On behalf of the GTA West Chapter, I would like to welcome Custom Home
Decor as a new Affiliate Member of CDECA.
They are a to-the-trade workroom based in Oakville, and I have had great
experiences working with them on several projects, so I welcome the opportunity
to share information about this valuable resource with our members. Agatha Bak and her team at Custom Home Decor
consistently deliver high quality results and unparalleled customer service. Agatha approaches working with design professionals
as a creative artistic joint venture.
She is involved in all phases of the process, from check measure to
installation, and always strives to make us look good in the eyes of our
clients.
Agatha is a young, modern-minded entrepreneur who keeps up with the
latest trends, but she is also passionate about traditional couture sewing techniques,
and preserving the artistry of those skills.
She sought out and completed training in Europe to hone her skills, and
in turn, trains her staff to meet her exacting standards. Custom Home Decor offers a range of unique,
truly custom options in the work they do, such as:
- Swarovski
crystal accents
- Hand
beading
- Hand
painting on fabrics
- Embroidery
- Silk
screening
- Silk
pleating to create custom trim
While you would expect their premium quality to come at a premium price,
happily that is not the case with Custom Home Decor. I have found their pricing to be quite
reasonable, and they do not have surcharges that a lot of other workrooms have,
such as surcharges for working with silk or velvet, or surcharges for
inspecting fabric for flaws, etc. Their
prices for window treatment fabrication also include supplying the lining (and
interlining when required for the application).
For coordinating toss cushions, they offer good quality feather inserts
at a price point that rivals lower quality products available elsewhere.

services they provide, which now includes:
