This is where we see the changes in colors textures, and shapes most prominently introduced from trade vendors and prominent designers and artists in the home decor industry. 10 Things to Upgrade in your Home – one kings lane Today I am sharing with you all that was “Seen and Heard at High Point Market “ “It’s always about timing. If it’s too soon, no one understands. If it’s too late, everyone’s forgotten.” – Anna Wintour As I toured around High Point Market and visited with a variety of our vendors, I couldn't help but feel the traditional induction into the insiders market. The journey to North Carolina for High Point Market is a tradition for Interior Designers since this is a trade-only event, and an opportunity to refine our insights, as we become enlightened with the knowledge of trends about to surface in the approaching year. It’s also a lot of fun! What Is High Point Market? It is a designer’s lifeline to sources and new vendors. High Point Market is literally millions of square feet of showrooms featuring the latest in products and services. It can make your head spin a little. But we forge forward meeting old friends and new ones. I am also always delighted by the variety of antiques and treasures that were interspersed amongst many of the latest trends and furniture sources. Here are some of my observations: Highland House delights 1.Color and Fabrics: Natural Tones Truly delightful light tones, the popular white sofa, added use of fringe and trims, accented with pops of color as seen at Highland House Isn't this set just beautiful! We will be seeing more of this with natural tones and a luxurious side with more velvets, chambrays, and washed light finishes. Look to see more accent colors in variations of green, with mustard and mauve. We also noticed lots of bold shapes, soft colors, jewel-tone accents, and many minimal interior settings. Millennial pink with pops of metal and handmade accents boho fringe and ethnic rugs 2. The Color: Pink, Blush and Soft Lavenders There is never enough time to see everything at High Point Market, and it can be exhausting trying to do just that. So let your Instagram do the walking for you. Here are a few highlights of some of our favorite new introductions as seen during the market. 3. Textures: Washed finishes and lightweight chambray fabrics (Above) Beautiful Chairs by Windsor Smith for Century Furniture, in a setting with this wonderful textured white boucle sofa. ModShop 4. Accents in Gold and Silver Mixed metals, shiny and with patina. Are you a fan of clean, modern home accents? Lots of gorgeous gold decor for living rooms, tabletop, to add that little touch of glam and act as functional art. Gold is more popular than ever and remains a hot color! There are a number of ways to add gold accents to your home no matter your decorating style. Check Out my Shop” Home Decor “ for decorative elements to add sophistication and a little glam to your home. You might also enjoy these two posts on Design Tips for your home.

dvd Interior Design: Highlights from the Design Influencers 2020 Conference
design bloggers conference Design Influencers Conference 2020 San Francisco, CA. WHAT IS IT ABOUT? The Design Influencers Conference, formally known as the Design Bloggers Conference, offers content creators community and insight into leveraging their online presence through their website, blog, and social influence. For 2020, The Design Influencers Conference returned to San Francisco, CA. and designers from across the nation came together to meet, learn from the leaders of the industry, and get to know each other on a personal level, and learn more about what is happening in our industry the opportunities that are surfacing and the online media environment. HERE’S WHAT HAPPENS AT THE CONFERENCE Many people will ask me, WHY SHOULD I ATTEND THE DESIGN INFLUENCERS CONFERENCE? The relationship between traditional media and digital media is important for propelling your business forward and connecting with potential clients. This relationship is instrumental for creating your brand message and promoting the industry, by offering trend reports, new product introductions, installations, and business news. We share insight to attract clients and elevate our industry. I started this trip as a tourist. How can you visit San Francisco, and not visit the city and all its beauty? It is an amazing place to live. I would move there in a heartbeat given the opportunity. VISITING A GREAT CITY A visit to San Francisco is not complete without a stop at Lombard Street. The most crooked street, and a fun drive when in town. It’s a fun memory for young and older alike. I will always remember my visit with my fellow decor blogger and friend, Laurel Bern. I was super windy and our hair was all over, so no pictures of us. The Design Influencers Conference 2020 I’m Back From The DI 2020 Conference and here is what happened. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. - Albert Einstein. Real Life. Real Connections for Interior Designers and Decor Bloggers. WHY I ATTEND This is my personal perspective. I attend this conference to build new business relationships, face-to-face meetings always beat online interactions. You cannot do the same thing over and over and expect different results. Getting out from behind my desk, meeting with designers all across the nation, sharing what is working what to consider, is all the difference in my business acuity and planning for the future. We’re stepping into something new!

I meet these two lovelies at High Point Market, and so enjoyed catching up with them here at the conference. We’re always sharing ideas and best practices for business. Tim visited NY recently completed a table at the New York Botanical Gardens for the annual fundraiser, the orchid show. It was great to see in there as well. R- Taking copious notes with friend and fellow mentor at our mentoring session, Jana Phipps aka, The Trim Queen. “Let’s live with the stuff that delights and replenishes our senses, the stuff that is filled with totems and memories that represent the chapters of our life, that are written through the things we surround ourselves with.” - Nate Berkus Nate Berkus was truly a hit at the Conference this year. His inspirations for the design of interiors and products that are relevant and meaningful to individuals. Gathering inspirations, from travel and life lessons were relatable and grounded. This really resonated with me. L- My friend and artist, Bari J has a new book out and it is beautiful. You can see it here: BLOOM WILD R- I had the pleasure of meeting these lovely ladies at my table of “Morning Mentoring Sessions”. Revel Objects is definitely one to follow. Her thoughtful ideas on design and creating collections for the soul will impress you too. Interior Design Mentoring Communities for support and friendships are always a welcomed plus… SPEED MENTORING QUICK SESSIONS: dvd Interior Design returns to host the VIP Morning Mentoring Sessions. ( How to get more leads and clients on autopilot, how to build on social media and online activation. ) A few weeks back, my design mastermind team and I put on a live Morning Mentoring Session Bootcamp on 3 types of social building to our design businesses and to build relationships with each other, our fellow influencer design community. Over 100 social entrepreneurs and designers signed up for it and the reviews we got were incredible. Jana Phipps, Jeanne Chung , Carla Aston, and Laurle Bern Testimonials: Alright you guys, this conference has been goood. I can’t overstate the importance of face-to-face networking in this day and age. Hearing from design idols in IRL and not just their IG stories, being pushed as a business owner to think differently. I’m coming back with new ideas, new motivations and let’s be honest (some new clothes too). 😉 Can’t wait to implement the NEW and excitement with this team! #centeredbydesign - team photo by: @linacaro (who I can’t recommend enough and is moving to the west coast!) #designinfluencerscon @designinfluencersconference Throughout this 2 day event, our attendees participated in hands-on lessons and workshops, discovering smart design strategies to up-level their skills and empower them to create more beauty in their homes and lives.
