Meet Daragh Carr — Owner, Firefighter & Paramedic
Independently Owned & Operated — Serving Pinellas County
Thank you for visiting Made in the Shade Palm Harbor! We’re an independently owned and operated local business, proud to bring the full showroom of custom blinds, shutters, shades, and motorized solutions directly to your door across Pinellas County. From Palm Harbor and Dunedin to Safety Harbor, Clearwater, and Tarpon Springs, our mission is simple: help our Gulf Coast neighbors beat the heat, control the light, and love their homes.
Daragh Carr brings over 11 years of dedication and service as a firefighter and paramedic to his role as the proud owner of Made in the Shade Palm Harbor. His passion for serving the community translates seamlessly into helping homeowners and businesses transform their spaces with custom window treatments — the same care, reliability, and attention to detail that defined his years in emergency service.
A family man at heart, Daragh loves spending quality time with his loved ones, attending sporting events, and enjoying the vibrant lifestyle of the Palm Harbor and Safety Harbor areas. When asked why he chose Made in the Shade, Daragh shared that the opportunity to offer a diverse range of premium window coverings, backed by an incredible support network, made it an easy decision.
The Best Showroom Is Your Own Home
The best place to choose the perfect window treatment is in the room where it will live. Our business model is built around a free, no-pressure consultation in the comfort of your home. Your design consultant evaluates your space, discusses your needs, and shows you samples in your own Gulf Coast light — light-filtering and room-darkening fabrics, colors, and textures — so you can make well-informed decisions. From a Dunedin bungalow to a waterfront home in Palm Harbor, we bring the showroom to you, then measure and install for a flawless fit.
