Off to High Point Market with Happy Feet!!

I will be going to the High Point Market trade show(Spring 2013) for the first time and I leave tomorrow! I haven’t been unable to contain my excitement and if you’re on twitter or instagram, then you might have seen the hashtag #hpmkt all over your feeds. It’s a huge deal!

A Quick Background Info:

The High Point Market (originally Southern Furniture Market), held in High Point, North Carolina is the largest home furnishings industry trade show In The WORLD, measuring over 10 million square feet (1 km²) encompassed in approximately 180 buildings throughout the area. The market holds two major shows each year, one in April and another in October, running for 6 days each time.



Since I want to make the most of my experience, I have no intention of making my shoes become an issue. I am all for happy feet which means I shall be sporting flats.


Gone are the days when flats were synonymous to plain and dowdy. There are so many varieties to choose from these days!

Here are a handful of some of the showrooms that I will be happily and comfortably touring:

The Lounge Collection by Robert Petril. I am especially excited about this showroom. Robert doesn’t shy away from colour and his designs are bold. I love that!

The Thibaut showroom is sure to be a feast for the eyes where beautiful patterns and colour abound!

A taste of what CR Laine’s showroom has to offer! Swoon!

I think this Conrad table is on almost every pin board on Pinterest!  Worlds Away showroom will be fabulous, I’m sure! There are so many more showrooms that I am looking forward to visiting! Not to mention the educational workshops! Oh what an enlightening experience this will be!

In addition, I am thrilled that I will be able to meet a number of other bloggers too. This is sure to be an unforgettable experience! I will be blowing up twitter and instagram all weekend so stay tuned! Blessings and have a safe weekend my friends. XX
