Notes from CHA

It has been so long since the last time I walked the isles of CHA. Wow I loved being back there. The difference was last time I walked around as a store owner picking up catalogs and debating on what new product we wanted to buy. But this year I walked around as a designer for a store. I was just browsing no catalogs I could pick up and sit around pouring over everything, and I could only hope that the store I design at saw something the same way I did and want to order from them.
I spent the good part of yesterday drooling over some fabulous goodies coming out and seeing some familiar faces and finally meeting a few others who I have only really known through blogs and facebook.


I love all the fun displays that some of the companies came up with.
Some of my favorites from yesterday are Jenni Bowlin, 7 Gypsies, Teresa Collins, Graphic 45 and Fancy Pants. I also love the Tattered Angles now that I know how to use it. I see a class in the making soon. I know there is more but I just can't remember. I may just need to go back tomorrow to refresh my memory.
