It's always a pleasure to attend High Point Market in North Carolina, the furniture capital of the USA, and this Fall was even more enjoyable since I was invited to join the Design Bloggers Tour. 

Being part of a community is what made this market so wonderful for me.  Many of you have been following along on my 

Instagram

 feed as I share interesting products and vendors seen this year from the Market.  My most favorite items were...

Bend Goods: We visited with California furniture maker @bendgoods to preview their fun indoor/outdoor and graphic wire frame furniture. Light and airy goods. With an automotive design foundation, a love for color and mid-century design, we can see the foundational influence of this sculptor/designer's interests in each and every design.

Wow!  I fell head over heels in love again with this company. Their ability to stay relevant and to introduce new products on trend is amazing.

Design Bloggers Tour

A community is such an important thing that is often overlooked.  Being part of a community is what made this tour a wonderful opportunity to not only see the latest trends and introductions but to also spend time with like-minded people in design, online media, and with a common goal of diversifying our businesses in the online media environment and in sharing our unique perspectives with you. 

We forget that we are so much stronger together than on our own.

Cute side chair and a little trim influence is seen at Vanguard.
