History

Established in 1987.

Judith Grossman Decorating and Midcoast Blinds & Shades is a spin off of Golden Hand Decorating that was located in Rockport, ME for over 20 years. The business was started by my mother Judy in 1987 out of her home in Tenenants Harbor, Me. She handed down to me, her daughter in 2011. I moved the business to our main street location April of 2014 as Midcoast Blinds & Shades.

We still offer all the services that Golden Hand offered those many years; custom window treatments, blinds, shades, upholstery, slip covers, wall paper, decorating, and color consultations.
