Green Solutions
Sherwin Williams has introduced a new area on their web site discussing the ways that they can help minimize impact of air quality and maximize performance of their product. It doesn't really address the chemicals used to make the paint but there are some helpful hints and good basic information that we could all learn from. Things like how we wash our painting utensils is important to our environment as well as how many times you paint a room. Isn't once really enough. Make sure you have the right color the first time and it will save you money and save our environment. Check it out at http://www.sherwin-williams.com/pro/green/

CBK makes the news
CBK TAKES PART IN ABC’S
EXTREME MAKEOVER: HOME EDITION
CBK, one of the country’s leading wholesalers of quality home décor, gifts, and accessories, is pleased to announce that the company’s home accessories as well as items from its popular Casa Cristina licensed product line, were asked to be a part of the season finale episode of ABC’s hit TV show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is committed to rebuilding or renovating homes of deserving families in just seven days. Each episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition features a talented design team, contractors and several hundred volunteers who work around-the-clock to rebuild an entire house including the exterior and landscaping in the seven day time span. In the season five finale, 18 builders from 12 different states gathered to make Extreme Makeover: Home Edition history by rebuilding not only a home for the Usea family, but also to rebuild Noah’s Ark Missionary Baptist Church which sustained heavy damage when Hurricane Katrina ripped through New Orleans, Louisiana in 2005.
CBK donated several home décor items from different product categories, including its Antiquity Collection lanterns, Hacienda Collection cabinet with an iron stand, table and floor lamp set, Fleur De Lis Bookends and an ottoman. From the Casa Cristina Collection™, a starburst design mirror; cream marble top tables, filigree oval mirrors, wall décor, a 3-panel folding floor screen, octagonal mirrors, and multi-sided mirrors were included.
“There is no doubt that the work completed on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition touches peoples’ lives in such a deep and meaningful way,” said Terry Stewart, President of CBK. “It is a tremendous honor for CBK to have been asked to participate in this family’s story. We hope that others can appreciate the dedication and commitment of the Extreme Makeover: Home Edition crew as they continue to make a difference, and in many ways become heroes to those whose lives they have touched.”

August Paint Class
It looks like paint class will have to be postponed for August and regroup in September. The old shoulder needs some down time and a little surgery too. I won't be able to use my right arm for a few weeks and painting left handed might not work.
We have a few girls wrapping up their pieces over the next few weeks but then we can get started again in the fall.

Atlanta Gift Market
Heading to Atlanta this weekend for the market. We are looking for more hardware and fun things to add to our collection of new stuff at the store. I have been researching a line of dinnerware that I would love to carry. We have the great possibility of the "Company Shops Market" joining us downtown and I want to be ready for shopper that will have eating on their minds. Dinnerware, napkins, placemats, aprons(which we already have some really cute ones) and maybe even some glassware.
Should be a fun trip.
