i knew all of those words on that part of the list because 1) i worked as housekeeping supervisor at a high end resort in estes park where we had damask tablecloths, taffeta curtains, chenille covered chairs, and chambray shirt uniforms for the housemen who worked the 4 a.m. to 11 a.m. shift; 2) my wife and i got married in full renaissance costumes and went on to win first prize four years in a row at a local mardi gras party so through our costumers i learned about bandeau and kohl; and 3) part of the preparations for my younger sons wedding involved my making screens from masses of camouflage tulle because their wedding colors were camo and orange (note, the orange was my son’s favorite color).
it’s amazing how much you can learn about things like that when you have multiple memorable experiences with them.
