Rita was prompted with a response after i had posted a request for service on Angies list. I was able to get an appointment with her within a few days and we met at the new house while it was still under construction. I appreciate her flexibility and dedication because she lived 40 minutes away which I did not realize until later. I appreciate that she is a talented interior designer. Originally i was going to put in Shudders but she changed my mind after giving us some good advice and a cheaper solution. I would have installed the wrong thing if it was not for her advise and it would have cost a lot more. She installed loft curtains in the living room that are about 200 inches tall and we were able to design the curtains with two colors and a pattern. Very classy.

Great! I was thrilled to find a single place that could handle all my needs. The work was beautiful and the blinds quickly installed. Two rooms with multiple windows needed only one new blind each. Since all windows were the same size, Rita made the intriguing suggestion of swapping out all the old, still functional blinds in a single room, and putting all the news blinds in the other. This avoided a color clash of new with older blinds which, though useable, had become slightly discolored.

She has done three rooms and made each one express that room's style and theme; contributing to the beauty of our home.

Highly recommend Rita. For me, the best part was Rita figured me out after one session. She understood my taste and was able to cater her recommendations very specifically. I chose her after consulting and meeting multiple window treatment providers and she did not disappoint. I could see Rita had an eye for this kind of work. I appreciate that she has the knowledge and experience to give me everything and anything that exists for window treatments but that she respected my preference when giving me choices. The finished product was exactly what I had envisioned. She is very flexible in working with your schedule. While there were a few hiccups along the way, I found Rita pleasant, timely and patient in working out these kinks.

Rita visited us and helped us choose types and colors for new drapes. We paid the downpayment (50%) and she measured and made the drapery which was delivered as specified. The installers and Rita completed the job (4 windows, including one a large picture window) installing drapery along with sheeres and cornices on the large window and the dining room window. Everything looks great. It was a pleasure to work with Rita.

Rita responded quickly. I wanted 5 pillows but thought I would have her make 1 pillow and see how it went. After meeting her, I could tell she paid careful attention to detail. At that point, I decided to go ahead and have her make all 5...instead of just the 1 test one. I was not disappointed!!! They turned out beautifully!!! I am SO pleased!! Thank you so much Rita! Until my next project...😊

Rita was wonderful! I didn't really know what type of window treatments I wanted and she came prepared with lots of fabric choices and samples of shutters. She recommended options for the different rooms (blackout fabric lining curtains and a sheer for the bedroom windows, beautiful cornice board and curtain in the family room, panel drapes with plantation shutters for the dining room which faces the main road). I also asked her to make pillows to coordinate with the family room curtains. The entire project was installed in the estimated time frame of 10 weeks and the drapes/curtains that she made herself were finished/installed in about 8 weeks.

I am very pleased with Rita. I was slightly concerned by the amount of money spent by other customers. Rita was VERY sensitive to my budget and there was NEVER an attempt to "up sell". I would HIGHLY recommend her and will use her again when it comes to further window treatments. Rita was excellent in responding to communiction--VERY--accomodating concerning schedules.
Description of Work
A series of cornice boxes were built and installed. Rita came to my home, measured, assisted with fabric selection and then returned with the finished product and supervised their installation. I believe the pictures speak for themselves but this is just a sample of the total work that she did.

Absolutely perfect work!! Rita is a fabulous designer and craftsperson. She took all our input, applied her incredible creativity, went to work, and brought back & installed simply gorgeous window treatments that completely finished the rooms. We had previously selected material that would match the décor, so we were a little concerned that she would rather use her own, but within a minute of looking at it, she crafted some real creative ideas on how to use it, and commended us on the choice. In the end, the design were beautiful, constructed well, and installed meticulously. Rita has a passion, she honors her time estimates, and is an pleasure to work with.

First of all... Rita is amazing. I will be using her in the near future. She has an amazing eye for detail and style. She was just full of ideas and gave me VERY useful tips. Rita is very fun and easy to work with and a true professional. You won't be disappointed with her. Unlike other drapery professionals that I have had over she actually listens and is full of feedback. She wants you to love your home not just make money selling you a product.

We had recently just moved into a new house and needed to get curtains for some parts of the house. I gave her a call and we scheduled a date and time for the appointment. She arrived exactly on time, we talked about the style I was looking for and she recommended different kind of curtains, price points, fabric types and cost. She gave us a time frame to expect our curtain installation. After the set number of weeks, she came with her team and installed the curtains. Everything was exactly as promised, perfect workmanship. Some weeks later, we decided that our very long roman shades looked somehow unfinished in our family living room (even though Rita had mentioned that they would look better/finished with drapes during the initial consultation). She came and discussed our options, made the drapes at a discount, installed on time and now everything looks perfect. Rita is simply the best, she truly lives up to her reputation. Customer service like no other!

We could not be more pleased. The drapes are absolutely beautiful and the cornice boards provide balance just as she said they would. Rita is an extremely delightful person! She doesn't just make drapes - she is actually is a designer with an intense passion for her work. There were no hidden fees and the drapes were delivered and installed in the expected time frame. We would recommend her services to anyone in need of quality, handmade drapery and accents. Thank you Rita!!!
Description of Work
Rita showed us fabrics and made suggestions as to the style that would work for our home (living, hearth, and bedroom). She thoroughly explained the various pleat styles and gave options for accent panels and other decor. In addition to the drapes, she also recommended cornice boards in the hearth room and kitchen to provide balance (excellent suggestion).

From start to finish amazing, Rita is awesome to work with, extremely knowledgeable, she understood the look i was going for, We both were on the same track with in minutes. I have large bay windows with a seat, which i wanted a cushion seat & cushions to match with the border. I wanted an elegant look that would not get undated any time soon.. Rita, came through attention to detail was amazing, i was speechless, it what you expect to see in million dollar homes. The blinds were perfect for my bay windows, all matching the border, and the blackout is awesome so nobody can see in. You also dont feel closed in as you would with the heavy blinds. Even the blinds are so elegant with a shimmer in. Her installers were very clean, polite and did not waste time, with Rita standing watching them & assisting to make sure everything was done correctly. They also cleaned up after themselves which is a major ++++++ The time & effort love & care Rita puts in her work is incredible, Rita does one of a kind, designs. Rita is One Of A Kind!!!! Well, i have already booked my next appt........

Rita was very friendly on the phone, and offered to come to my house to look over my patio and figure out the best way to meet my needs. She showed up right on time, and was a delight to talk with. She made numerous suggestions regarding the best way to proceed, and make extensive measurements to be sure everything would fit properly. She gave me several pricing options, and once we settled on a design, she gave me a turnaround time estimate of several weeks. I gave her a deposit of half the total cost, and she delivered the finished curtains back to me on the short side of the time frame she had given me. Rita is a joy to work with and really knows what she's doing. She pays attention to detail and obviously wants the job done right. I would certainly use her again, and would recommend her highly.
Description of Work
Rita sewed heavy duty zippers onto my outdoor curtains. She also trimmed and re-sewed the drapes to fit the space where they would hang, and added pockets on the bottoms for chains (for weight).

Rita had an instinctual grasp of my particular taste in design and certainly was helpful in guiding me in my choice of fabric and window treatment styles. As an experienced seamstress, she gave me excellent advice as it applied to repurposing my previously owned drapery so that it complemented its new venue and saved me great expense. Her team of installers were professional and efficient and Rita was present throughout the installation process to make sure everything was perfect. I am very happy with the work, and I will absolutely call on Rita again whenever I need custom drapery or upholstery.

Rita was a true professional. She was very responsive to our personal needs for time and efficiency. She delivered the product early and even accommodated us by installing on a Sunday! Rita far exceeded our expectations. She delivered exactly what we asked for, and the quality of her work is superb, outstanding, magnificent, first-rate and I could go on and on. She comes prepared with fabric swatches and even offers design possibilities that would best fit your decor. To describe her she is a loving and caring individual. She has the most positive attitude and wants nothing but the best for your needs. She was always bubbly and enthusiastic and each time showed up with a smile that would light up your home. Even during our first meeting she felt like a member of our family. We would not hesitate to use her again and we highly recommend her services. Thank you Rita. You are the BEST! ?

Rita was wonderful. I had a specific design in mind for a reversible comforter and shams. It was to include trim on both sides. She enhanced my idea with some great suggestions. She is one of the few people I have met that could create what I had in my minds eye. She was so fun to work with and you could tell she took great pride in the product she completed. I would never use anyone else. She was very reasonable in price, timely in providing when she promised and delivered with a smile and pride in her work. She was anxious to make sure I was 110% pleased. If you contact her I would be honored to give her a further review.

Rita, first came to our home and was very helpful with helping us figure out what we needed. She took her time to explain the different kinds of window coverings and really helped us out with the color and fabric choices. We were so pleased with her that we hired her that day to do the drapes for us. The install was done yesterday and she was there personally with the installers. She looked after every detail of the installation and went above and beyond to make sure everything was done perfect. The whole team was on time and took great care of our house. They cleaned up everything as they were working. Very few times do you see the owner there watching every detail. The work she did is amazing and the drapes look better then we could have thought. I would highly refer her and her company to my friends and family. GREAT JOB RITA!!!!!!!

I LOVE my custom drapes!! Rita was very patient with me and really took the time to understand my tastes and desires and was not pushy. She came to our home 3 times before we had my master piece planned out (I ordered a set of drapes and changed my mind the next morning, so I called Rita, and she was very understanding and she came back to our home and worked with me until I was 110% happy). Interacting with Rita you can feel her passion for her work. She is truly an amazing artist who helped me create a vision and she executed flawlessly. I will be recommending Rita to all my family and friends.
