And, we're not talking a little bit of snow, Atlanta had so much snow that over 1000 flights were cancelled. Upon our arrival I realized how fortunate we were to have arrived at all!
So much is slated to arrive over the next couple weeks that it's almost dizzying, you're going to love it! But first, it's on to the Dallas Market later this week and then New York next week.
After that it will be time for our annual BIG February sale during the upcoming Canton show and then......we get to begin the Shoppe transformation for Spring! All of the crew is excited and ready to get started! And, of course for me, this is one of the highlights of being a shoppe owner!
My time online will be extremely limited over the crazy weeks ahead so please bear with my scattered posts. But, I will pop in and update you as cool things arrive.
Stay tuned and get ready!
Sorry you had such a snowy trip to the south. It's been a rough week here. I'm following you now. I like your inspiration. Keep blogging!

My sister lives in Ga and said she's never seen anything like it. She said the kids were out of school for an entire week and everything was shut down. You were lucky to have gotten in! Can't wait to see the tranformation! Post lots of pics!
ReplyDeleteI'm exhausted just reading this, where do you get your energy from? :) Always love to hear what you're up to!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you've been. Sounds like you've got a crazy month ahead of hard work,but lots of fun!
ReplyDeleteFun, fun, fun! We did (what we like to call "fruit basket turnover") in the store the past two weeks. Market this week. I need to head up your way and see whatcha got going on. Have not been in ages!

ReplyDeleteThe snow in the South has been unreal this Winter! Here in Alabama we had snow on Christmas day ... a first for me in my 40 yrs of life! Then last week the kids were out of school all week because of snow and ice.
Stay safe in all your travels

Thanks so much for following my blog. I'm now following yours. It's a pleasure to "meet" you. I have a friend in Georgia who couldn't fly out last week due to the unusual icy conditions in her area. She's never lived through anything similar before! Interesting winter this has been, hasn't it.

Our line is carried in the Atlanta Mart - 13S120 Building 3 - I was concerned (ok, FREAKED!) that the show would be a wash, but it turned out pretty good - thanks to you intrepid, fascinating, shop owners! I adore you all (ya'all)! It is great to see life through a shop owners eyes.....
ReplyDeleteDebra

Urgh - the snow is so pretty that I never want it to go. But the disruption it causes is horrendous and people don't like having to wait for delayed parcels.
ReplyDeleteGet yourself a good pair of shoes for the Canton show. LAst time we were there, we worked out we were walking about 15 miles a day round stands. I was pregnant too at the time !
Hi Sarah,
ReplyDeleteNo worries, we aren't walking and buying at the Canton show, I own a 5000 square foot store there so we spend our time selling during the show....it's still hard on the feet though! :))
Hey Laurie Anna... counting down.... the days... Thanks for sharing DaphNE with me.. She gave us the coolest vintage western chic handbag for the silent auction... did a shout out on my blog...
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the ATL trip was an adventure - I'm in the South and it really stopped everything for days!
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog and am loving your posts!
Looking forward to your 'signs of spring'. Stay warm, my friend.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Deborah
