From start to finish, it was a wonderful experience working with Dana at the Pinched Pleat! We had a difficult bedroom window that needed protection from morning sun and she did a great job of finding the shade to do the job right. Not only the design, but the color is perfect. Again, it was a great experience.

I love working with Dana so much! From the design, to the fabric, to organizing the installation, everything was smooth sailing. Her eye for fantastic design, knowledgeable recommendations and upbeat personality made this process a breeze. I highly recommend her and have already referred her to many friends! I can’t wait to hire her again for future projects.

We needed custom blinds fit into a odd shaped window. Dana provided us with many options and pricing. She did a great job measuring our space and giving us the look we were wanting! Our new custom blinds will provide us with shade and style for many many years and trends!
