I can't believe she is still in business. Cheated me, didn't deliver what I paid for and lied to me and BBB. She also told me she was dying and that's why she couldn't complete my $12k order. Find someone else. read more

I worked with candy to replace some curtains in my bathroom and add some custom valances to my main floor. I had been holding out because the process seemed daunting and permanent! Candy came and sat with me looking at fabrics and showing me pictures until I found exactly what I was looking for! Her installers were great and she didn't close it out until I was 100% happy! She is very personable and a joy to work with! I will definitely use her again!!! Thanks Candy! read more

We finally have fallen in love with our family room, after 30 years of struggling to pull together our entire home in Westmont, IL...thanks to Candy! I knew we met the perfect person when Candy walked into the room and said, "This room is laid out all wrong", then immediately began rattling off some easy changes. One in particular stood out: Instead of gathering people to interact in three separate areas of the room, i.e., Bar, T.V., or Card Table, all separated by furniture layout, why not open up the entire room to include EVERYONE?! Brilliant!...and it didn't cost us a single penny for that advice. Yep! Candy was our gal! Considering the many textures in the room (Wisconsin Stone fireplace and wet bar, wood paneling throughout...with the exception of an entire wall of dark cabinets and shelves, ceramic tile and carpeting) her suggestions were music to my ears...especially when she suggested her ideas on the perfect window treatments to pull it all together! However, Candy had her work cut out for her as my husband wasn't as open to change and suspected he was being lead directly toward a major transformation. lol! Remarkably, Candy took his skepticism into consideration, exercising a patience I often times fall short , and easily worked with us both. After replacing our furniture, painting the paneling, cabinets, ceiling, cocktail and end tables, installing vinyl floating tiles, carpeting & widow treatments, our room was totally transformed! Not only did Candy open up the room & create an environment suggesting we "Come on in and stay a while", the new room layout directed our focus toward our beautiful yard that is seen through a set of double glass sliding doors on either side of a wall now housing our oversized TV Screen. In addition to being treated to a welcoming site when entering the room, we are now enjoying the beautiful outdoors while watching TV. This, by the way, was the most challenging for my husband because he was so accustomed to watching sports/programs while facing the fireplace. So happy he came around to our way of thinking! The transformation of our home makes us feel like we're living in our very own Bed & Breakfast and we don't have to leave home to experience its comforts & serenity somewhere else. I now take my coffee or cocktail (depending upon the time of day ) to my sofa, sit back to absorb our beautiful surroundings, and thank the Good Lord for reminding us..."Its a Wonderful Life"! Thank you, Candy, for being straight-forward, creative, resourceful, kind and easy to work with. You've pulled our entire home together and its only taken 30 years! LOL!! It is also our pleasure to now call you "friend"! read more

I have had a wonderful experience with Candy and CCC. She is very knowledgeable and helped us find what would best suite our newly build sun room. We are been happy ever since. We recently had an issue with one of the blinds and she was able to send her installer out to fix it, no questions asked. When it broke again, she took the blind and had it repairs and re installed at no cost to us at all. The personality and kindness of her and her installer is a breath of fresh air. They are so nice and personable it made the whole experience enjoyable. I highly recommend Candy for all your window dressing needs. read more

I knew what I wanted and after doing my own shopping and being unsure of my decision, I discussed my window needs with Candy. She not only understood what I wanted, but ordered them promptly. I appreciate her professionalism and attention to my needs. read more

I couldn't be happier with the drapes Candy designed for my apartment! She took the time to understand my tastes and chose the perfect pattern and colors. It was really fun and collaborative working with Candy! As soon as the drapes arrived she quickly scheduled the installer and we had drapes...voila. Designing drapes for odd shaped windows can be daunting, confusing, and expensive but Candy made it fun and enjoyable. She is also very knowledgable and informative. I got a good value for very high quality window treatments. I would highly recommend Curtain Call Creations! Candy was very easy to work with and I am super happy with the results!!! read more

We have had an absolute horrible experience with Candy. Our $5000.00 drapes have yet to be installed and we ordered them at the end of May and it is October 1. Candy told us we could expect the drapes in 4-6 weeks. She promised to call or email asap, and failed to follow up on multiple occassions. The worst customer service I have ever experienced. She should be ashamed of how she treated us. Cindy C read more

My husband and I were building a new home and Candy was able to help us achieve our vision. She has a great eye for color and design! She made picking out colors, tile and the design for the tile, lighting fixtures and countertops so easy! We would still be trying to pick things out if not for her, she saved us a lot of time! She assisted us with furniture selection for our great room and we have some window treatments being installed this week, which I am sure will be wonderful. I am sure she can assist you with any decorating need you may have! We will continue to use her services as we work to make our house a beautiful home! read more

Last year our house burned down and we were devastated. However the silver lining was how fun it was to rebuild. Candy was part of that process. I just fell in love with her from the first day she met us. I knew instantly that she was the one to help us re-create our home even better than before. Thank you for the professionalism and helping us rebuild. We will definitely recommend Curtain Call Creations!! read more

Do not use Curtain Call Creations for any reason. The owner, Candy, has been a nightmare. On August 2, 2017, we paid a deposit of 75% of the project's cost for new curtains in our living room. We asked if the curtains would be done by Thanksgiving. We were told they would definitely be done by then. She made templates for the curtains. After this, all communications were done by text. (At some point, in the coming months, two side panels were installed.) In late September, she told us that the curtains were almost done, but she had to drop by to make another template. We set a date, which she had to change, but she did eventually come by. In mid-November, she asked for dates for the installation. I gave her a number of dates, but because "there was a death in the family," she didn't immediately get back to us. Picked a date for late November, but got a text saying her installer was "passing a kidney stone." She would try to find a replacement . Ten days later, she asked if December 20th would be good for us. We said ok. On January 8th, I asked if there was any news on curtains as we had not heard from her. She responded she would be home on Friday and that she would get curtains done "ASAP." Two weeks later, I had to point out that we were a couple months past promise date and asked what was going on. She responded that she thought her installers had already taken care of us. She offered to take $500 off the price and have her installer call me directly to set a time for installation. He never called. I reminded her 4 days later and again 17 days after that. On February 12th, she indicated she could install the curtains at the end of the month. We agreed on the 26th. When the installer came out, he pointed out that the remaining curtains he was there to install, did not match the curtains previously done. Different material, different shade of green, yet she sent him out to finish the job. Smacks of fraud wouldn't one think. We told her installer we were done with her and we wanted our money back. We were told that the fabric we picked was no longer available. But if it was available for the side curtains, why not order enough material to complete the project? If that was all the material they had, why order it if it wasn't enough to complete the project and inform us of that at the time? She then (again, all this by text. She would not answer her phone.) offered to dye the curtains, but she sounded not all together. We asked for our money back. Finally, in mid-March, she agreed to pay us back. She said she filled out a PayPal refund form. End of March, we told her to forget PayPal, we wanted a check. She later told us, she would make monthly payments through Zelle to return our money. We said no, didn't want to bother with Zelle and that she couldn't unilaterally decide to pay us in installments after we paid her in one lump sum eight months earlier. She finally said she would put a check in our mailbox on May 2nd. We received the check post-dated to May 9th. We waited to deposit it. Can you see it coming? It bounced. Today, we received notice that we are being charged $12 for her bounced check. We have also, from her, received a certified check in our mailbox. What could go wrong? How is she in business? read more
