Hotlanta’s Hot Market

Day two of the Americasmart in Atlanta was just as inspiring and beautiful as our first day. One of the highlights of the day was seeing John Robshaw’s new collection. Here’s a tiny, sneak peek!

What isn’t to love about John Robshaw’s entire line? The bedding is some of the softest cotton percale I’ve ever felt, and the Indian-inspired prints are such a beautiful way to enhance any bedroom. Don’t get me started on his accessory and decorative pillow line either! The entire line was absolutely stunning, and the icing on the cake was – wait for it – meeting the man himself. That’s right, at the end of the day, while we were exhausted and cross-eyed, we decided to stop back by the showroom and lo and behold, John was there in person. He was so charming, and we’re so excited to bring them back to our little home town. Who’s ready for some bright colors and bold prints? We are!

Market isn’t just for buying. We also go for new ideas, creative motivation and all around visual stimulation. Here are some funny and beautiful things we saw while wandering.

Our creative juices are officially flowing! While we can’t wait to get back home to implement some of the ideas we came up with, we have bit of a stopover in Paris, France for Maison d’Objet, where we’ll be sure to see some fantastic new products, and out of this world design ideas. What would be you expect to see in Paris? Share your thoughts and ideas with us!

Next Up, Market!

The Picket Fence had a great holiday season, and while I’m sad to see it go, it also means that it’s Market time!! In January, there are retail markets that take place all over the world. There’s the AmericasMart in Atlanta (Hotlanta), the New York International Gift Fair in – you guessed – New York City, and finally, there is the Maison d’Objet in Paris, France. Our buyers, who will be introduced momentarily, typically go to the NYIGF, but this year we decided to mix it up a bit. TPF will be sending Massey Glenne and Barbara Palazuelos on a whirlwind of a trip to Atlanta, then to Paris.

Day 1 in Atlanta was amazing! Market was jam packed with buyers from all over the world, and the showrooms were filled with beautiful furniture, inspiring accessories and stunning lighting. Here are some of my favorite items so far to whet your design appetite.
