Customer Testimonials

Marlys, I have to tell you how thrilled we are still... every time we look at our remote controlled Hunter Douglas shades. After more than three months they continue to be extremely functional and so very attractive! I don't recall ever being so happy with a purchase (except for Catherine's excellent furniture and design suggestions).

Thank you for going the extra two miles to make sure we had nothing less than exactly what we wanted. We think you are tops in your field, and if you ever have a potential customer who might be encouraged with a glowing recommendation, please don't hesitate to have them call, text or email me or Debbie!

Our story with Marlys and Adrette Window Coverings starts with Catherine Safadi, interior designer at Parker Furniture.

My husband and I recently moved to Oregon just before the pandemic and discovered our new master bedroom/bathroom blinds were a bit more transparent than we were comfortable with. I reached out to Catherine, whom we were already working with on our room’s redesign, to get something a little more stylish & opaque on our windows.

Enter Marlys and the very talented team at Adrette Window Coverings. We now have curtains, sheers, and Roman blinds that address our desire for style and privacy. The quality is evident in every stitch. Since then, we’ve had bench cushions and pillows made. All these are not only lovely but put together in a way my Mom would have been impressed with. They are beautifully durable. As we go through our new home updating our rooms, I have no doubt we’ll be relying upon Marlys to help us. She’s a delight to work with.

“I have met several of Marlys’ clients and seen how their window covering dreams have come true. What I discovered is that she is much more than a window fashion designer. Marlys is a holistic design guide who transforms entire spaces, and her warmth and attitude often make her a lifelong friend of her clients. This combination of artistry and care is alive and well at Adrette Custom Window Coverings, and it is what their clients are looking for.”

— Dan in North Plains

“My husband and I highly recommend Adrette for custom window- and bed coverings. Marlys has helped us redecorate our master bedroom with new drapes, rods and finials, and also with new bedding, including a quilted bedspread, shams, bolster and bed skirt. It all turned out beautifully. We just finished redoing the window treatments in our dining room, which turned out fantastic! The whole experience with Marlys was professional and a lot of fun!”

— Gerri in West Linn

“I highly recommend Adrette Window Coverings based on my first experience working with them. There was excellent attention to detail throughout the entire process despite the inability to meet face-to-face due to Covid-Related restrictions.

The drape itself is beautiful and will be an appreciated addition to our home for years to come. The gentleman Marlys uses for installation did an excellent job and, again, paid careful attention to every detail. I am a very satisfied customer!”

— Kathryn in Manzanita

“I was struggling to find a company that could replace our front door sheer blinds our dog had been banging his head at trying to look out for the postal lady who always left him a biscuit. When I received Adrette’s ad, I called them and Marlys was immediately responsive to our needs. She came out soon afterwards and we discussed several options to replace the blinds that were clearly not working.

We are so happy with the final result: wood blinds that are easy to raise and lower and can resist a terrier’s mad leaping!

Marlys and her husband will go out of their way to help you achieve your aims with cost and product quality in mind. We do not hesitate to recommend them 100%!”

— Paula in Portland

“Marlys, our drapes looked beautiful in the video you shared via FaceTime, and we can’t wait to see them in person. You were a joy to work with! We can’t tell you how comfortable you made us feel during the entire process.

Continue to stay safe & healthy. Thanks again!”

— Nancy in Portland

“I so appreciated working with Marlys at Adrette. She’s experienced with her products and extremely accurate with her measurements. She took care of all the details. Everything fit perfectly. There was one minor installation concern… and Marlys was right on top of it and made sure it was taken care of to my satisfaction!

In fact, the end result was better than expected!”

— Kathi in Portland

“I am a loyal customer of Adrette Window Coverings. They make the selection process feel effortless, and yet their custom fabric creations are of outstanding quality.”

— Stephanie in Sherwood

“Marlys, my drapes are just perfect. Here’s what I have to say about working in a Covid-19 world. After working with you on the measurements and all the questions and decisions that arose, I can honestly say that I would totally trust you to do another project sight unseen!

I was so surprised to find another person who pays such close attention to detail and can anticipate areas that need special attention!”

— Kathy in Salem

“Working with Marlys was not only easy, it was delightful. She has a keen sense of style, admirable patience for when I was indecisive, and creativity when we needed to hide a complex system of cords around a set of 6 kitchen windows. She is well versed in window treatment and fabric options, and I appreciate that she also has a strong environmental ethic.

Marlys, I love my new window blinds. Thanks for being part of my life.”

— Sheri in Portland

“Marlys & Jens, I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it was to do business with you and your company. It was refreshing to work with someone knowledgeable who has people skills and kept me informed of what was happening.

I know it must be challenging to work under the present (Covid) conditions, but you and your company were superb. Not only were the draperies beautifully made, but Dwayne installed them with perfection.

I will be happy to recommend you. Good luck, stay well and thank you.”

— Leona in Philomath

“What an amazing job Adrette did on our window covering order. Your skills are so incredible. My wife and I really had no clue of what we wanted. Marlys guided us in the right direction. You were professional, very skilled, intuitive and patient. We feel like you listened to our ideas and then went beyond our expectations. Thank you! We are forever grateful.

You have updated our house and given us a vogue look. It is so different, all because of the new window fashions. It is like we are looking at pictures you see in magazines when we walk into these rooms now. You offer way more than window treatments, you offer interior design as well. What an amazing company!”

— David & Connie in Portland

“Marlys, as I told you on the phone, our new dining room window coverings are fantastic. Everything you did exceeds our expectations, and the draperies add so much to the ambiance of the room. Thank you for such a perfect job.”

“Dark wood paneling in our family room made the space gloomy. This problem was solved by adding beautifully made sheer draperies by Adrette. Marlys is an expert in design, fabric & hardware selection as well as installation. From start to finish, the process went smoothly. Our once dark room now has a brighter look and feel. Five stars along with our thanks for excellent product and service!”

— Martha in Portland

“My husband and I enjoyed working with Marlys. She had the most creative ideas and found beautiful fabrics for us. As a result, our draperies are breathtaking.

We will hire Adrette Window Coverings again.”

— Leeza in Silverton

After my husband and I moved into a senior residence, we decided to get custom draperies for our front room and bedroom. We felt draperies would be aesthetically pleasing and prevent so much light from shining into our apartment from neighboring units.

We learned of Adrette Window Coverings from another resident and were glad we called. Marlys listened carefully to what we described and our color palette. We were delighted with the fabrics she helped us select and the conscientious way she ensured our draperies were created and hung correctly. As a result, I’m very happy to recommend Marlys and Adrette Window Coverings to others.
