IDS West Roundup

I always love to go to IDSWest every year.  And this year was no exception!  I started off my visit with the Poppytalk Social Sessions.  This one was with Justina Blakeney of The Junglow.  It was so so great!  I was introduced to her, her brand and her thoughts on social media.  So glad I went.  LOVE HER!


Then off to listen to the lovely and incredible Emily Henderson.  I don't usually get all starry eyed, but I was seeing stars!  I love everything about her!  You must follow her.  She is lovely and so uber talented!


Of course it was great to stop by my friend Danielle Hardy's shop.  Her decals are stunning!  And she has been a busy girl lately as a mom... re-branding her company... and designing all these to die for decals! Check them out!


From what I saw at the show, you can tell that art under foot is really all the rage.  I came across some really lovely rugs!  And of course the hardwood flooring options are unbelievable!


One of the design trends I love is matte black plumbing fixtures!  OH MY!  Its not for everyone, and maybe not every faucet in your home.  But seriously... These ones from Cantu are gorgeous!


And for those in a small space:  This furniture line is brilliant.  So creative and practical!


I was soooo excited to discover this company!  PURE & ORIGINAL.  This is a natural pigment paint company.  I am hoping to use their paints in project I am working hard on.  They are for furniture or walls.  This one makes the wall look like suede.. or limestone... or something soft and subtle like that!


I could go on...  you may just need to check it out yourself.  At the Vancouver Convention Centre till Sunday the 25th at 5pm.  Otherwise you'll have to wait till next fall!
