AT THE NEW YORK MARKET -- A new color palette is featured throughout the various product categories at Park Smith Ltd., including lively shades called Lagoon, Island Breezes, and Fruit Punch, which offer high pastels to hot shades of reds, oranges, blues and greens across rugs, bedding, window coverings and bath products.

Cairo, the Egyptian cotton rug introduced last season, has been expanded in color from 12 to about 24 shades. Also in cotton is a triumvirate of a stripe, circle and circle motif in soft shades as well as the new color trio. Bamboo pulp and cotton in a blend are used for a super soft solid color and subtle stripe at $34.99 for the 10-by-30-inch.

Wipe Off, a new multi-functional apron designed in adult and kids sizes, uses the slicker fabric the company introduced last season in shower curtains. The adult size is $14.99, the kids is $9.99.
