The Decorating Store at Terminal Mill Ends

The Decorating Store at Terminal Mill Ends We provide Window Treatments, Reupholstery and Refinishing, Slipcovers and Cushions, Blinds, Shades, Ours is a true love story about family and fabric.

In 1949, Len (known to all as "Alex") and Greta Alexander began selling the "ends," or remnants, of large bolts of home textile fabrics and dress goods procured through their brother-in-law via a shipping terminal in Paterson, NJ. They opened their own business, Terminal Mill Ends, in the "country" - then "faraway" Union. Their daughter Nina joined them in 1978 and established a focus on interior

design. Today, we are the Decorating Store at Terminal Mill Ends - a nod to the past in our name, with eyes solidly on the future. Under the leadership of Nina's husband, Ernie Spinelli, the location moved to Mountainside with a fresh look and expanded offerings in home décor - furniture, carpet, rugs and accessories. But the legacy of the Alexander family remains - the warmth and helpful atmosphere created all those years ago. Family and fabric - still together after all these years!

Offering various levels of opacity, roller shades are a great option for every room in your house. And as an added bonus--they're super fun to pull down 😂

Swipe all the way right to see the before...

White walls, ready-made drapery and hardware. This room was ready for an upgrade.

Started by having a couple of walls painted in a rich, gray-green. This really allows both the new fabric and hardware to pop.

Went with a ripplefold featuring a graphic sheer and sheer lining for coverage. The custom-made fabrics really feel fuller, more richly textured than what was previously in place.

All custom, all the time--from the style to the way it lands on the floor.

We showed this customer a thick, chunky open weave fabric that we'd been dying to use--and that they loved. To add some color, we banded the bottom with a shiny blue fabric to serve as contrast and, as per our customer's request, allowed it to puddle a bit on the floor.

Loving how this one came out ❤️

Oh what a difference draperies can make.

This customer wanted full coverage—high up and wall-to-wall. These simple but elegant Graber Blinds draperies with Kirsch hardware bring the room together without being the focal point.

We love a good challenge.

This hand-woven KUFRI fabric came off the bolt on a diagonal—so we had to re-think the way we wanted to make this cushion.

The solution? Make the whole thing one piece, with Velcro on the bottom so it doesn’t shift when people sit on it.

Always a pleasure working with Nureed Saeed

This supreme member of our clientele wanted a triumph in their living room window—and trusted our methods.

New draperies and window treatment plays beautifully off the cream-colored sofa. You want privacy and heat control? U-got it.

This customer wanted cellular shades without giving up style or the ability to keep the room dark when needed.

Our solution? A classically beautiful shaped cornice with blackout draperies underneath. Swipe for a closer look at the Fabricut trim (they also did the dancing the drapery)
