First of all, its an exciting day I got my first real account for Leslie Jane Designs. Its with a local decorative drapery hardware company. Meaning.. if anyone wants some beautiful drapery hardware (rod, finials, rings, brackets, etc...) standard or custom just let me know and I can order them for you.
Back to the Houston Decorative Center.. I've worked at my interior design job for over two months now and finally made it over to the Dec Center. For those who are not familiar with the place, its basically a designer hub and dream all wrapped into one. It is open to "trade professionals" only, that is to designers, architects, dealers, etc... aren't I special now :).

There are over 40 showrooms representing over 1,200 manufactures. What is crucial for designers at the Decorative Center is the easy access to samples. Most all showrooms loan out samples for designers to show their clients. You can get lost in 'sample shopping' here.
The following are pictures I snapped with my phone as I went through the Dec Center to give you an idea of what you may see.
