Showroom Makeover
About a month ago we were looking for a simple storage solution for our 700+ fabric books. We were running out of room to hang them on our walls; we kept getting new books and kept having hooks fall off the wall from the weight! The showroom was messy and disorganized, and hanging the books collected dust…
Up to Building Code and Down to Business
We learned something new in this installation! Recent building codes changed the structure of the ceilings in condominiums to prevent them from moving around too much in inclement weather. This is excellent for building stability, but proved a challenge to us in the installation of the side panels. On installation day we discovered that vertical…
Arch Windows are Beautiful but Hard to Treat
Arch windows are stunning to look at, but hard to manage. This job was stationed in Washington, D.C. where all the houses had one beautiful arch window, but no way to cover them in the heat of summer or privacy of night. But here at Drapery Designs, we go the extra mile for the perfect…

Gold Leaves and Fabric for Fall
We have refreshed our window display for fall- the birds are out and the leaves are in! Our window artist, Rachel Cornell, took an abstract approach when designing the display to be a fall of simplified leaves in a variety of metallic and glitter papers bought from the local craft store. The golden palette picks…
Drapery Designs is Going Green!
How much fabric do you throw away every year? Studies show that Americans throw out nearly 11 million tons of fabric every year. Synthetic fabric, often made from a compound identical to plastic bottles, takes decades to decompose. If 99% of textiles can be recycled, don’t throw it out! Here at Drapery Designs, we pledge…
Sheer Roman Shades
Drapery Designs works at whatever stage of development we are needed in a project. This couple came to us with their visions for their very traditional bedroom window. They didn’t need light control because they are both early birds, or privacy because of the massive trees in their backyard. We had designed and fabricated the…
