Dress Up Your Windows
with Designes By Susan
by Karen Fetter
Whether you are moving into a new home or redecorating your current home, it
seems everyone faces the dilemma of finding the best window treatments. It can
become an overwhelming task. You know what you want, but are unsure about how to
do it yourself. Worry no longer.
Not only it is possible to have someone help you make the decisions, but you can
also have the window treatment custom made. Look no further than Designes By
Susan, located on Greensburg Road in Apollo, PA. Owner and designer Susan
Emanuele custom creates each piece at her store for every client. There is no
ordering of prefabricated pieces. This is not a department store. Designes By
Susan is a custom design service that knows how to make your home looks its
best.
"We are quality. We are not a catalog. We do everything here," said Susan. "It doesn't
matter the shape of your room or window, we can create a perfect complement.
Your home is an extension of you. Let it speak volumes."
Susan has been sewing since she was 8 years old, giving her over 50 years of
experience in the sewing industry and 18 years experience in window treatments.
She has an eye for design and can help people decorate any room in their house
from custom window treatments, blinds, and shutters to wallpaper and bedding.
The process begins with an in-home design consultation. Susan enjoys the
opportunity to view your home and talk with you to determine the look you want.
There are never two homes that are exactly the same. After all, the decorating
process is your opportunity to make your house a home. According to Susan, a
well-dressed window accents any space and provides an essential finishing touch.
It is just as important as the furniture or flooring. Susan recommends giving it
the time it deserves.
In addition to customized work, Susan also carries a complete line of washable
fabric and ADO smart fabrics that help make the air cleaner and promote
well-being. As seen on Extreme Makeover Home Edition, these ADO fabrics
neutralize odors including cigarette smoke, pet odors, and kitchen cooking odors
to name a few. The material attacks the odor molecule and acts as a filter to
clean surroundings and air space. The material also attacks bacteria and
bacterial metabolism to prevent the breeding of odor causing bacteria on the
surface. This is ideal in public spaces, especially healthcare and lodging
facilities.

Being a designer, Susan keeps up-to-date on material and colors to ensure
that each design piece is current and stylish. Fabrics, people, and trends
change continuously. Susan has always remained open-minded in design work.
"I can look at a picture and sew it. I don't need patterns - I can custom sew,"
said Susan.
Designes By Susan designs, creates, and installs each order. By shopping at a
regular store you take the chance of the materials not fitting appropriately or
matching the natural light of the room. Susan knows how to take all of this into
consideration. In addition, she examines how the room is laid out and the
statement that the customer wants to make. There has not been one order that
Susan could not match with the perfect fabric.
"I'm involved with every customer. There is not one project that leaves here
without my approval," said Susan.
