Don’t Let the Gulf Coast Sun Ruin Your Comfort
(or Spike Your AC Bill)
Summer Heat & Soaring AC Bills
Many homes across South Mississippi feature large, beautiful windows that unfortunately act as magnifying glasses for the blazing afternoon sun. Our insulating cellular shades act as a thermal barrier, trapping the coastal heat at the glass. This instantly cools your rooms and takes the heavy lifting off your HVAC system, helping to lower your Mississippi Power or Coast EPA bill without the need for an expensive window replacement.
Sun Glare & Coastal Privacy
As coastal communities from Gautier to Poplarville continue to grow, neighborhoods are getting cozier. Standard blinds force you to choose between letting in natural light or keeping your privacy. We offer versatile solutions like top-down/bottom-up shades that block the street view and harsh afternoon glare off the water, while still letting you enjoy that beautiful Gulf Coast sunshine.
Warping Big Box Blinds
Cheap, off-the-shelf plastic blinds simply don’t survive South Mississippi’s deep heat and heavy humidity. The slats warp, strings fray, and they quickly look out of place in your beautiful home. We offer durable, moisture-resistant faux wood shutters and premium blinds that add permanent value to your property. They are built to withstand the humid coastal climate and come backed by a lifetime warranty.
Now that’s easy—stay cool and call now!
The Smart Choice for the
Mississippi Gulf Coast
Made in the Shade brings the showroom to you—proudly serving Wiggins, Lucedale, Poplarville, Carriere, Picayune, Gautier, Pascagoula, and surrounding areas—so you get quality products, expert installation, and a perfect fit every time.
ConvenienceModern Automation for a Relaxed Coastal Life
Life on the Coast moves at its own pace, but the Mississippi sun waits for no one. Between work in Pascagoula and weekend trips to the Pearl River, your home should be your sanctuary. Our motorized shades allow you to schedule your home’s defense against the midday heat. Program your shades to drop during the peak UV hours in Picayune to keep your interiors cool, or raise them at sunset to enjoy the coastal breeze—all with a single tap on your smartphone. It’s an affordable luxury that makes managing the South Mississippi heat effortless.
The Gold Standard for South Mississippi Elegance
Nothing captures the timeless charm of a Mississippi home quite like custom plantation shutters. Whether you’re preserving a historic cottage in Poplarville or outfitting a new build in Lucedale, shutters offer a “Coastal Classic” look that never goes out of style. Beyond the curb appeal, our high-quality composite shutters are engineered to withstand the intense Gulf Coast humidity without warping or peeling, providing a permanent layer of insulation that keeps your home comfortable year-round.
Reclaim Your Patio from the Heat and Mosquitoes
Mississippi evenings are meant for the porch, but the heat and “no-see-ums” often have other plans. Our motorized exterior screens transform your deck or patio in Gautier or Wiggins into a private, bug-free outdoor oasis. Block the blinding afternoon glare and lower the temperature of your outdoor living space instantly. Keep the mosquitoes away and the air flowing, so you can actually enjoy your backyard from spring through the humid summer nights.
Window Coverings Engineered for the Mississippi Gulf Coast
Living between the Pearl River and the Sound means dealing with more than just heat—you’re battling intense UV exposure and high humidity that can punish interior finishes. Our collection is curated to protect your home from the blazing August sun while maintaining that iconic Southern charm. From solar-blocking shades that lower your Mississippi Power or Coast EPA bills to humidity-resistant shutters, we help you create a retreat that stays cool and stylish all year long.
SHADES
Your Best Defense Against Solar Heat Gain. Our cellular honeycomb shades are a game-changer for homes in Picayune and Carriere. By trapping a layer of air at the window, they create a powerful thermal barrier that keeps the AC’s cold air in and the Mississippi heat out. For newer coastal builds, consider our sleek solar roller shades—perfect for blocking glare without losing your view of the landscape.
SHUTTERS
Southern Elegance Meets Humidity Resistance. Nothing says “Gulf Coast Living” like the crisp look of plantation shutters. They are the perfect architectural match for the classic homes found in Lucedale and Poplarville. Crafted from premium, moisture-resistant composites, our shutters provide a solid layer of insulation and won’t warp, peel, or fade, even in our densest coastal humidity.
BLINDS
Durable Style That Handles the Humidity. Get the look of real wood without the worry of moisture damage. Our faux wood blinds are specifically engineered for the South Mississippi climate. They won’t absorb moisture or lose their shape in the heat, making them a durable, budget-friendly option for outfitting an entire home in Wiggins or Gautier.
OUTDOOR SHADES
Make Your Porch Livable Again. Don’t let the “no-see-ums” or the biting afternoon sun drive you inside. Our motorized exterior shades transform your patio in Pascagoula into a breezy, bug-free sanctuary. They block up to 95% of UV rays and significantly lower the temperature of your outdoor living space, creating the perfect spot for a weekend boil or a quiet evening outside.
DRAPERY
Coastal Chic with Expert Light Control. Add a layer of soft elegance and “White Glove” luxury to your master suite or dining room. Custom drapes are the perfect finishing touch for high-ceiling Southern homes. Layering drapes over your blinds or shades provides an extra light-blocking barrier and helps dampen outside noise, ensuring your home remains a quiet, cool oasis.
DECORATIVE GRILLES
Instant Character for Coastal Entryways. Enhance the architectural “soul” of your home without a full renovation. Our faux iron grilles are a sophisticated way to add custom detail to transom windows and entry sidelights. They provide the high-end look of wrought iron, adding immediate curb appeal to any property from the bayous to the piney woods.
