This is traditionally one of our most popular events...there will be lots of new accessories, and even greater markdowns, so the shopping will be wonderful.

Finishing Touches Seminar

Attention, designers!

Don't forget to sign up for the "Finishing Touches" seminar on March 18 rom 10:30-12:00. As usual, continental breakfast will be served.
Camille, Andrea, Eve and I worked all weekend rearranging the showroom floor and most of it looks gorgeous. Lots of new things for you to see, and some familiar things placed in new settings.

Part of the showroom looks not so great...actually bad! This is because:

CDT is having an unprecedented sale!!! There is furniture, lamps, art, mirrors and accessories at tremendous savings. There have been quite a few things go right away, so do not delay! All sale items are in the Fabricut room, so it is easy to see what the bargains are.

You can go on the blog on our website to see what's marked down, and things are being added daily! We are in housecleaning mode! We need to make room for fresh new things, and for the 3 shipments of accessories that are coming in in time for our "Accessory Open House" on March 27.

As in past years, there will be some reps, including "Debbie" from Roaming Gallery Artwork, and George from "Art Today". These are vendors you don't usually see at CDT. There will be lots of beautiful new things, and other special treats, both visual and edible.

Please RSVP!!
