Sneek Peak at Dallas Market Center

This past weekend, I had the great pleasure of attending The Home and Gift Show at Dallas Market Center as a blogger with market’s Sneak Peek program. I have attended market many times, but this trip was the most fun I have ever had. Meredith Hite, VP of Corporate Communications, and her brother, Chris, treated the blogging guests like royalty. We enjoyed a cocktail reception on Friday night with HGTV John Gidding of Curb Appeal. John is as charming as he is handsome.

On Saturday morning we were served a lovely breakfast at Dallas Design Supply and a presentation by Dwell with Dignity. We then made the rounds to several showrooms. Here are some of the great treasures I saw.

 

The sofa pictured above is from the Marshall Clements showroom. They import absolutely stunning antique pieces from Europe.

 

I love this vignette in the In Detail showroom. I thought ecclectic shelving below was extremely eye catching.

 

In the photo below is a beutiful chest by Studio A. The chest is wrapped in linen and  then a technique using gesso is applied. It has such a very delicate texture.

 

These are just a sampling of all the fabulous things from Marshall Clements, The Mix, In Detail, Park Hill Collection, Sudio A, Lady Primrose, Swarovski, Peacock Alley, and Currey and Company. We ended our action packed day with cocktails at Currey and Company.  DMC gave each of the bloggers a swag bag chocked full of fabulous goodies from the showrooms listed above. Many thanks to Dallas Market Center for treating me to a fabulous weekend.
