Shout-Out: rateGenius Loans, A+, and CV Linens
All the black linens you saw at the Showcase were purchased at CV Linens. They are located in Pflugerville and are super affordable. I've ordered a couple of times with them and never been disappointed. I ordered online and picked up next day! Keep them in mind for next order!
