Show Time

It’s that time of year again and we’ve been away setting up and showing off some of our holiday goodies in Charlotte, NC at The Southern Christmas Show. Each morning shoppers are lined around the building waiting for the doors to open, excited to see what’s new this year. Let me show you a few of our Favorite Things..!!!

How adorable is this fun mug…!!! One of my New Favorite Things..:)
And of course, I kept some of these for ME..!!!
How CUTE is this mug filled with our new Yummy Yellow Striped Paper Straws. Look how pretty it is with our fun Ribbon Plate…..
This was the first time to SHOW our PAPER STRAWS in public to shoppers. Until now, they were only available on our web site. We were excited to see the reaction and hear all the wonderful exciting comments over them.
Ok…let’s keep moving around for glimpses of our little store at the Christmas show…:)
And NO…..we won’t be adding these fun holiday items to our web cart. We only ordered for our show, but we WILL hold something for you if you’d like and ship it next week after the show. Just email me…!!!
  You WILL find these fun Christmas Cupcake Papers and Favor Bags on our web site…and our charming Party Poppers that were featured in Paula Deen’s Magazine
   Cake Stands and Serving Dishes in colorful holiday designs…So Pretty.

Not the best picture here but you get an idea what our shop looked like.
OK…The show runs through the rest of this week. If you’re in the Charlotte, NC area and get a chance to attend the show, please stop in and tell my sweet TIRED hubby, hello…!!! He’s there finishing up while I came home to catch up and finish my new designs for winter market……!!!!
Hope you’ve enjoyed my little tour through our Christmas Shop.
Be back soon with more news to share…:)
 

Thrilled to be seen……in Paula Deen

To say I was THRILLED, well just doesn’t describe my excitement when Hoffman Media’s creative stylist, Clay Chaffin, stopped in our showroom in Atlanta and fell in LOVE with our colorful sweet products. When he ask me to send some things to him to be included in Paula Deens Christmas Magazine he didn’t have to Twist My Arm…:)))
Clay sent me some copies of Paula’s Christmas Magazine last week and I Squealed with Delight..!!!! My Party Poppers are featured on Page 15.
Clay used My Party Poppers on Paula’s table as party favors on the plates in each place setting. The close up shows them displayed on a pretty serving tray.
They were also used on Paula’s Christmas Tree that sits on her kitchen counter seen there on the opposite page. 
   Here’s a close up of our Party Poppers….They make the PERFECT Party Favor and will make your table settings..POP…!!!!
Thank you Clay for including Our Sweet Products in Paula Deen’s  Christmas Magazine….Be sure to pick up YOUR COPY of this beautiful Holiday Book where you’ll find recipes for your holiday meal, gift giving ideas and look for ME there too..!!!
I’m thrilled…!!!!
