High Point AKA The Land of OZ

It is Market time, twice a year, the most wonderful time of the year for an interior designer and store owner. Time to be inspired, wowed and awed by the imagination of the manufacturers.
Market actually starts several weeks ahead of the Fall and Spring schedules with notices to register and the arrival of the Holy Grail of the market, the catalogs. Nothing is better than receiving those 2 volumes of accessories and home furnishings, it gets the juices flowing, the imagination running wild and the thoughts of who could I sell this to.......It is exhilirating, exhausting and giddily fun.
So tomorrow AM, for the first time in a very long time, I am driving to High Point from Detroit. By my side, my business associates and best partner in crime, Sandra.....Thelma and Louise are headed to High Point. Just letting everybody know...beware. Our bags are packed, food supplies stashed (Reeses' peanut butter cups, pretzels, almonds, water and diet Coke).
So much to see, so little time, our lists are recorded, we have dogeared catalog pages, torn them from the catalog and polled our clients for needs and wants. Time to gear up and go at it again.

What will we see?...Be prepared for pictures and comments to follow the next few days........................
