Springs Window Fashions — Celebrating 70 Years as a Leader in the Window Treatment Industry
Middleton, WI - April 15, 2009
For 70 years, Springs Window Fashions has been providing beautiful, top-quality window treatments to people around the world.
But like most good things, Springs Window Fashions started small, with a good idea and hard work.
The Springs Window Fashions success story began in John N. Graber's home in Mineral Point, Wisconsin in 1939. According to his daughter Marie, the Venetian blinds he had installed did not look right. They needed to create a balanced effect between many windows, but Graber did not want to move the bracket that held the drapery panels and put more holes in his wall. Instead, Graber invented the “Badger Crane*” — a handcrafted, metal drapery crane which would hold the drapery side panels as they hung over the Venetian blinds. Before long, Graber booked orders for his Badger Crane with department stores all over the Midwest, and Badger Crane Drapery Hardware went into full-scale production.
Eventually, John Graber's company became Springs Window Fashions and expanded to provide a complete selection of blinds, shades and decorative drapery hardware. Yet despite all the changes over 70 years, John Graber's spirit of innovation has never faded. Springs Window Fashions' “Best Experience” philosophy is a commitment to quality window treatments, the very best customer service and no-hassle warranties to give every customer peace of mind. We've also developed “Green by Nature™“ business practices that include high-recycling manufacturing facilities, environmentally friendly material harvesting, energy-efficient window treatments and healthy-home window treatments that are tested for low volatile organic compound emission.
Today, our core brands include Bali®, Graber® and Nanik®. Our Bali brand is designed to help Do-It-Yourselfers find window treatments perfect for their unique homes, matching their décor and filling every practical need. The Graber brand helps customers unlock their inner designer with a complete palette of designer fabrics, dazzling decorative embellishments and control options to satisfy their imagination's every desire. Nanik Wood Blinds provide custom wood blinds with rich textures, deep finishes and modern elements you won't find anywhere else.
