There were over 900 anticipated exhibitors (3500 booths) at CHA this time around. It took me all four days to walk the entire show. In order for me to remember my faves, cause there's a ton to check out, I brought along my monstrous camera. Don't ask why I didn't just bring along a small handheld snapshot camera...that would be the smart thing to do, don't you think?! I took quite a few photos during my four day escapade in CHA land. There were quite a few animals (kiddo collections) on display along with collections reminiscent of days past - think "Etsy" here. There were also quite a few travel lines (typical for Spring), one of my faves coming from Making Memories. Another ongoing theme at show; food. I think we're expected to attend a lot of picnics this Summer. Laugh. Lastly, there were a number of international inspired patterns and products at show. K & Company just released a bohemian style collection (found it at Michaels today) called "Que Sera Sera". Basic Grey will soon release "Marrakech", another collection of international flair. Neither dissapoint.
I'd love to know what your faves are so far from this Winter's CHA. Leave a comment below along with a link so that we can all see what's a "must have" this Summer.
Ok, this is where I start posting a million photos from my visit at CHA. I'm first starting off with Martha Stewart and then, K & Company. Warning - this post will take time to load. Image heavy. Click on Photo to view full size image.
