After having such a fun time putting together a small photo exhibit at my furniture showroom during the High Point Market last April, I am getting really pumped about cultivating another photo grouping for the October Market.
As I don't envision another trip to Paris between now and fall, I think I'm going to use my upcoming vacation in Montauk as the backdrop this time.
I started my photo mood board with this shot...

TGIHFW2011
Duh, that's Thank Goodness It's Hoofs For Winter 2011.
Hot off a webinar of 2011 Pantone trends and the emotions that they engender, I spot something that looks vaguely familiar... I know where that trend comes from!

The perfect summer accessory
Just got to looking at my June Anthropologie catalog and fell instantly in love with these wire outdoor chairs.
Now if only the model would have scooted about 3 feet to the right so I could check out the green one...

My Gail Simmons moment
Recently, I was in NYC for the Stationery Show, where my friend Emily and I were busy scouting out the cutest, sweetest things in world of paper goods.
It was no wonder, then, that this sweet-scouting parlayed into our downtime in the form of a Cupcake-Off. The two contenders: Sugar Sweet Sunshine and Billy's Bakery.
Once we all dissected the icing-to-cake ratio & cake-moistness levels as compared to sweetness, we had a hands-down winner, and Billy's had to pack his knives and go.

Kevin Costner may not agree
But instead of baseball fields, THIS is my idea of heaven. 125 wedding programs, all complete and ready to go.
And as a nod to my childhood when my parents would use television show lengths to convince my (hyperactive) little sister that the car ride wouldn't really be THAT long (even though it secretly was), this project only took 3 and a half 90210's to complete.
