In my client’s shoes!

Recently, I visited the Boston Design Center.  For some reason or another, it always manages to rain heavily that day!  Once inside and dry, I got out my list of showrooms I needed to see.   They were all fabric related because I needed to select several samples for a few different projects.  Normally, my van is pretty well stocked, but the theme of one of the projects was not something I regularly carry.   After being there for about 2 hours, I was even happier to know I wouldn’t have to do this again for a while!  It reconfirmed, just how convenient  it is  carrying all of those book around in my van.  I’m a little embarrased to say, I was overwhelmed with all the choices in the various showrooms!   That’s something I often hear from my perspective clients!  I felt like I was in their shoes because it made me realize how challenging this task can be.  I took a deep breath, got to work and before long, I had more samples than I needed and couldn’t wait to see my clients for show and tell!  So, hats off to those of you who tackle these projects on your own.  For those of you who can’t, I look forward to seeing you soon and promise, to find you that perfect fabric!
