1. INTRO

We’re excited to be doing another podcast where we answer questions from our audience related to interiors or challenges they face in their home. There’s a lot of information at our disposal with shelter magazines, Houzz, Pinterest and Interior Design blogs but sometimes there might just be a little something nagging at you that you can’t seem to find an answer to. Well here we are!

Before we get onto your questions, we wanted to let you know this episode is sponsored by Helser Brothers Hardware. Helser Brothers is led by the dynamic duo of Jay and Mark Helser. Not only are they innovators in the field of drapery hardware, they are highly complimentary business partners. They have a passion for providing high-quality and innovative products along with outstanding service.

Kelly and I really believe that a well-designed room isn’t complete without custom window treatments. We use Helser Brothers drapery hardware in almost every single project. Our favorites are the French pole and metal rods and finials. You can go to the gallery link on their website (helserbrothers.com) to see an array of fabricated treatments with the use of their hardware.

Helser is open for business during Covid and is shipping the majority of their orders within 10 business days. They can customize anything and any order over $100 ships free. You can find them at helserbrothers on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Pinterest. Listen to our interview with Jay Helser on Episode 71.
