Made for Pacific Northwest Light
Long gray winters and bright summers call for smart light control. Light-filtering and top-down/bottom-up shades maximize scarce daylight; solar and cellular shades cut summer glare and PSE bills.
Smart Shades, Effortless Control
“Alexa, raise my shades.” Our motorized shades work with all major smart-home devices — schedule them to open with the light and lower in the heat, even on tall, hard-to-reach windows.
Luxury, Local & Family-Owned
Owned by lifelong Eastside residents Piper & Dan. We bring the luxury showroom to your Bellevue, Medina, or Mercer Island home and measure and install it ourselves.

Top Brands. Local Service. The Showroom Comes to You.
Finding the right window covering shouldn’t mean fighting Eastside traffic to a store. Made in the Shade Bellevue brings the full luxury showroom to your living room. Because Pacific Northwest light changes with the season and every home is different, your local design consultant helps you compare fabrics, opacities, and finishes right where they’ll be installed — from a modern glass home in Bellevue to a waterfront on Mercer Island or a wooded lot in Sammamish.
Whether you need light-filtering shades to brighten a gray winter, solar shades to cut summer glare and PSE bills, or smart motorized shades for tall floor-to-ceiling windows, we design each treatment to your exact windows — from top brands like Hunter Douglas, Norman, and Graber. Free, with no obligation.
Custom Window Fashions for Every Style
Choosing the best window treatment is essential in showcasing your unique style. Our solutions for all types of windows will blend seamlessly with your overall interior design. Window treatments improve the look of your space and provide privacy, control light, and save on energy efficiency. We carefully craft each custom treatment to your specific measurements and desired decorative and functional features, including motorization options.
Shades
Maximize the Light, Control the Heat
Pacific Northwest light swings from gray winters to bright summers, and the right shade handles both. Light-filtering and top-down/bottom-up cellular shades brighten dark winter rooms while keeping privacy; solar shades cut summer glare and UV and help lower your PSE bill. Add blackout roller shades for bedrooms and media rooms. Cordless and smart-motorized options for every room.
Shutters
Timeless Luxury & Energy Efficiency
Installed like fine furniture, plantation shutters become a permanent, luxury fixture of the home — and their solid louvers add real insulation that cuts your PSE bills in the summer heat and holds warmth in the damp winter. Choose the warmth of wood or the brightness of composite. A statement piece for Bellevue’s finest homes.
Blinds
Custom-Fit for Every Eastside Window
From rich wood to durable faux wood, our custom blinds deliver precise light and privacy control and a tailored fit that off-the-shelf sizes can’t match — including the large and specialty windows common in Eastside homes. Faux wood resists moisture in kitchens and baths; vertical blinds handle wide patio and deck sliders.
Outdoor Shades
Enjoy Your View & Your Deck, Year-Round
On the Eastside, outdoor living is as important as the interior. Exterior patio shades mitigate harmful UV, regulate temperature, cut glare on your patio and view windows, and even keep the insects out — so you can enjoy the Cascade and lake views without the summer glare. Easy to clean and built for the PNW.
Drapery
Personal Style, Softness & Warmth
Custom drapery brings your personal touch — softness, texture, and an extra insulating layer that adds warmth on a damp Pacific Northwest evening. Layer drapes over shades for a finished, designer look on both small windows and large view windows. Tailored to your exact windows from many textures, patterns, and colors, with motorized tracks available.
Decorative Grilles
One of the Most Custom Products You’ll Ever See
Impress your guests with decorative faux-iron grilles — one of the most custom, high-design products we offer. They enhance windows, walls, ceilings, and outdoor spaces with a distinct, lasting-impression look, delivering the timeless character of wrought iron without the weight. A signature statement for a luxury Eastside home.

Why the Eastside Chooses Made in the Shade
We’re local, we’re family, and we’ve called the Eastside home for decades. Owner Piper Strand is a 40-year resident of the Issaquah-Sammamish area, and her brother Dan Osincup — our top design consultant — has 40+ years here and a real gift for whole-home shade design. We know Pacific Northwest homes and light: gray winters that need brightening, hot summers that need glare control, and modern floor-to-ceiling windows that deserve better than off-the-shelf. Every recommendation is guided by training, experience, and one goal — that you’re comfortable and fully informed about every choice.

Frequently Asked Questions About Window Treatments in Bellevue
How much do custom blinds, shades, and shutters cost in Bellevue?
Custom window treatments typically range from under $100 to over $1,000 per window. The price depends on the product, window size, material, operating system, motorization, and number of windows, so an exact quote requires measuring the actual windows.
That’s why Made in the Shade Bellevue includes a free in-home consultation – we measure every window, show samples in your home’s real Pacific Northwest light, and tailor the quote to your actual project. Financing is available.
What window treatments are best for Bellevue's cloudy winters and hot summers?
For Bellevue’s gray, low-light winters, light-filtering shades and top-down/bottom-up cellular shades maximize your scarce natural daylight while keeping privacy. For the increasingly hot, sunny summers, solar shades and insulating cellular shades block heat and glare and help cut your PSE bills.
Many Eastside homeowners combine light-filtering shades in living areas with room-darkening or motorized options in bedrooms and media rooms.
Are you locally owned?
Yes. Made in the Shade Bellevue is locally, family-owned and operated by Piper Strand, a 40-year resident of the Issaquah-Sammamish area, alongside her brother Dan Osincup, our top design consultant. You work directly with your Eastside neighbors, not a call center.
They serve the Greater Eastside – Bellevue, Medina, Mercer Island, Kirkland, Redmond, Issaquah, Sammamish, and Preston.
Do your smart shades work with Alexa and Google Home?
Yes. Our motorized shades work with all major smart-home devices, including Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. Just say “Alexa, raise my shades,” or schedule them to open with the morning light and lower during summer heat – perfect for the tech-forward Eastside home.
They’re ideal for the tall, hard-to-reach, floor-to-ceiling windows common in Bellevue homes.
