Welcome to my blog. I document my adventures in travel, style, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!
For nearly two decades, we’ve designed, fabricated, and installed custom draperies and window treatments across the U.S. and Mexico—from San Francisco townhouses to haciendas in the highlands of Jalisco. It’s been a beautiful journey of layered linens, fabric samples, and sunlit windows.
But over the past 2 to 5 years, something shifted.
Our clients—designers, expats, boutique property owners—began asking for more than window treatments. They needed help sourcing entire homes of furniture in Mexico. They wanted custom collections. They asked for guidance, introductions, and oversight. And we quietly stepped up to meet those needs.
It’s now clear: this is where our energy belongs. This is what our clients need the most.
So we’re officially wrapping up our drapery offerings (after completing currently scheduled projects) to focus entirely on the services that have become our true calling.
If you’re an interior designer, creative entrepreneur, or homeowner in Mexico or the U.S., this next chapter was built with you in mind.
Over the last five years, we’ve helped interior designers turn sketches into finished furniture—produced right here in Guadalajara. Our consulting services are rooted in experience, cultural fluency, and real relationships with the region’s top workrooms and workshops.
We help designers:
Navigate material sourcing and pricing
Translate design vision into durable, buildable products
Build trusted vendor relationships
Oversee quality control, sampling, and logistics
Develop small collections or full-scale custom lines
This isn’t a new offering—it’s something we’ve been doing successfully behind the scenes for years. Now, we’re opening the doors a little wider.
We’ve spent the last four years guiding expats, designers, and boutique business owners through the maze of sourcing in Guadalajara, Tonalá, and Tlaquepaque. These aren't touristy shopping days—they’re curated, boots-on-the-ground experiences that connect you directly with Mexico’s finest artisans, furniture makers, and hidden-gem showrooms.
Our private sourcing tours are perfect for:
Interior designers seeking quality, made-to-order pieces
Expats furnishing full homes or vacation rentals
Shop owners and stylists looking for one-of-a-kind inventory
Every tour is tailored. Every stop is intentional. And every client leaves feeling inspired and empowered.
This marks our third formal trend report—and they just keep getting better. We distill what’s coming before it hits Pinterest. These reports are built for designers, stylists, and business owners who want to stay creatively ahead of the curve.
Our Fall 2025 Design Forecast includes:
7 curated trend stories with cultural and aesthetic context
Moodboards and Pinterest links for each trend
Actionable guidance for sourcing, product development, and styling
Immediate PDF download with lifetime access
The last report sold fast—and this one’s even more layered, timely, and tactile.
Because it’s already been happening.
These aren’t new services—we’ve just been offering them quietly, selectively, and almost always by referral. But now, we’re ready to give them the space they deserve.
This shift is about clarity. About aligning with what actually works—for us, for our clients, and for the way design is evolving across borders.
We’ll always be grateful for the drapery years—but we’re even more excited for what’s coming next.
We also invite you to join our growing online community:
