Made to Measure Curtains in Libertyville, IL

“I love Urban Environments. It was recommended to me by several different designers. I finally went in to check it out after being hired by a client that had just bought a 3 story house with many bare windows. She was in need of privacy asap. My design style is very earthy, textural, understated and yet elegant. I explained what I was looking for to the owner, Kim. She pulled out a hand full of books that fit the bill exactly. I LOVED THIS. If you are a Chicago designer that is tired of spending hours in the stale air of the Merchandise Mart looking for the perfect fabric, STOP. Go to Kim. She sorted through it all for you and has the best stuff. Kim worked around mine and the client's schedule and handled all the details from measuring to production to install. We had roller shades, roman shades and gorgeous drapery installed throughout the house. We also chose a wallpaper for the bathroom and she handled the measurement, order, delivery and install. When it comes to window treatments there is a lot that could go wrong. Go with an expert! This was a $30,000 project and transformed the look and feel of the entire house the day it was installed. I had another client with a very low budget. We went with woven wooden roman shades. I had her price everything out and then on behalf of my client had Home Depot come to price out something similar. To my surprise the pricing comparison was within a couple hundred dollars and yet Kim offered a better quality and more customized options. My client was also shocked. It was a no brainer, we passed on Home Depot for Urban Remains. It turned out beautifully and again, transformed the whole house. Her pricing is very competitive and of course she works well with designers. She is one! She makes my life easier and I love that. If you are nervous about "custom" window treatments, don't be, she's got this. Also, her staff is great.”

“Deb has been very helpful with both the decision making involved in choosing the right fabrics for many different projects in my homes, and in their creation. Her attention to detail, quality, and craftsmanship are top notch. Deb has made beautiful drapes, bedspreads, coverlets, valances, and pillows to adorn our homes.”

“Alexis designed window treatments for my kitchen and master bedroom. I am so happy with the output! She made the process a breeze and stress-free. I came to her with a few ideas on style and fabrics, and she walked me through what would/wouldn't work in each room. Working with Alexis was the best decision b/c I wouldn't have ended up with the beautiful treatments I have now.”

“The quality of the shutters and blinds are wonderful. Donna was very responsive and organized. She beat all other prices!”

“When I asked Diane Sherman, owner of Window Designs by Diane, to assist with my window treatment needs for a new home I was purchasing, she responded immediately and we set up a consultation within 24 hours. Diane asked many questions I would not have necessarily considered myself - such as my future design plans for each room - to help guide her in making the best recommendations. She also was very respectful of my budgetary requirements and gave me GREAT options that suited all of my needs. Her installer was very professional - prompt, skilled and good foliow-up when he didn't hear back from me after his first voice mail message. I truly felt like Diane cared about me as a customer and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat. I'm also a small business owner and Diane installed custom window treatments for my storefront. I could say all of the same comments for my work with her and her installer for that project as well. Highly recommended!”

“Drapery Connection is the most professional interior design and window covering company in the Chicago area. They designed and installed quality draperies in our home for a great price. Highly Recommended!”

“I had never used Judy or Willow's service before and hired them to provide window treatments for every room in my house - including the garage. Every step of the way was such a positive experience and I felt Judy's assistance with fabric choices and styles to be invaluable. I purchased roman shades, wooden blinds, a valance, draperies, a curtain rod and even some matching throw pillows with coordinating fringe. That required extremely detailed measurements and attention to detail, but they were up to the task and performed flawlessly. The installation was fun - yes, fun - and without any issues. The quality of the products is excellent. I was quite impressed and will only use their (and Judy's) services in the future.”

“I was tired of the blinds that I had in the dining room. They were hard to adjust, they were always bending, and little pieces kept breaking off. In the past I had never spent much money on any of my blinds or draperies for that matter. I met Linda from Custom Sewing Innovations and decided to check out her products. All I say is WOW! What a difference a good set of blinds is! They are beautiful and they match the decor perfectly. Without Linda's expert advice I doubt I would have even considered the style or colors she suggested. It is such a pleasure to have blinds that are beautiful AND functional. I saved $200 on my heating bill and the house was toasty warm. Those nasty drafts that kept things chilly were gone. I was so happy with this one set of blinds I did my entire house with Linda's blinds and draperies. My home is beautiful, warm and entertaining is especially fun when I hear my guests tell me what a beautiful home I have. The installation was a breeze and Linda is always there for me. I highly recommend Linda and Custom Sewing Innovations for anyone's home or office!”

“I hired NorthShore Window treatments to provide pleated shades for my 8 kitchen windows. The owner was very knowledgable about the products he sells. I also liked the fact that there was no pressure to make a purchase immediately. The prices he quoted were great and the shades look amazing in my kitchen! John is both very professional and organized. He even followed up with a phone call to make sure that I was happy with the product! Great customer service!”

“I was referred to Angela of Barrington Draperies by my brother who had some work done on his windows. Our new home had those paper shades from Home Depot for two years and it was time for a change. My husband and I had some ideas of what we wanted done, but needed some guidance. Angela was WONDERFUL! She took our ideas and made them into dreams; it as like she could read our minds. I can't image our home without the shutters, shades, and draperies. She made our guest room, where my in-laws stay when they visit, feel like a luxury hotel room. It truly feels like a home now. Thank you!”
