Stand out and settle in: personalize your space

You’ve finally found the home of your dreams, but interior design-wise, something isn’t quite right. You want your space to feel comfortable, inviting, and inspiring, but you don’t quite know how to improve the energy in your home and preserve your personal aesthetic. After all, you deserve rooms that are an extension of your life and style.

Custom window treatments and soft furnishings like curtains, blinds, and cushions are much the same as the accessories that finish an outfit and take it to the next level. But when it comes to your space, you’re unsure where to start. It’s easy for you to feel overwhelmed when it comes to fabric choices, or stifled by the drab generic options that big-box stores offer—and the least expensive options usually mean you sacrifice quality and durability. You’re tired of suffering in a sad, uninspired, or impersonal living space and you’re ready for an upgrade. 

Kootenay Interiors understands that you’re looking for something unique that fits your style. You may already have a vision, and just need the right professional to source, design, and execute from start to finish. Browse our social media channels and check out the online shop, then call or email for a free quote on making your space one-of-a-kind.

I’ve been designing and creating window coverings and soft furnishings for over 30 years. You’ll be delighted with my extensive experience and enthusiasm in choosing styles, colours, and textures to create the perfect look to refine any space—on time, and within budget. I hold an Interior Decoration Diploma, specializing in traditional custom window treatment techniques that refine any room.

My passion for textiles and design, paired with my ability to listen and bring your vision to life, means your bespoke, handmade window treatments and cushions are within reach. Elevate your space and create comfortable, beautiful rooms.

We embarked on a trip to Naples, Italy in 2017. We enrolled in a one week course from one of the most revered, legendary pizzaiolas, Enzo Coccia, to understand the tradition and methods behind preparing the dough and working the forno.  The course was rewarding and eye opening as we learned a century-old hand stretching dough techniques and simple authentic recipes.  In addition to these well-guarded methods, we discovered the beauty of pure, fresh, non-GMO ingredients.  The San Marzano tomato is a cornerstone ingredient that the locals take pride in as it is native only to the rich volcanic soil of the area.  We were inspired by this and felt we needed to take the same care in selecting our ingredients, hence the name, Marzano as an homage to quality and authenticity.
