THE MAN & WOMAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN …
PUN TOTALLY INTENDED

Meet Julie & James Boswell

Thank you for visiting Made in the Shade Virginia Beach!

I (Julie) am a home décor junkie, committed entrepreneur, and also a direct response copywriter. James is a 20-year veteran to the construction industry who also works with a local garage storage and flooring business here in Virginia Beach.

Above all of that, we’re mother and father to a daughter and son who are probably a little tired of mommy always rearranging the furniture. This décor obsession is a blessing and a curse because I just want to keep doing it all the time … but I only have this one house! I guess that’s why we’re so excited to put our skills and knowledge to work in your home. We live in the Redmill/Pungo area of Virginia Beach and we LOVE this city. Can I get an amen? It’s a great place to raise a family.

Do you already know what you want?

Or do you need help, guidance and education on the solutions available to you?

Whatever the case, we’re excited to be a part of making your home a space you love to live in!

Whether its plantation shutters, custom blinds, shades, curtains, or even outdoor motorized shades for your screened-in porch, we can help with the best quality products you’ll find in the window covering industry. Some of our clients know exactly what they want while some really want to explore all the options and get some advice on how to achieve the look they want. We get giddy just thinking about all that … fun!

When you schedule a time to consult with us we’ll talk, we’ll measure, we’ll show you LOTS of options and you’ll walk away feeling just as excited as we are about your new space. Even if you’ve lived there for years, lighting plays such a key role in a room that with new window coverings, you really might feel like it is a NEW space after we work our magic.
