Julie was absolutely delightful and gave me her business card to contact her about Chameleon Fine Furniture in the near future. After about 10 minutes I got the opportunity and introduced myself. Not wanting to rain on the Lacefield parade I tried to stay alert to an opportunity. Once they got to talking I rushed to see if I could find the Calico girls and as I was returning to Win, I spotted them in the Lacefield Textiles booth. I summarized that she needed a distributor and that perhaps that would fit into the Trend line! He was delighted. I introduced “Delphine” to a Fabricut-Trend exec. When I got to Fabricut-Trend booth, the Calico Group was just leaving and sped off to another area. Win waited in the finial booth with all the bags etc. I volunteered to take them to the Fabricut-Trend booth two aisles over. One girl named Delphine, said we couldn’t “buy” yet because they don’t have a distributor. We spotted a lovely display of hundreds of finials for drapery rods with two Taiwanese girls manning the booth.
