We’re excited to share that Sonny Wainwright is now proudly the owner of Made in the Shade Kerrville! If you’ve been following our journey, you know Sonny is no stranger to the Made in the Shade family. After opening our Santa Fe, Texas location in 2021, Sonny and his family recently made the exciting decision to move to the Texas Hill Country and bring their passion for quality window treatments and personalized service to Kerrville.
Sonny’s Journey with Made in the Shade
Sonny’s journey with Made in the Shade began back in 2021 when he opened the Santa Fe location. With a 20-year background in the petroleum industry as a process technician, Sonny was seeking a career that would allow him to spend more time with his loved ones and focus on a business that aligned with his values. Made in the Shade was the perfect fit.
When it came time for a change in location, Sonny and his wife, Vanessa, decided to move to Kerrville in 2024 to enjoy the charm and beauty of the Texas Hill Country and create a new home base for their growing family. This move is a reflection of Sonny’s long-term commitment to both his family and the local community.
A Family-Oriented Approach
Family is at the core of everything Sonny does. He and Vanessa have been married for 25 years, and they are the proud parents of three sons, two grandsons, and a granddaughter. Whether they’re exploring the Texas Hill Country or enjoying time together at the local wineries in Fredericksburg, Sonny’s family always comes first.
This strong family focus carries over into his business. Sonny is deeply committed to providing personalized service that meets the unique needs of every client. From expert measuring to professional installation, Sonny and his team bring the showroom directly to your home, ensuring that you receive tailored solutions for your window covering needs.
Why Made in the Shade Kerrville?
Sonny’s dedication to exceptional service and high-quality products hasn’t changed since he first opened Made in the Shade in Santa Fe. Now that he’s moved to Kerrville, his mission remains the same: to offer stylish, functional, and energy-efficient window treatments that improve the beauty and comfort of your home.

Sonny is excited to be the new owner of Made in the Shade Santa Fe, Texas, where he and his wife, Vanessa, raised their three sons: Holden, Harrison, and Hunter. Holden plans on joining the business after graduating high school and they have recently been blessed with a grandson, Hunter Junior!
Sonny enjoyed a very productive career as an Electrician and Chemical Plant Operator, but was looking for his next venture. While researching a host of different opportunities, Made in the Shade caught his eye. After taking a close look at the Made in the Shade organization, he quickly realized the business model was exactly what he was looking for. But it wasn’t until he completed his conversations with current Made in the Shade owners that he knew that this is where he belonged. The level of success that so many have achieved and the sense of support from the organization and from other owners with which he spoke “sealed the deal.”
Sonny is a passionate outdoorsman who enjoys fishing, hunting, going to church functions, and playing sports with his children. His background places him in a great position to handle any installation, no matter how complex, and his genuine and sincere demeanor will be a hit with his clients. We are excited to support Sonny in his new venture!
