Tailgate Show in Nashville

Well, I must say the show this weekend was a huge disappointment! Not sure what was in play, was it the freezing cold weather, the bad economy or maybe we just didn't have anything any body wanted!! BUT we were not the only ones feeling the the squeeze this weekend! I feel very lucky we sold what we did! And I want to thank everyone who came out and supported us!

My booth was very different, people won't buy white at this show and we don't even bother to take it! But I so love white and don't even enjoy decorating a booth without it! From now on I will have white some where in my booth!



The next 3 pictures are Judy Hills booth!
She always has the best displays!
I had a wonderful time visiting with her!




This is Peg of French Vanilla!
She had some great stuff as well!

I love your pictures, your booth looks great!!! Sorry it was not a good show, The last 2 month's at Canton have been slow, but it's been so cold!! Hopefully with Spring around the corner things will pick up. Congrats on winning the purse, I will ship that out to you Tuesday, hope you enjoy it.

You may prefer white, but girl your booth rocked. I love the way you put your own spin on industrial chic!
This is not what I want to hear about sales...hopefully it was the cold, 'cause y'all have some great stuff.

Everything in your booth would fit in my house!!! This is just a funny economy every area is different and things change from one weekend to the next. It will get better, Blessings Meg
