Our Studio Story
From a passion for beautiful spaces to Cape Cod's trusted source for custom soft furnishings.
A Cape Cod Dream Realized
Mary's love for interior design started in her grandmother's workshop on Cape Cod. Watching skilled hands transform plain fabric into beautiful, functional home pieces — that was magic. She knew someday she'd create that magic herself.
After formal training at a design school in Boston and working for high-end interior design firms, Mary returned to her roots. In 2008, she opened Custom Slipcovers By Mary from a small space in Eastham, determined to bring accessible luxury to Cape Cod homeowners.
What started as a one-woman operation has grown, but the philosophy remains unchanged: every piece deserves the attention and skill of true artisan craft.
What We Believe In
Quality Over Quantity
We take on projects we can be proud of. Every slipcover that leaves our workshop meets our exacting standards. If it's not perfect, it doesn't leave.
Personal Attention
No call centers, no automated systems. When you call, you reach Mary or her small team directly. We know your project because we're the ones working on it.
Local Roots
We're Cape Cod locals serving Cape Cod neighbors. We understand the coastal lifestyle, the salt air considerations, the cottage aesthetics that make this region special.
Fair Value
Premium craftsmanship doesn't have to break the bank. We price our work fairly based on the skill, time, and materials involved. No hidden fees, no surprises.
