Foto Friday: Design overload

Sunday was the first day of the National Stationery Show, Surtex (surface design) and ICFF (Int'l Contemporary Furniture Show).  So what is this show?  Well, if you buy anything with design on it: shower curtains, dinnerware, bedding, tissue holders, kitchen textiles, skins for your iphone, etc., or just about anything you see in the store with art or design on it, there is a good chance someone here designed it.  I had some stationery designs in Crane & Co. and Ann Scott Design.  I also took a workshop on Licensing artwork/design.  It has been a long 4 days.  On my feet everyday all day and my training took a hit; I am exhausted mentally and physically.    I decided to share some pics from the show.  I'm not really allowed to take photos of the stationery and design stuff (not Kosher, except for mine), but I do have some photos of some cool stuff from the furniture side.

Mine are the florals

I am negotiating some licensing on these...hopefully at online site near you!

Then they had some student work.  They created fashion from paper goods.  Yes, people, all these designs are made from paper only!!

 Saturday?  A century ride!!!!  Don't let those exclamation points fool you, I'm not sure how excited I am about it.  It is going to kill me, they have lots of climbs planned.  Thank God we can take the train back to the city after lots of beer at the end (for the train too).  I'm counting on it being canceled due to the Rapture and all.....Anyone for some post Rapture looting?
