### Reviews

**★★★★★ — HU-327897490, Sept. 2021**

> We hired Nikki to make Roman Shades for us from some high end drapes I had procured from a Consignment client.  Nikki and her team do an incredible job in remaking these beautiful drapes into Roman Shades for us which now grace many rooms in our new home.  Nikki also pointed out that there would be a few seams and that the pleats from the drapes may never fully be flat in the Roman shades which we really appreciated. The Roman shades were affordable, beautifully made and done in a very timely manner.  I can't recommend NikkiDesigns enough for your interior design needs and we will have more projects for Nikki in the future.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> It was a pleasure working with you - thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review :)

**★★★★★ — Cathryn Carlile, April 2021**

> Nikki has made several cushion covers for me and I have also purchased some of her wonderful in stock goods as well. She has always provided great service and high quality items. I would highly recommend her.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you Cathy for your recommendation!  I really appreciate it :)

**★★★★★ — Michael Robinson, Jan. 2020**

> We hired Nikki for a small project. We supplied the fabric, she supplied the talent and the hardware. She was helpful, easy to work with,  and did excellent work. And very reasonably priced too. I would hire her again.

**★★★★★ — Patricia Tallman, Nov. 2019**

> Excellent service and advice! Great workmanship on our Roman Shades! I highly recommend Nikki Designs for your interior design projects!

**★★★★★ — Deb Pearson, Sept. 2019**

> Nikki made a pair of blackout drapes for my master bedroom. They are absolutely beautiful and exactly what I envisioned. The workmanship is second to none. I am so happy to have found NikkiDesigns for my project!!

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you so much for your kind words Deb - it was a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — Louise Bergman, Aug. 2019**

> Yet another project that I hired Nikki to do.  This time it was for three pillow covers made out of vintage fabric that I had acquired of a most lovely lavender shade.  Perfectly tailored.  Love them.

**★★★★★ — Marilyn and Peter Milne, May 2019**

> This was a bit of a different project for Nikki. She came down to our boat and measured everything to make us a custom bedspread and sheets for a really odd shaped bed in our master cabin. She brought some really nice material samples which we were able to choose from and created a tailored spread that looks fabulous.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you Peter and Marilyn for writing a review - It was a fun project and I am so glad you are happy with the results!  Have fun boating this summer!

**★★★★★ — Cathryn Carlile, April 2019**

> I went to Nikki Designs for some cushion recovering. The finished cushions were perfect! I would recommend folks on Vancouver Island get in touch with Nikki Designs. Fantastic service, wonderful studio and very professional manner.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you Cathryn - I appreciate the recommendation!  Your photos are lovely.

**★★★★★ — Kathini Cameron, Jan. 2019**

> Nikki has just finished creating beautiful linen Roman blinds for our sitting room and dining room in Shawnigan Lake.
> Her customer service is delightful- offering calm advice with an experienced eye.
> The blinds were made and hung on time, her prices were competitive and the blinds are stunning!
> We love Nikki Designs.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you for taking the time to leave a review!  Your home is beautiful and it has been my pleasure to create some linen roman shades and curtains for your living room, dining room, and powder room.  Happy New Year!

**★★★★★ — karenlleonard, Jan. 2019**

> Nikki replaced my covered headboard. She came out with samples to choose from and to measure the headboard. Once fabric was in the headboard inserts were popped off and she covered them. The disruption to us and our bedroom was a few hours. So professional and customer-focused!
>
> Thank you Nikki we love our new look!  Now onto the next project!

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> A pleasure to work with you again Karen!  I am glad you are happy with your upholstered headboard :)

**★★★★★ — HU-510789279, Jan. 2019**

> I really enjoyed working with Nikki and am recommending her to my friends. She arrived as scheduled both for the initial consultation and the final installation, and I was welcomed to her workshop to review more fabrics. At all times she was professional and personable and offered good guidance as to what would work in my home (she made window coverings for my entire—small—home). The work was completed when estimated and at the estimated price. I am happy with the workmanship.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you so much for taking the time to post a review - it was such a pleasure working with you!

**★★★★★ — liz nicki, Aug. 2018**

> I contacted Nikki because I have environmental sensitivities and needed natural/ organic fabric and wool cushions. Nikki made us custom curtains that were very well made and perfect for our son's room. She also made us a cushion and some custom darkening panels, both which were excellent. Her service was prompt and professional and very accommodating to our needs. I highly recommend Nikki for any home decor needs.

**Comment from NikkiDesigns:**

> Thank you Liz - I am so glad I was able to provide what you needed and I look forward to more projects in the future!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Window To Nowhere - Ideas?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Here is your design challenge. I am starting a rehab of a property we intent to flip. The previous owner added to the house (he built about 100 sq feet room and a bathroom ) - he used part of the deck for the addition. The picture shows the leaving room as you walk into the front door. The window to the left faces the outside with a natural light coming in as originally designed. The window to the right, however, is currently leading to the addition (the area in question is a small entry area from the deck and leads to the kitchen). I am trying to decide what to do with this window. It is basically an exterior window that leads to an inside of the house.  It just looks less than perfect right now, does not make too much sense. If I get rid of the window I may loose the symmetry around the fireplace. If I open it up, it may create an asymmetrical living room. Do I just leave it alone? Any ideas?  P.S. I can not get rid of that addition. It is staying Can't add window above the fireplace (chimney). Thanks all!

A: I would lose the window and put a large bookcase or shelving unit there in white, to balance out the room

**Q: Would like Ideas for a headboard.** *(in Design Dilemma)*

This is a 36" high king-size bed. We would like to create a large headboard incorporating the 3-D metal boats. Does anyone have any idea? Sketches would be wonderful if possible!

A: I have instructions for how to make a fabric covered headboard here http://nikkidesigns.ca/2010/06/making-an-upholstered-headboard.html

**Q: What's on your windows?** *(in Design Dilemma)*

How are the windows in your home dressed?

Take a photo and post it in the comments!

A: Scarf valance on my kitchen window, made from organic fabric

**Q: Are the valences a cornice board or a soft valance** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I agree.  With all that light coming through, they must just have a liner behind
