There is one well used book you will almost never
see in a Decorators Showroom Yet when they are designing It
will always be within a few feet of them for easy fast
reference
Congratulations you have taken the first step
on your way to becoming an Awesome Decorator. Awesome Decorators are
not born that way, they become great decorators through study, trial
and error and decorating resources they couln't live and work
without.
The one thing
they would'nt think of designing a project without is the definitive
guide to window treatments. It is of utmost importance to be able to
see how a treatment will lay and fall. Will it hang gracefully or be
stiff?
When I
first started to decorate back in 1978 there was no such animal-a
diffinitive Guide. There were a couple of fabric wholesalers who had
tried to create a guide but without much success. You were pretty
much left to yourself.
If you needed
to give the client a drawing or picture of what you were suggesting
and you were drawing challenged like me you were in deep do do. You
should of seen some of those drawings I tried to do!
Today this is
not a problem because Charles Randall put together the most
comprehensive guide to window treatments and accessory's
possible.
As an
installer Charles Randall is the ideal person to do such a
work. The installer is the one who takes the design, as well as the
fabricated products and makes them look like a million
dollars.
The design can
look great on paper, the fabricator can make the treatment perfect
but the installer is the one who puts it all together so that it
shouts WOW!
The
Decorators secret of great visual design is now available to
You To Help You Create Awesome Window
Treatments!
What this
means to you is that in his book The Encyclopedia of Window
Treatments you get the truth about specific window
treatments:
-
If the
treatment is going to have a wrinkle the drawing will show
them
-
If the treatment has a tendency to sag it will show
it sagging
-
If the
drapes will not hang straight it will show them touching the
floor
-
If there
are different options the book will show them
all
That means you
get the truth! Kind of refreshing for a change. You see in
the decorating magazines they sell beauty only, not
functionality. The pictures you see in the magazines are done by
professional installers. They look fantastic with
no thought to as to will it work or can it be
functional.
My point is, I
remember the myriad numbers of times I have been called to a clients
house to do a project and she tells me she wants to decorate her
house just like the model.I can remember also with sadness the
number of times I have had to tell the client that I can recreate
the model in her house if she does'nt mind not having privacy or no
control over the amount of light coming in.
Believe
me decorating magazines and models are there to sell beauty and
to that end they will break every guideline in common sense
decorating. After all they are selling magazines by showing what's
hot and great looking not necessarily what's good for you and
your situation.
Please
understand magazines due this to sell copy and keep their owners in
fancy cars and surroundings. That's the American way.
The
Encyclopedia of Window Fashions has one purpose and that is
to provide you the awesome decorator with a difinitive guide to
window treatments and accessories. The buck stops here. If there is
a tendency of a particular treatment to dip, sag or wrinkle the
encyclopedia will show it.
Suppose you
are interested in adding a fabric or Roman shade to a family room
area. The Encyclopedia of Window Fashions has over fifty
different examples to choose from. Best of all they are all side by
side so you can compare and examine them. There you can mix and
match them. You could take the bow off that one to the right and put
it on the one to the middle center.
When you have it all side by side the
possibilities and imaginings are endless.
That Awesome
Decorator is why this book is never more than a foot or so away when
the decorator is working. Either to show the client a picture of
what they are suggesting or to give direction to the fabricator or
the installer.
Let's face it
"a picture is worth a thousand words" and leaves nothing to be
desired. The last ten years-as this book has become the definitive
guide-I would receive my instructions from decorators like this:
Master Bedroom treatments- Encyclopedia page 87, bottom right.
That left
nothing to chance. We would make the treatments just like the bottom
right picture on page 87 and install them. What happened:
-
The
client knew exactly what she was getting
-
The
drapery workroom knew exactly what to fabricate
-
The
installer knew exactly how to install and dress out
-
The
decorator and client could both relax knowing they were getting
exactly what they wanted
