Barnes Custom Window Treatments was founded by James (Barney) and Kathy Barnes in 1960. Because of the popularity and demand in the area they decided to produce the highest of quality drapes from home. They quickly became the go-to for all of the latest window fashion trends. Understanding that there was only so much they could do in their home they knew they had to open up a store front. Barnes Custom Window Treatments became synonymous with Main Street Thomaston, cornering themselves by the Post Office and the general store. They owned and operated that location until 2010, selling draperies, roller shades, and wall paper.

Their son, Jim, took a serious interest in the business and realized there was a market for awnings. It wasn’t long before Barnes Awnings lined the main streets of local businesses in Rockland, Camden, Rockport, and Damariscotta. Jim felt it was important to bring new products in, while still keeping the Barnes’ tradition by selling drapes, shades, and blinds. Located on Rt. 90 in Warren and Wiscasset Road in Boothbay, Barnes Custom Window Treatments remains Mid-coast's destination for all your window treatment needs. The business has grown to have multiple employees and a third generation of the Barnes family while maintaining the highest level of customer service. As Jim says "Not many companies can sell and maintain their products for 3 generations and over sixty years, but this one can".
