NEW YORK —

Table linens and kitchen textiles manufacturer and importer Elrene Home Fashions, based here, has hired Barbara Menendez as its new stylist for woven goods and packing. The position is a newly restructured one.

Menendez spent the past seven-plus years working in several capacities for curtain and bedding manufacturer and importer Beacon Looms, Teaneck, NJ. Her most recent post was as director of new product development.

"It's a great new opportunity with a lot of potential for growth," Menendez said. "I like anything creative, and Elrene seems to have a motivating vibe here for that. There is a lot of positive energy here."

Menendez reports directly to Christine Ullman, executive vp.
