Hi Graciegirl:

You are TOO funny...I certainly don't need an apology...but thanks for being such a sweet and considerate person to offer it. :-)

I too LOVE window treatments. They make a house a home and express your personality. That's why I love doing them and dealing with different people and different houses. Each home (even the same models) come out different and it's so much fun to be a part of that. I always try to use "things" that are different in my creations...like hanging valances onto mounted dock cleats with grommets & rope, instead of using a boring rod or pole with rings :-) I also try to be economical and that sometimes entails using store bought things, like sheer panels, because in most cases it is cheaper to buy ready-made sheer panels than to make them. I have also been known to use new sheets to make treatments. Sometimes the color and/or patterns are exactly what are needed and the fabric hangs well and it's less expensive than buying fabric. I love what I do and if I can ever help you in any way with ideas or whatever...just give me a call @ (352) 430-0101 or 638-2432...and we'll meet and talk...no charge to you of course!!! :-)
