I had inherited a set of silk, triple-lined window treatments from a friend who decided to remodel his bedroom after only 16 months. They were like new but too long and not—in the case of one of my windows—wide enough. Isabel re-purposed all to fit new lengths and widths by deconstructing and re-building a set of new draperies for my bedroom. For a second bedroom, I provided her with 18 yards of new silk fabric and she created new draperies with lining. Every piece, when finished, fit perfectly as measured (with her detailed instructions) and the end result is really beautiful and exactly what I'd hoped for. I waited 14 years to put beautiful draperies in my two bedrooms and worried they wouldn't be what I'd imagined. Wrong! Isabel is a pro and knows her stuff. She has never even been to my home and she was able to guide the process along to finish by being able to imagine what I'd explained and described. Her prices were more than fair. She's not high nor low in pricing of her work. She's fair and does beautiful, quality work along the way. I am thrilled with the results! I'm very "particular" (some say "picky") and might have been a little more maintenance than most of her clients and all the work was done over the span of 12 months as I'd been distracted with "life" events which delayed my involvement. Isabel patiently worked with my schedule and seemed to know when and when not to gently prod me along. No PotteryBarn or Crate&Barrel window treatments for my house. No comparison to the quality and attention to detail you get with a local business owner and artisan like Isabel who cares for the product they provide. Next? Some pillows and maybe recovering an old leather sofa with fabric....

Very bad communication.

Do not use this company unless you are very thorough and specific with Ana.

They charged me $150 to come out and measure an area for custom made cushions. They measured, gave me suggestions on pillow shapes and I picked out the sunbrella fabric from the books provided to me (after being told which fabric was on the less expensive spectrum of the books).

They had all the info to give me the quite I requested. 2 days later (after I had to call and ask to give me the information) the quote was $2,300. We were very happy with the quote, so we called Ana to meet with us to finalize the details on style and to pick up the pillows that needed to be re-made. A few days later I got an email from them with a quote at over $6,000! I thought it was a mistake! But, soon was told the $2300 quote was only for labor. I'm not sure how these people stay in business when I paid them $150 to come out and give me a fake quote which only included labor! They refused to refund my $150, refused to give me the measurements they took (which I paid for), and refused to return the pillows they picked up without charging me more $$$$. Don't...

Isabel has done two projects for us to restore the original look and appearance of Grandmother's furniture. Absolutely amazing how she saves every crease, screw, decorative tack to save appearance. Isabel reupholstered a personal original Lazy Boy chair to better than new and it's BEAUTIFUL. Like some reviewers mention, Isabel is like family, she checks on you when she knows your ill or recovering from surgery. Isabel is not only fantastic at what she does but a wonderful person.
