ABOUT ME
About Me
Hi, I'm JoAnn. I received my Engineering degree from Western Illinois University in which I have been a Design Engineer for 20 years plus. A few years ago I decided to try my hand at selling custom window treatments and found out it ACTUALLY is something I really enjoy doing. I get to meet new clients, and make new friends along the way.
Being a woman who follows current trends, I relate very well with my clients. If you are overwhelmed, sick of making decisions, or would just like another opinion, I will gladly take the time to help you with your vision. Thank you for choosing to support local businesses!
Why Should you choose Me?
Time
Are you sick of salespeople taking up your precious time? I try my best to listen to my clients needs and focus on what they want, not what a typical salesperson wants to "sell". I have 8 years experience and will give you an estimate in home, or I can also send in an email.
Cost
My Costs are not as high as my competitors because I have no home office, which means, no overhead costs such as utilities, rent, etc. I do my own sales calls, estimates, installs and my own bookkeeping as well.
Everything I need is in my rolling office (my SUV).
Fabrics
I travel with all of my books, so to visually see the colors and fabrics in your home is 100% important. Your lighting and paint colors will make each and every fabric look different, and by picking these out in the comfort of your own home puts you ahead of the game.

Support Your Local Businesses
Compared to chain stores, locally owned businesses recycle a much larger share of their revenue back into the local economy, enriching the whole community. A marketplace of tens of thousands of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long-term. Locally owned businesses create more jobs locally and, in some sectors, provide better wages and benefits than chains do.
Shades
Shades are "soft" window treatments which are made of materials on a continuous roll to cover a large area of a window opening, fitting snugly into your window and stacking neatly at the top. Shades are drawn up and down by cords or rolled up with a spring device. Shades have no slats or vanes and offer a smooth look to your windows, hence why they are called soft window treatments. The fabric and feeling of the shades are modern, sleek, with a warm feeling and have great flow in your home. Roller Shades, Roman Shades, and Cellular Shades are the most popular in homes today.
Blinds
Blinds are a type of window covering with a variety of systems for opening and closing, as well as unlimited aesthetic possibilities. A blind is made with slats of material that adjust by rotating from an open position to closed position by allowing the slats to overlap. The most popular blinds are wood or faux wood blinds in homes today.
