Highly recommend her! The final product is fantastic. **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Woods, Aug. 2019** > Jacki's creations from Golden Scissors are just beautiful. The quality is top-notch and she listens to what her clients want. Several years ago, she completed wood blinds for me in several rooms, a cornice for son's room and a super cute valence for my daughter. In May 2019 she installed a new treatment for my laundry room (faux roman shade) and cordless roman shades for my office. I will keep coming back! **★★★★★ — Genre Interiors, June 2019** > As a designer I have worked with Jacki on a variety of projects over the years. She is my “go to” for clients in need of any type of window treatments. I have found her to be an incredibly knowledgeable professional, and invaluable asset to my team. She can make anything from roman shades or drapery panels to elaborately detailed, custom-designed window treatments. In addition, her pillows, bench cushions and custom bedding are sewn and detailed beautifully. Jacki has an attention to detail that allows me to concentrate on other aspects of the project, because I know my window covering and the installation are in great hands. Jacki is a pleasure to work with and I love the beautiful work she produces for me and my clients! ~Kathleen Retkowski, Genre Interiors **★★★★★ — Desa Design Studio, April 2017** > We've been working with Jacki for any project needs as they relate to window treatments, custom pillows, bench cushions, built-in seating, etc. She is meticulous, thorough and provides an excellent product and service. We look forward to continuing to work with her on future projects to come! **★★★★★ — Cathy Budlong, Feb. 2017** > I hired Jacki to make a cornice and drapes for me last fall. I did not know too much about the different styles of pleats, cornices, or rods when we started, but she talked to me at length about the pros and cons of the different options until I did. She had pictures and samples so that I could make a good decision. The installation was expertly done and the final result was beautiful. She is a perfectionist in her work. I love my new window treatments! **★★★★★ — manfarwest, July 2015** > Jacki delivered as promised! My expectations were exceeded by the quality of finished product and service that she provided. She spent time with me selecting just the right fabric for my windows and provided suggestions as to which style would work best for my room. I never felt rushed nor pressured into making a selection. Her attention to detail was definitely appreciated. > I have used Jacki's services for two rooms and now we're moving on to rooms three and four. > Hands down, she's awesome. **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Woods, Jan. 2015** > I had Jacki at Golden Scissors install wood blinds in three rooms, do a custom cornice for one room and a second custom cornice/valence for another room. All the work is perfect! Every seam on the cornices is flawless and the details she puts into the design with trim, buttons, etc. is just that added special touch that makes your window treatment unique and special. I couldn't be happier with the cornices! > > The wood blinds were perfectly measured and installed and made my husband very happy to not have to install them himself. > > Jacki is very professional and easy to work with. She doesn't try to force her design ideas on you and is all about customer service. Her prices are very fair considering the quality of the work. Everything was done on time and with the highest quality and the final price of the job matched the quote that I was initially given. **★★★★★ — The Decorista, Sept. 2014** > Jacki supplied a roman shade with black out backing and a no-cord option, as this was being hung in a babies' room. She was so thorough in her expalanation of her capabilities as it related to this type of shade, but was also very clear in how her team executed the finished product. The end result was incredible! She did an exquisite job!! Every detail was attended to and then some. The finishing details as far as the cordless capability, as well as how the shade moved up and down was top-notch with tremendous quality and detail in the entire shade. And it looks beautiful in the room - thanks, again Jacki!! **★★★★★ — Gail, Sept. 2014** > What a great experience I had with Golden Scissors! Jacki from Golden Scissors is wonderful to work with. All my questions were answered promptly. > My new master bedroom window treatments are beautiful! As far as I am concerned, Jacki created a master piece for my windows. The Roman Shades are beautiful, the fabric is gorgeous, the trim looks amazing and the monogram is perfect. **★★★★★ — M. Kersch, Oct. 2013** > I hired Golden Scissors to fabricate a custom linen window treatment for my kitchen. The execution was flawless! Although the quality of the workmanship was high, the cost was very reasonable. Jacki takes great pride in her work and I look forward to using her again. **★★★★ — skammes, Oct. 2013** > Jacki designed, fabricated and installed our blinds. We have been very pleased with the service and quality of the products and the after sale service as well. I would highly recommend Golden Scissors to anyone wanting a current look and quality service. > > -Holly and Steve Kammes **★★★★★ — pamconn, Sept. 2013** > Golden Scissors has done many jobs for me over the last few years. I have been very pleased with the quality of the work and how well they stay on schedule. Dealing with them has always been a pleasure. I recommend them to all my friends and will continue to use them for all my decorating needs. ## Selected projects - [Sunrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunrooms-pj-vj~232962) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-pj-vj~736522) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Bathrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bathrooms-pj-vj~237618) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Little Girl's Rooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/little-girl-s-rooms-pj-vj~232970) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Striped Drapery Panels](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/striped-drapery-panels-pj-vj~663849) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Master Bedrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/master-bedrooms-pj-vj~232967) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 15 - [Awards](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/awards-pj-vj~342813) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Award Winning Draperies](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/award-winning-draperies-pj-vj~765873) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Living Rooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/living-rooms-pj-vj~235814) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 16 - [Monogrammed Roman](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/monogrammed-roman-pj-vj~663832) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - Description: A white cotton, flat roman shade with 3 edges having black grosgrain ribbon. 3 initials monogrammed at top of shade. - [Caribean Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/caribean-room-pj-vj~895243) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Kitchen London Valances](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kitchen-london-valances-pj-vj~895230) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Banquette & Bench Seats](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/banquette-and-bench-seats-pj-vj~737130) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 8 - [Recreation Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/recreation-room-pj-vj~316160) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Drawings for Renee](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/drawings-for-renee-pj-vj~304500) - Location: chicago, IL - Photos: 1 - Description: Proposed drawing for Recreation Room - [Sheers](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sheers-pj-vj~733151) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [2 Story Panels](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2-story-panels-pj-vj~807666) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Wine Tasting Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wine-tasting-room-pj-vj~777105) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Guest Bedrooms](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/guest-bedrooms-pj-vj~764064) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Family Room](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/family-room-pj-vj~5926462) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - Description: Faux Roman Valances Room designed by Desa Design Studios [See all 27 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/window-treatments/golden-scissors-pfvwus-pf~755471237) ## Ideabooks - [Lake House](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/126818687/list/lake-house) — 150 ideas - [2 Story Drapes](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/34695189/list/2-story-drapes) — 55 ideas - [Hardware](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/51636759/list/hardware) — 28 ideas - [Wish List](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/163956352/list/wish-list) — 3 ideas - [Holiday](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/18658011/list/holiday) — 4 ideas - [Bays](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/44998670/list/bays) — 32 ideas - [Leading Edges](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/60784908/list/leading-edges) — 27 ideas - [Pillows](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/45041079/list/pillows) — 6 ideas - [Solar Shades](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/66759465/list/solar-shades) — 17 ideas - [Romans](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/25827516/list/romans) — 130 ideas - [Valances](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/19755393/list/valances) — 185 ideas - [Bed Canopies](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/148499979/list/bed-canopies) — 2 ideas - [Doors](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/54886753/list/doors) — 13 ideas - [Cornices](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/19755308/list/cornices) — 69 ideas - [Bowed Windows](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/130176362/list/bowed-windows) — 9 ideas - [Arched windows](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/24914864/list/arched-windows) — 36 ideas - [Striped Drapes](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/24914737/list/striped-drapes) — 4 ideas - [Window Seats](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/48755074/list/window-seats) — 7 ideas - [Bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/57877906/list/bathroom) — 78 ideas - [Staircase](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/104695159/list/staircase) — 4 ideas [See all 42 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/jackilynnd) ## Community Q&A **Q: This house is just gorgeous!
