Our Slip Covered Bench in Country Living!

If you haven't seen the brand new Country Living March issue, you need to check it out! I'm thrilled because they have shown our slip covered bench on a full page and it looks wonderful. It is in an article entitled "Ravishing Ruffles" and it is an eight page spread filled with drop-dead gorgeous images! What is nice is that they have shown fashions as well as home fashions. The rest of the issue is equally fabulous, so make sure and get your own copy! Remember, we have over 100 colors of linen to choose from and we also do COM (customers own material). Our benches come in any size but we make them primarily to go at the end of your bed, so twin, full, queen, king and Cal king are our typical lengths. Since these are slipcovers, we have many customers that have a lighter color for summer and a darker color for winter!

New York International Gift Fair

I just returned after a week of exhibiting at the Gift Fair. WOW! It exceeded my expectations for sales given the economy and the last few dead shows. I had the chance to show my new colors and many new designs. Unfortunately, I take horrible pictures! The worst part of the show was hearing of all of the closings of so many magazines! My favorite "Domino" made me weep. All of the fabulous editors being replaced at Country Living, what are they thinking!? Cottage Living - gone, and the list goes on. I can only hope that when the economy comes back - they will too! My heart goes out to all my editor friends, I will keep you in my thoughts and meditations.
