Yeah! I'm so excited, but a little scared. Apparently, the High Point Market is huge and can be overwhelming, but I think I'm up to the challenge. My friend Kristen is an interior designer and has been dying to go for ages. She asked me to tag along because she knows I'm obsessed with all things related to interior design. Also, it might be nice to scope out the furniture and products and educate myself on what's out there as I'm starting to decorate for some folks as well. Yes, it's true. I'm dipping my foot in the pool. The water feels nice.
These folks will be there to sign their books . . .
You gotta love over the top Martyn. I just hope I can get him to sign a book and hear him say delicious or dahling at least once.
And, we can't forget Mary, Mary - though she may be contrary, you must admit she's got the glamor thing down. Wonder if she's bringing Nathan back with her? Wonder if we'll be staying in the same hotel??
So, has anyone been before? Any High Point tips? Still haven't packed. Not sure what to wear. Want to be comfortable but not look like a frump. I'm returning on Monday so I'll be back on Tuesday with some of the goodies. Wish me luck!

Comfortable shoes are essential- but brace yourself because when you return home, you'll want to push everything to the curb. It never failed with me. Enjoy the experience!
Enjoy!! So jealous, was supposed to leave yesterday but with our pending move in the next month (fingers crossed) it was just not a good time, be sure you wear VERY comfortable shoes, and take frequent breaks, sooooo much to see. Can't wait to hear all about it!
I wish I could pop over and see you!!! Takes lots of pictures and tell Mary I love her, although she scares me a little. Have fun!!!
Have a fantastic time, Kathy, and please take lots and lots and lots of pictures for us!
Take specific notes. That was my mistake at the Atlanta Market in July. I came home with several pics on my iphone and no source:/
Let me know if you come across any new textile artists. Have a blast!
I have no doubt that you will be the most stylish dresser in the room. You always are, no matter the occasion.
Use that iPhone to tag aisle location and source for later. I have a friend who uses that method at the Atlanta markets. Have so much fun!!! Can't wait to see what you find!
Wear comfortable shoes!! In fact I'd take more than one pair so that you can put on a fresh pair the following day. You will have a GREAT time.
Oh gosh....you will be overwhelmed!!! Soak it in!
I know you will have such a great time. It will be design overload but power through! Call me when you get back and we will catch up.
So Jealous!!! Hope it was amazing. I am definitely hoping to go next year.
And good for you for dipping your feet into the decorating pool. I for one am looking forward to the gorgeous projects you are bound to create.
