SHOWTIME! What a fantastic week we had in Las Vegas at World Market (furnishings and decor) show and the International Builders Show(IBS). These shows are a must if you are a builder, interior designer or any part of the building trades; there's something for all. I do these events to gain knowledge on current trends, the latest innovations in technology, style, design and so much more ~ seeing is believing. I'm there adding "tools" to my own personal "tool bag"; knowledge is power! As a business owner and interior designer, attending these types of events give me a "leg up" on those folks that don't attend.

There were 5 great trade shows in Vegas this week and the shows brought the largest crowds since 2008. The IBS show drew a crowd of over 70,000 guests. It was so awesome seeing people out and excited to be there following the last three years of being somewhat isolated.
