Alright. As promised, here are more photos from my day at the “gift fair” in New York City. I have often bemoaned that we don’t have a show here in New York like they do in Atlanta. One day, I want to go to that show. However, High Point makes me break out in hives, but Atlanta sounds really nice.
Also, the gift fair, like the rest of the economy, has struggled in recent years. Many vendors don’t show up anymore, and some have had to close their doors permanently. Still, every year, I discover new vendors, and some of them have been there for a while; it’s just that one year, they have a display that really catches my eye.
BTW, I enjoy looking at the displays themselves. Also, I’ve noticed that the best ones, like Coco Cozy, are really well-lit, and the background is in keeping with their furnishings/wares. Presentation is everything!
Here again, is a sampling of some of my favorite vignettes and vendors.
This page looks like Stockholm meets Beijing. Cool. I think I’m getting better at snapping pictures without moving the camera all over the place!
The vendors are not in any particular order. Also, some of the sites may not be accessible without a trade account, but you can access most of them.
Royal Pacific Designs
Bliss Studio (the weathered pieces and pillows)
Bungalow 5 (now Villa and House)
Tempaper (removable wallpaper! How cool is that?)
Dash and Albert (Love, love, LOVE this company! superb, nicely priced rugs and ALWAYS friendly, helpful customer service, and if in stock– super quick turnaround! Now a part of Annie Selke)
Best Wishes,
Laurel
