THE WALL O' PRODUCT


Great displays at a show like this is key--a point not lost on these gals. A cool concept can seal the deal. Using crafty, white peg boards they showcased the product like it was in a hip garage. The colors pop next to the squeaky clean white everyday objects. There is something very Duchamp-ian going on here...


Plungers, hoses, brooms, dustpans, tool cases, buckets and scrub brushes bring clean to the scene. With the economy the way it is, people will want to keep their homes spotless and nice if a vacation is not in the future. Find out where to get your cool tools at Alice Supply Co.
