Hope everyone is having a wonderful year and that the holidays were filled with family and friends. We just got back from the Atlanta International Home & Gift show and there was a lot to see this January!! While it was freezing in Atlanta we were busy trying to visit as many showrooms as humanly possible. I have to say, as many times as we've been to this show with agenda and plan in hand - the mind gets lost as soon as you walk in the first building. Once we got our bearings we headed to the "must visit" showrooms and placed orders and also got a close up look and feel of "what's new for 2010". For the show this year we took a very different approach, we decided to visit many showrooms and "browse" so we could discover where the interest was, what's hot and looked for trends for the coming year. In the four buildings we were seeing lots of colors and I must say turquoise was everywhere.
After a short mind break we concentrated on looking for new products to add to our offerings. Entertainment and gift glasses was high on the list and we were very pleased to find a new vendor offering the quality we were looking for and what our customers expect. This new line, which will soon be on our website soon features wine, martini and mugs for everyday entertaining and for those occasions that require a unique gift!
Speaking of entertaining and gifts...we found a fantastic company (in every respect) that carries aluminum products from jewelry to garden decor.
This gem of a find will fit nicely with our current line of kitchen decor, serveware and gifts for special occasions.
All of the serveware pieces are easy to care for, food safe and oven safe up to 250 degrees. If that isn't enough you can even place in your refrigerator and be able to serve crisp, cold salads!
Pssst...keep checking the website for our new introductions and remember wedding season is just around the corner.
Speaking of aluminum, Arthur Court Designs, now has a selection of Mickey and friends and we're busy adding that to our line and website for all of you "Goofy" Mickey lovers.
Well that's the wrap straight from Atlanta. Have questions? Want to see something we currently do not carry? Just ask...we'll do our best. If you want to keep up with all our latest info become a fan of ours on facebook...until the next post.

this is really appreciated
