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.”
