That's right, the Pillow Goddess, WAS in the hot seat last week for a #PillowFight as guest host of #DesignLux chat's "Pillow Fight". Didn't see any feathers flying as in "Along Comes Polly" (at least not yet!), but boy was it a blast!!
Thank you so much Brandon Smith for having me as a guest host. I always look forward to your chat #DesignLUX every Thursday. I think we were rather a tame bunch for this first go around, so you might have to have a few more #PillowFights to get the adrenalin going. But in case you, dear readers, missed the chat, do not fear as I recap it all right here (below) with a few opinions, pillow finds, and tips from followers of #DesignLux chat.
Well, it's that time of year again - High Point Market in North Carolina,(#hpmkt) THE largest furniture market in the U.S. - kicks off this weekend from Saturday, April 5th - 10th. There will be an incredible amount of fabulous new design from top brands and smaller ones with the famous Style Spotters (10 designers hand-selected by #hpmkt) sharing all their finds. Plus all my Twitter friends are going to be there, as well as two designers that I've grown to admire very much.
Well, hello world!! It's great to be back home in Austin, Texas after a whirlwind of a #BlogTourNYC trip, but I am confident that I can speak for all my fellow bloggers:
#BlogTourNYC was THE most enriching experience ever! We can't believe it's over! We miss everyone! AND, we wish we could relive it all again!!
One of the highlights for me and Deborah Main Designs at the #SneakPeek at Dallas Market in January (Yup, I still have a couple more posts of inspiration from just that one single day!) was having the opportunity to meet and hear Thomas O'Brien speak. Not having a background in design, I honestly didn't know who he was. I really enjoyed hearing him speak, seeing his slide show, and learning about his NYC store. Since going to Dallas was my first time attending market as a blogger, I was very keen on learning more and listening to what he had to say. I was definitely intrigued!
