By Cecile B. Corral -- Home Textiles Today, 2/9/2004
CARTERSVILLE, GA. — Lacey Mills Inc. launched its first line of seasonal kitchen mats, consisting of domestically-made and imported product in a variety of patterns, prints, and constructions.
The line comprises a mix of natural and synthetic fibers.
"We recognized a void in the marketplace for high-end, fashion-driven kitchen rug product," said Tom Etheridge, president, Lacey Mills. "In the average American home, the kitchen has become an important part of the total living space. For many people, it's a very a popular room for entertaining and should be every bit as exciting as the rest of the house."
Designer Karen Townsend described the line as contemporary, but one that "acknowledges traditional kitchen colors in fun, upbeat new designs."
The opening retail price point is set to begin at $5.99 for an 18-by-28-inch mat.
