

  - Description: Houzz Kitchen of the Week (3/23/18) The clients are enthusiastic cooks and hunters who host frequent dinner parties and eat the game they hunt. They needed an efficiently running kitchen for family meals and entertaining. Problems included: range against the wall, no exhaust fan, and a wall that divided the space into a small kitchen and a large Butler’s Pantry. The incentive for the project was a fire in the kitchen which destroyed the range.

## Community Q&A

**Q: love this design.  what material is the fireplace surround** *(in Photo Questions)*

What material is the fireplace surround

A: Thank you so much!

**Q: Sectional Manufacturer** *(in Photo Questions)*

Hi, would you be able to tell me the manufacturer of this lovely sectional?

A: I do not. So sorry. You would have to ask the designer, Cory Connor Designs

**Q: What is the name of this Ikat drapery panel.  where is it available?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Thanks for your question. This was done about 8 years ago, so I don't remember where I got the fabric. It may be Robert Allen or it may be Greenhouse.

**Q: light fixture from** *(in Photo Questions)*

Would you share light fixture info in boys room please ?

A: So sorry, you would have to ask the designer, Cory Connor. I am her workroom and I made the shades. She designed the whole space.

**Q: Window treatments --Why so expensive?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Hi All,
We need help in finding a cheaper way to do window shades.We like roman shade but it is very expensive.Any idea how to do window shades economically?
Thanks,
Seema

A: There is a lot that goes into the making of a quality window treatment - quality fabric, the correct lining and interlining for the job, correct measurement, correct proportion for the space, and in the case of Roman shades, besides materials, child safety standards, and lift systems, it has GOT to be square and that can be challenging for a DYI-er.

**Q: Love the rug!** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where is the rug from please?

A: You would have to contact the designer: Cory Connor Design
