Just a Few Steps Away
Book Your Local Design Visit

See Samples in the Florida Sun
Don’t rely on a showroom. We bring the samples to your home so you can see how fabrics handle the intense Gulf Coast light. We’ll help you choose UV-resistant materials that won’t fade or yellow.
Precision Measuring for Any Window
Whether you have sliding glass doors leading to the lanai or custom arched windows, we take precise measurements to ensure a gap-free fit. This maximizes your AC efficiency and keeps the heat out.
Secure & Storm-Ready Installation
Our local team handles the entire process. We use corrosion-resistant hardware to mount your blinds and shutters securely, ensuring they stay put even when the tropical weather rolls in.
Don’t Let the Florida Sun & Salt Ruin Your Blinds
Rust & Corrosion
The salt air in Palm Harbor is tough on metal. Cheap blinds with metal headrails will rust and seize up within a year. We use rust-proof components and composite materials designed specifically for coastal living.
Sun-Bleached Furniture
The Florida sun is relentless. If your windows aren’t protected, your floors and furniture will fade fast. Our high-performance solar shades block up to 99% of damaging UV rays, acting as “sunglasses” for your home.
The "Oven Effect" on Your Lanai
An enclosed patio is useless if it’s too hot to enjoy. Without proper shading, your Florida room becomes an oven. Our exterior screens cut the heat and glare, reclaiming your outdoor space for morning coffee or evening cocktails.
Now that’s easy, call now!
The Reliable Choice for Coastal Living
Made in the Shade brings the showroom to you—serving Tarpon Springs, Dunedin, and Oldsmar—so you get durable products, expert advice, and a warranty that stands up to the elements.
Motorized Window Shades
Effortless Control for Sunrooms
Florida sunrooms and high-reaching windows let in beautiful light, but they also trap intense heat. Our motorized solar shades give you control without the hassle of cords or ladders. Adjust them with a remote or your smartphone to block the peak afternoon sun, protecting your floors from fading while keeping your AC bill in check.
Shutters
Coastal Style That Won’t Warp
Real wood shutters struggle in the Florida humidity. We install premium composite plantation shutters that are engineered to be 100% moisture-proof. They offer the classic coastal look found in Dunedin cottages and Safety Harbor bungalows but will never peel, crack, or yellow in the salty air.
Exterior Shades
Cooler, Bug-Free Lanais
Your lanai should be a retreat, not a sauna. Our motorized exterior screens block the scorching sun and keep the mosquitoes and no-see-ums out. Built with corrosion-resistant tracks, they turn your patio into a comfortable, breezy living space where you can enjoy the sunset over the Gulf without the glare.

Window Coverings for the Gulf Coast Lifestyle
Living in Pinellas County means embracing the sun while protecting your home from the salt air. Our collection is curated for the Florida climate. From rust-proof shutters that stand up to humidity to solar shades that cut the glare on your waterfront view, we have the perfect solution for your coastal home.
Shades
Protect your interior without losing your view. Our solar screen shades filter out harsh UV rays, preventing your furniture and floors from fading while letting you see the Gulf or the bay. For bedrooms in Palm Harbor, upgrade to blackout roller shades to block the early morning sun and keep your room cool.
Shutters
Get the classic coastal look without the maintenance. Our composite plantation shutters are engineered to be 100% moisture-proof. They won’t warp, crack, or peel in the Florida humidity, making them the perfect choice for bathrooms, kitchens, or any room in your Tarpon Springs home.
Blinds
Enjoy the look of wood without the worry. Our faux wood blinds are resistant to high heat and humidity, ensuring they stay straight and true year after year. They are a durable, budget-friendly option for outfitting your entire home in Safety Harbor, offering excellent light control and privacy.
Outdoor Shades
Turn your lanai into a true living space. Our motorized exterior screens block the heat and the bugs, allowing you to enjoy your patio comfortably. Built with corrosion-resistant tracks, they are designed to withstand the salty air and tropical weather of the Gulf Coast.
Drapery
Add a touch of elegance to your coastal decor. Light, airy sheer drapes add softness and movement to your room, capturing the breeze when the windows are open. For media rooms, choose heavy blackout panels to block the intense midday sun and create a cool, dark theater experience.
Decorative Grilles
Elevate your entryway with a custom touch. Faux iron grilles add architectural interest to transom windows or glass doors without the weight or rust risk of real iron. They are a maintenance-free way to add curb appeal to your Clearwater home.
