I love the upbeat and vibrant colors that filled the market....it's like a huge bizarre with a million products, thousands of scents and sounds and a multitude of languages...it's a place where you can walk for 10 hours a day for 3 days and still need more time to see it all. Here are a few of the colorful shots from the exhibitors that let me take pictures.
This should be called, KA-POW Orange.
Just huge!
Great needlepoint club-head covers.
These are great wool rugs. Ordered several for my summer / beach vignettes. Barclay Buterra uses them too. They come in dozens of other patterns and colors....I'll have a post on these later.
A cool cow skin side table with 3 drawers.
Fabulous hand painted trash cans, letter holders, tissue boxes and pencil boxes.
Liked the colorful rattan.
A view between Market buildings.
Awesome chest of drawers...I've never seen a pyramid crowned one - it was about 7.5 feet high.
John Wind, the super talented and charming jewelry designer hams it up with my mother.
Bah ah ah at first sight!
But we love these planters...they look great, weigh almost nothing and will not crack or split! How cool and perfect? Oh yhea, Martha Stewart orders them by the dozen. I'll have a post on more of these later this week...and how they can be ordered.

Neat to see all of your photos, Alex and explore the gift show vicariously. I lived in ATL for nearly 20 years and used to go to the show with my parents who owned a shop. It was fun, but I think I've rarely been as exhausted. Thanks for commenting on my painting! Have a great week.
You know, I could run 15 miles and not be as tired as I get at the Atlanta Market!! Those weightless planters are the thing...I have several and just adore them!!
I should have gone to dallas. what showroom are those rugs from? i love those! and what showroom is the lilac one? your mom is adorable, no surprise - you are too!!!

I love the striped wool rugs. And Joni and I were at the market together at Dallas last year. Maybe we can all meet in Atlanta next year!
So many great items, would have loved to have been there! I really liked that red / white Chinese wallpaper! Wonder where it's from? And those colorful rattan chairs, just beautiful!
Both of your reactions to those wool rugs was the same as mine...I can't wait for my order to come in.
I'm coming to the Dallas show this summer. Joni, Are you going to be around for it?
Wish I had been there! Loving the oversized crazy orange chinoiserie wallpaper & the huge head!!
Those planters are beautiful. Which showroom were they in? I get exhausted as soon as I walk through the doors of the Mart - there is so much to see it is daunting.
What a fantastic spread of Wonderful items. Don't know where to look first lol.
Thanks for the tour! It all looks so colorful! Just what is needed here in New England in January!
