Yes, there is an “Amber” behind the company name. Brad and Amber Unfred are a husband and wife team who specialize in designing window coverings. But these are not just your everyday, run-of-the-mill window coverings. These are beautiful, custom-made works of art that you will never see in another home.

Brad and Amber are customer-oriented. Married for over 11 years with four children, they love working together. Now in their eighth year, Amber stopped doing all of the sewing three years ago as the business grew and expanded. They focus 100% on all aspects of window coverings and nothing else. This includes blinds, motorization, custom draperies and custom soft treatments, which are the more decorative types of treatments.

Shades of Amber designs the treatment and selects everything with the customer. The window treatments are fabricated by skilled professionals in the Colorado Springs area. Each one is highly trained in their craft with a combined experience total of over 80 years. Shades of Amber also works hand-in-hand with about 15 interior designers in Colorado Springs, one in Chicago, and one in Texas, who turn to Shades of Amber for window coverings. There are six designers who are exclusive to them, meaning when they are decorating a home, they work only with Shades of Amber.

In 2005, their treatments were in the Parade of Homes house that won “Best Interior Design”; “Best Overall Home”; and “Best Master Bedroom.”

Focused on transforming rooms with stunning custom window treatments, Brad and Amber have become highly skilled in distinctive service and design techniques that have become a trademark of Shades of Amber.  Their commitment to excellence is achieved through their dedication to detail, integrity, and respect. 

Shades of Amber is defining custom window fashions.
