The Crowd Spoke!

Holy cow! What an incredible weekend! If I got a chance to talk to you - thank you! I love hearing what people are doing and how I can help.

I have to give my husband an enormous thank you! He’s a teacher, and taking time off is hard for them. Monday we loaded the trailer, every evening, and then all weekend was spent at the show. Then, he’s the best sales guy! People love him. I appreciate him following me in this. He’s been skeptical in this venture, for sure. Starting a business is an enormous risk, but I keep getting pulled forward and he knows it’s what I love and people are loving it.

I felt compelled to make the statement I’ve been wanting to in my design this year. Pour into what I love. In last year’s show, I played it super safe for the first time. Everything was classic and very pretty. I picked a chandelier that was popular along with armed sconces that were on trend, but didn’t feel that excitement over it. This year, i wanted to feel excited about it, that I just loved it! In decorating the booth, I brought on small businesses that have products that I love. It’s my store, I need to sell what I love. Which includes natural products. I did what I could to incorporate them in an effort to show beautiful things in materials that are good to the environment.

The wood beaded chandelier was the game changer. I had a slim modern linear chandelier picked, but when I saw the large chandelier - that was IT! And IT, it was. It was the showstopper that people gushed over all weekend! I shop for deals and am able to offer it at a really great price.

From start to finish, the crowd spoke! Going with a design that excited me was definitely the right choice. I had a ton of great conversations with people who love to make statements too!

You know, life’s short. Fill it with all the things you love. Go for the big fixtures that grab you and make you say, “Wow! I love that!” Love your home. You will be so glad you did!

I would love to help you in your updates or new home build!
