Saturdays at Pratt & Larson - Free Design Seminar!

We're having another Seminar Saturday! Stop by for some great design tips. It's free!

Our Open House was a Great Success! (Part Two: Our local tile makers)

This is the second half of the post on our Open House for the Architect & Design community. The party was a big hit and all the hard work really paid off. Many, many thanks are due to all the local tile companies who participated! Our vendors from Oregon and Washington brought new displays and artwork and all sorts of wonderful stuff for everyone to see. The showroom really looked fantastic filled with tables of new product. So thanks again everyone for taking part and helping to make this event a great success.

Our Open House was a Great Success!

On November 4th we had an open house for the Architecture & Design community. It was a great success! We had a terrific turn out and we all had a wonderful evening. All the hard work we put into getting the showroom painted and the displays refreshed and rehung really paid off. Many thanks to everyone who took part in getting it all ready and to the design community for spending the evening with us. There are a ton of pictures (thanks Angela and Alison!) so I'll post them in two entries.
