[SML] Curtains

[Jon Ares]

Best of luck. Keep us updated.  If this is a "one-off", then what
about renting?  Kristi mentioned "Sew What?" - I've used their rental
side of the business "Rent What?" many times, and everything has
always been in good shape, and shipped very well (and as inexpensively
as heavy drapes can be shipped). Plus, they send all the certificates
of flame retardancy, snip samples, etc. I know there are other
companies that rent as well, but maybe that's an option?

I got him to give me a very basic/rough quote on a recent project they just did, simular to what I was thinking.  When I presented that rough price to the director of the HS musical & the Actives assistant, they thought that price was far more than they can swing at this time.  I hope they use it as leverage to get the wall painted, sooner than later.  I will keep all of your suggestions of venders on file incase things change.
