DEAR GOD I AM TIRED! I took a red eye from PDX last night and got in to Greensboro at 9 am. Should I check into the hotel and freshen up perhaps? Uh - no! I headed straight for High Point and talked a lovely fellow named Dedrick into letting me have the last free parking space in the city and headed off to work. I will definitely bring him coffee and donuts in the morning to say thank you! I was severely under caffeinated and had to fix that situation before I could do anything else. Thank god for free coffee!
I placed two orders today - one with www.soicher-marin.com , from their new SM2 collection. A little more hip and a little more affordable and super good looking and well framed. They also have the Suzanne Kasler collection and the Marette Hines-Gomez collection that will fit in perfectly with my new www.HickoryChair.com stuff. Ms. Gomez is speaking tomorrow and sharing her thoughts on "...classic, modern design with an unpretentious sense of luxury". SIGN ME UP! I think I will get me a seat in the front row. I am a back of the bus front of the classroom kind of gal. Show up and pay attention is my motto!
Once again, my iphone is having issues getting pictures into my blog - so if you want to see some of it, you will have to go to my Facebook page. Sorry - lame!
I placed another order with one of my favorites - www.design-legacy.com. Their product line just gets better and better. Again, Facebook. I ordered a bunch of 26 x 26 pillows (linen) with HUGE poppies - a rubber duck water game (sooo cool!), linen bug pillows......LOVE IT!!!
Let's see, what else....I went to see Visual Comfort, Company C, Arteriors, Eurostyle, Kenian, Surya..stopped for a few drinks on the way - gotta love those hallway bars - and I totally blew off the Elle Decor party to go to dinner with my friend Miss Susan and her lovely husband Greg. Their hotel is close to this KILLER BBQ joint and she goes to it every time she is at market and now she shared it with me. YIPPEE! It's called Country Bar-B-Que st 4023 West Wendover Ave - right off Hwy 40 at the Wendover exit - North of the Hwy. UN.B.LIEVABLE. After a hard day of shopping, it was the perfect finish. Que so good it makes you weak in the knees. Go - run screaming! YUM!
Anyhoo - I am dead tired and almost in a food coma - so I best get to bed - especially if I need to go and get donuts in the morning!
I swear by the end of this week I will have pictures - thanks for your patience! Tune in tomorrow and see what I find...... I can't wait!
