Seeds In Store!
The newsletter for A Few Cool Hardware Stores
February/March 2010
COMING SPRING 2010:
Seeds In Store!
As the snow flies, spring seeds are arriving. We
have lots of radish varieties, which are quick
and easy to work with and good for kids to see
the growing process, according to Jen Ward,
Glover Park manager. Also look out for:
Asian baby leaf lettuce mix
Peppers and tomatoes
Frisee (we have a great frisee salad recipe on
our blog www.coolhardware.wordpress.com)

We’ve Got Ya Covered!
Hunter Douglas Window Treatments Now at Tenleytown and 5th Street
Peek-a-boo is a fun kid’s game, but not so much when it comes to random people
peeking into your bare windows. Yes, it’s time to get those window treatments up. We
now have gorgeous styles from Hunter Douglas (some are even energy efficient!) to
outfit your home. Bring in your measurements to either store or arrange a house call
with our design-pro Roslyn Ashford of ra reDoes rooms (www.rarooms.com). She’ll
stop by to measure your space and discuss color and design options. The fee is $50,
but if you buy within seven days, the cost will be applied to your purchase. We can
also hook you up with an installer.
Get your creative juices flowing at Hunter Douglas’ online imagine-design center
(shown left) at www.hunterdouglas.com.
Happy 5th Birthday

all on the way!
