Gotcha Covered of Galleria Uptown Wins Grace Award

Gotcha Covered announced today that Gotcha Covered of Galleria Uptown has received a Grace Award during a recent gala held at the 2024 International Window Coverings Expo (IWCE) in Grapevine, Texas.

The Grace Awards, presented by Rollease Acmeda and Window Fashion VISION magazine, recognizes the industry’s best designs and fabrications in various categories. This one-of-a-kind international competition is the Academy Awards of the window covering industry.

Shona Bascon, owner of Gotcha Covered of Galleria Uptown, received a first-place win in Specialty Treatments, which focuses on windows with arches or odd shapes.

“This window treatment provided several challenges, which makes this win especially gratifying,” Bascon said. “The window had a large arched window and angled ceilings, which made hanging drapery a challenge. We had to craft a cornice, which followed the ceiling lines, covered over half the arch and allowed for fully functioning wall-to-wall drapery. The goal was beauty and function, which we achieved and the client loves.”

Bascon was a runner-up in the 2022 Grace Awards, making this the second year Gotcha Covered of Galleria Uptown has entered and placed. With an emphasis on end-to-end consultations, the location has offered a variety of blinds, draperies, and smart solutions to the greater Houston area since 2019.

“Helping homeowners find the perfect solution to their window treatment challenges is so rewarding,” Bascon said. “Being able to help them bring their design dreams to life isn’t always easy as this nomination showed, but there’s nothing I’d rather be doing.”
