“Design should be as functional as it is beautiful— that’s where we come in.”

— Greg Kaminski

 

For 20 years, Craftwood Doors and Windows has been a trusted name in home design across the Chicagoland area. Known for premium-quality windows, doors, and mouldings, the company pairs exceptional products with reliable, hands-on service. From the beginning, their mission has been simple: provide high-quality, trend-forward solutions at fair prices.

Backed by a team of highly trained professionals, Craftwood offers sustainable materials and visits project sites at multiple stages to ensure every detail meets expectations. “Our team knows there’s no one-size-fits-all solution in home design,” says co-owner Jakub Razniak. “We work closely with each client to understand their needs and deliver results that balance comfort, safety, uniqueness, and beauty.”

Founded by co-owners Greg Kaminski and Jakub Razniak, both immigrants from Poland, the company quickly became a go-to resource for homeowners, architects, and builders. Specializing in architectural doors, windows, mouldings, hardware, and other design elements, Craftwood works directly with tradespeople and designers to ensure every choice adds both beauty and function. They offer free estimates based on architectural blueprints, giving clients accurate cost forecasts and peace of mind from start to finish.

Most recently, Craftwood introduced Skyvi Pergolas—luxury outdoor structures imported from Poland. “Skyvi Pergolas bring a level of European design and engineering that’s rarely seen in the U.S.,” says co-owner Greg Kaminski. “They’re built for year-round comfort, with adjustable louvers for shade control, integrated LED lighting, and weather-resistant materials that handle the Midwest climate beautifully. It’s an investment that transforms a backyard into a true outdoor living space.”

From consultation to delivery, Craftwood makes the process seamless, delivering products directly to customers’ homes or job sites. Whether refreshing a single room or tackling a full renovation, their expertise and personal approach make every project a success.

Kristina and Matthew Bailey began reading books to their son, Owen when he was six months old— they haven’t stopped.
Owen turned 4 in June and recently received an award from the Clarendon Hills Public Library for having had 1,000 books read to him before starting kindergarten.

The library’s 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge is one of a few reading challenge programs offered in Clarendon Hills, where the Bailey family has lived for the past 2 1/2 years.
Kristin Bailey said she saw an ad about the 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge and decided it was a good fit for Owen.

“He’s always been really into books,” Bailey said. “He had a natural interest in books at nine months old. That’s when COVID started, and he didn’t get out much, so reading books to him worked out very well. He’s a naturally curious kid, and imagination-building is important. The reading allows him to learn and explore new things, and he really wants to learn to read now.”

Krista Devlin, the Clarendon Hills library’s youth services librarian, said there’s a specific reason The Friends of the Library-sponsored 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten Challenge was started in 2022.

“Reading aloud to a child is one of the best ways to help develop important early literacy skills, which will prepare them for kindergarten,” Devlin said. “It is also a great way to bond with your child and to encourage a love of reading.”

Devlin said Owen was the second child to reach the challenge of having 1,000 books read to him before starting kindergarten. He was awarded a certificate, a crown, and his picture was taken to recognize his accomplishment.

Bailey, who said she is “a big reader,” said her family usually goes to the library once a week. Reading three books each night to Owen, along with a book before nap time, is the household normal.

“Consistency in our routine has been good and is important,” she said, adding that Owen’s two sisters, ages 2 1/2 and 1
