OBSESSING OVER THE DETAILS

OUR
STORY

CRAFTING BEAUTY

My name is Dawn Novotny, owner and designer at Interiors by Dawn.

For the past 16 years, I’ve poured my heart into learning, refining, and mastering the craft of marine upholstery and design. I care deeply about every detail — the fit, the finish, and the quality behind each stitch — because creating something beautiful and built to last truly matters to me.

I never set out to be just another upholstery shop. My goal has always been to blend thoughtful design with skilled craftsmanship, creating spaces that feel unique, intentional, and timeless. I’m grateful for the opportunity to help boat owners turn their vision into reality, whether it’s a small refresh or a complete interior restoration.

My work is about more than fabric and flooring. It’s about elevating the time people spend on the water and building trusting, lasting relationships with those who entrust me with their boats. I take great care with the process and the integrity behind every project, always striving to deliver work I can be proud of and that serves my clients well.

My sincere hope is that the care and attention we put into your space makes your moments on the water feel even more special and enjoyable.
