My Unique Career Journey

My career journey has been an interesting one. After graduating from Rose Bruford (Greenwich University) with an Honors degree in Technical Theatre Art and Design. I started my professional life as a prop-maker for The Royal Shakespeare Company. As someone with a deep passion for fabric, I made the switch to wardrobe and costumes. Eventually, I spent five years working as a wardrobe mistress and tutu maker for the London Festival Ballet before starting a family and begining a new venture – founding my own curtain-making business, The Curtain Workshop.

After several successful years running The Curtain Workshop, I decided to take a break from curtain-making and went back to production work. I then spent a further 25 years in TV and film production, honing my skills and gaining valuable experience in the industry.

After retiring to Devon, I rediscovered my passion for curtain-making and decided to establish Shula's Drapes in 2018. The company has been a huge success, with my expertise and attention to detail shining through in each and every project I undertake.
