Dyane is an "out of the box" interior designer. She listened to my needs and made suggestion, not in a pushy way. I will being calling her again for my next project. Dyane created a beautiful look which included many of my own belongings, which saved me a lot of money. I never thought I could use old stuff in a brand new way. Dyane is a hands on designer. She was there for every step of my redo,answering questions that the tradesmen needed to know. I could have never gone it alone.

Happy Customer L

I recently completed a entire house renovation, remodel, and interior design project. I hired Dyane right from the concept to the completion. Dyane is a hands on designer and she handled the complete job including overseeing the trademen. When I was told "it can't be done" Dyane stepped in and got it done. She was available every step of the way. Dyane thinks "out of the box" and because of her , I have the most fantastic home. I am surrounded by wonderful "things" that I have had for years. Had it not been for Dyane unique style and understanding of me wants, I could not have utilize all I had. It was Dyane' s keen eye that brought it all together.

Tammy Langston

Dyane was the only window treatment specialist that actually took the time to properly analyze the type of window treatments I needed for my living room. She said since I have cats that like to sit on the window seat and I because I have children, the best option were the cordless wood blinds. I was so pleased with the product, the installation and the pricing that I will definitely be calling Dyane at Shadee Lady for the rest of the house.

Dyane was ingenious

...helping me merge an eclectic collection of furniture, rugs, and wall hangings into a cohesive design. She was readily available to me nearly 24 hours a day by email, text, or by appointment. Dyane skillfully directed me into a design concept by acknowledging my specific tastes while pushing the boundaries of my comfort level.

I first met Dyane when she was commissioned by my dad to design and decorate model homes for his various projects. She was hands on and accessible. Our entire family has used Dyane's services since 1996. From decorating the entire home to installing custom quality window treatments , Dyane utilizes her years of experience to access my needs and then recommends the right solution and keeps it within budget! Dyane recently redesigned my daughters tanning salon to rave reviews by her clients!

Happy CT/FL Client

Dear Dyane,

I am so happy with all the tropical decorating for my home in the Florida Keys. The prints and quality of the fabrics are perfect with all the tropical colors and plants. I especially love silhouette blinds perfectly matched top treatments and wall color in the master bedroom.
My children love the new look in their rooms too! The living area is transformed with the coral mini blinds topped with the wood and fabric cornices. The indirect lighting behind the cornices brings the room to life!
Everyone that visits asks, “Who is your decorator?”
I knew after the terrific job you did on my Connecticut home you could decorate long distance.
Thank you for a terrific job.

Happy Customer

With great thought and care the project comes together. And as you see it unfold it exceeds your expectations. My family has worked with Dyane many times and would highly recommend her

 

Another Satisfied Customer

I had the pleasure of working with Dyane of Shadee Lady during a remodel of our kitchen. Dyane was called initially to dress our new dining area with shades. During her first visit to our home she realized almost immediately that we were in the middle of a remodeling nightmare, multiple design errors and an unreliable contractor to name a few. Sensing my frustration and disappointment, Dyane immediately stepped in without any prompting from me to help. Her only objective, along with her friend and artist, Sharon Leichsenring of Leichsenring Studios was to give me a space that I would truly love. With their support and guidance, we worked through all my issues to the completion of the project. Dyane is a true Professional, courteous, caring, reliable and an expert in design. We not only purchased the shades for the dining area , but draperies and shades for our living room. When it was time for the final decorating touches, I called upon Dyane again. Today we are loving and enjoying our home. Thank you Dyane. I would highly recommend Shadee Lady to anyone interested in getting the job done right the first time. You will not be sorry.

Better than those average stores

Shadee Lady provides suggestions on window treatments that work with your life style and decor. Shadee Lady has an almost overwhelming selection of styles and colors, but the reason I shop there for widow treatments is because of the personalized service. They come to the house, make suggestions based on your decor, prices are comparable to retail establishments e.g. Blinds to Go, JC Penny, etc. They measure and install, all included in the price. For a busy career woman this is priceless.

Long Time Customer

I have had the good fortune of working with Dyane for almost twenty five years. She has done my house twice and She is now directing me with my new apartment at the Renaissance just three miles from Aspetuck Condominiums in Huntington, CT. Where I lived for thirty three years. I recently sold it at a very good price in this extremely slow market within two weeks of putting it on the market. I credit Dyane with the sale because it was truly up to date and beautiful with all the innovative touches that made it so desire able. Presently, Dyane is directing the arrangement of my furniture and accessories and the fitting and utilizing the drapes to fitthe new windows and saving me money in the process. She listens to what I like and msassesses what I already own that might work in my apartment and suggests things that update and enhance rather than changing everything. In other words,she makes feel secure in the knowledge that things are just right, tasteful and beautiful. .She also provides me with contacts to workman and artisans that can make the interesting and inspiring suggestions happen. These people are top of the line and insure their work so that everything is as it should be. I have followed her work in ultra modern,contempoary,traditional and vintage homes and am always struck by her versatility. I wholeheartedly recommend her and know you will be happy with the outcome.
