\"\"Window furnishings have always been a part of Yasmin Manttan\u2019s life. As the owner of the largest blind and curtain manufacturer in Australia, Australian Curtain Industries, Yasmin\u2019s father taught her all she needed to know.<\/p>\n

She was always involved in every single part of the business and came to love everything about the design, functionality and aesthetics of window furnishings. But more than that, Yasmin\u2019s father taught her the importance of exceptional customer service.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cMy father instilled in me the importance of following through with clients, to always endeavour to deliver on time, on budget and to job specifications. Strong client relationships are paramount to our work. We believe in building client confidence through a personal, hands-on approach,\u201d says Yasmin.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

From this passion, her Sydney-based business The Art of Windows<\/a> was born in 1996, continuing the family tradition of creating and selling both functionally and aesthetically appealing window dressings to both private and commercial clients.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yasmin\u2019s dream has always been to take her business one step further by manufacturing her own unique brand of Australian-made roller blinds and creating her own online product range, but she desperately needed extra funds to make this happen. She couldn\u2019t sit around and wait for the bank to (possibly) grant her a loan, so Yasmin applied through Become and got her funding in 48 hours.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI don’t think I can describe how easy it was. It was just surreal. I didn’t think anything could be this easy,\u201d Yasmin comments.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

So what makes The Art of Windows unique? In Yasmin\u2019s words, \u2018we make 100% washable products, made completely in Australia. We\u2019re putting style back into something that was dated and old, we have a very quick turnaround time and a special focus on quality.\u2019<\/p>\n

A recipe for success. Now, thanks to her funding, Yasmin is on her way to achieving even more success doing what she loves.<\/p>\n
