Don’t Let Generic Blinds Compromise Your Comfort (or Your View)

Q

Light Gaps & Privacy Issues

Standard blinds from big box stores rarely fit the oversized or sleek windows common in Redmond and Kirkland. These generic fits leave ugly light gaps that ruin your privacy and allow the cold PNW air to seep in. We ensure a custom, airtight fit for every window in your home.

Q

Monitor Glare in Your Home Office

Working from home in the tech corridor means battling glare on your screens all day. Generic blinds either leave you in the dark or leave a blinding streak on your monitor. Our high-performance solar shades are engineered to cut the glare while preserving your natural light and view.

Q

Tech Frustration & Poor Support

“Smart” blinds from online retailers are a nightmare to install and rarely sync with your home automation. If they fail, you’re stuck with a broken product and no local support. We handle the entire motorization setup and provide local, face-to-face service you can count on.

Now that’s easy, call now!

We recently worked with Made in the Shade in Bellevue, and we couldn’t be happier. Daniel was awesome — super friendly, knowledgeable, patient and really took the time to help us find the right shades within our budget for our bedroom. He made the whole process really easy, from the first consultation to the installation. We felt like we were in great hands the entire time. The quality of the blinds is excellent, and they look amazing — clean, modern, and exactly what we had hoped for. What really stood out was the level of care Daniel brought to the entire process. It’s rare these days to find this kind of top-tier customer service, and we couldn’t be happier! https://mitsbellevue.com/

We had a great experience working with Piper. She came to our house with samples and we were able to order new shades for our entire house within the hour. We got three different shades for different areas. The motorized shades are sleek. Ours work by remote, and we can raise and lower them from both the top and botton. Expensive, but worth the cost. Much less expensive were the same shades with pulley cords, something my husband preferred. Quality materials. Quality service. You definitely get what you pay for at Made in the Shade Follow up - This was our experience 3 years ago, and we LOVE our shades. The motorized one in one room needed charging but the charger was thrown away somehow during another project. No problem, I emailed Piper, and the next day, she delivered a new one, no charge. Doesn't get any better.

We chose to use Made In The Shade- Bellevue for a refresh in our business waiting area. Piper made the selection process a breeze. She came out to our location with lots of samples, took the time to listen to our requirements, and showed us the best options. The project turned out great and her installation folks were quick, thorough, and clean. 5 stars plus for Piper and her crew. We'll definitely use MITS- Bellevue again with our future blind needs!

Huge upgrade for our bedroom, study and bathroom. Love the material and the ability to move them from both the top and bottom depending on time of day, window aspect, etc. The product look and feel and function exceeded our expectations, Piper steered us in the right direction for style and fabric, and all-in the consult and installation probably only took 15-30 min. out of two days.

Modern Window Fashions for the Eastside Aesthetic

Living in Bellevue and Redmond requires a unique approach to light. You need to manage the bright PNW overcast glare while protecting your home from the damp climate. Our collection is curated for the Eastside lifestyle—offering sleek, modern designs and smart technology that handles our weather while preserving your stunning views of the Cascades or Lake Washington.

Shades

The ultimate solution for the Redmond and Bellevue tech professional. Our solar roller shades are engineered to eliminate blinding monitor glare in your home office without sacrificing your natural light. Explore automated honeycomb shades that provide an eco-friendly thermal barrier, keeping your home cozy through the damp Washington winters.

Shutters

Add permanent value to your Medina estate or Kirkland lakefront home. Our premium composite shutters are built to withstand the PNW humidity without warping or peeling. They offer a clean, architectural look that provides exceptional privacy and light control while matching the high-end finishes of your interior design.

Blinds

Achieve a minimalist look with unmatched durability. Our moisture-resistant faux wood blinds are the practical choice for the Pacific Northwest, ensuring your window treatments stay straight and true despite the seasonal humidity. Perfect for outfitting an entire new build in Sammamish, they offer precise light control with a sleek, updated feel.

Outdoor Shades

Extend your patio season on the Eastside. Our motorized exterior screens block the intense summer glare and create a comfortable, sheltered outdoor space in Issaquah or Mercer Island. They provide an excellent windbreak and privacy barrier, allowing you to enjoy your deck or balcony well into the evening.

Drapery

Soften the acoustics of modern open-concept floor plans. Many Eastside homes feature hard surfaces and glass walls that create echoes. Custom drapery panels add necessary warmth and sound dampening, making your living space feel more intimate. Layer them with shades for a sophisticated, energy-efficient window solution.

Decorative Grilles

Make a custom architectural statement. Faux iron grilles are a stunning addition to the high transom windows and modern entryways common in Bellevue architecture. They provide the sophisticated look of custom metalwork without the weight, adding a unique artistic detail to your home’s facade.
