Decorative Drapery Rods:
Kirsch, Blome, Robat, Alev, Final 10, Brimar, Graber, Paris, Lafayette , Iron Art.

Custom draperies, curtains and top trearments are usually installed on drapery rods. Some of the more popular types of rods are decorative wood or metal poles, traversing rods, sash rods, café rods, and pivoting rods. These rods are available in a variety of finishes: painted, stained, gilded in gold, silver and other metallic finishes and textures to enhance your decorating style. Artfully crafted, designs can range from formal and elegant to relaxed and casual. Hand-forged iron rods are also available in all types and with decorative coordinating brackets, finials and holdbacks. Artisans continue to do creative and amazing things with iron, shaping and fashioning rods to resemble branches with coordinating twig brackets, grape leaf finials, and knotted loops of vine rings. Available in natural, patinated bronze, and verdigris finishes, these hardware items are works of art and are sure to capture attention.

Finials embellish the ends of drapery rods and often are the only decorative hardware exposed after curtains and draperies are shirred on the rod. Rod finials are available in a variety styles and organic motifs like acorn, pineapple, leaf, scroll, stained glass, or blown glass etc. to accentuate your window dressing. Brackets support drapery rods at each end, and on especially long rods, in the center as well, and are available in all the same styles and finishes as rods. Rosettes embellish brackets by adding panache and style to the face of a bracket. Drapery rings are hooked or sewn onto curtain or drapery headings then placed on a rod allowing fabric panels to move back and forth (open and close) freely on the rod.

Tiebacks or holdbacks are the easiest components to incorporate into any décor. These fixed, decorative accessories are mounted on the wall to secure curtains or drapery panels away from the door or window. They are also used to hang scarf swags to go over blinds or shades to soften up the look.

We not only take the time and effort to complete your drapery or upholstery order, we can suggest accessories that would help to coordinate your rooms. We can make pillows with ruffles, pillows without ruffles, pillows with a knife edge, or pillows with Turkish corners. You name the style, we can do it. We can make so many different types of items to help coordinate your entire home. For example we can make custom placemats, seat cushions, napkins and napkin rings, any size tablecloths - round, rectangle, or oval, bows and rosettes, slip covers, fabric covered wastebaskets, seat cushions, fabric on lamp shades, and even table skirts.

We specialize in coordinating your bedspread with your bedroom drapes by customizing the bedspread. We can make any style of bedspread you desire for the master bedroom, to the kids room and also for the guest bedroom. For example, we can make a quilted bedspread, quilted top double ruffled drop bedspread, bedspread with side panels, comforter with a matching dust ruffle, and many, many other styles.
