Atlanta was quiet this morning as the city woke up to another day of brisk weather.  We headed over to the mart a bit early to check out some of the vendors we needed to place some orders with.  It was nice to see that Howard from Whitney Howard designs was in his booth early.  Howard is such a nice guy and his products are made in the U.S.A.  The new necklaces, bracelets and charms should be in the store before the end of the month.   Next,  we were happy to find the Beehive Designs booth and placed our order for Closet Skinnies.  Most of the Dream Baskets customers know them as Flip Flop Hangers,  but they have been renamed to Closet Skinnies.  They told us they are ready for immediate shipping,  so next week they should be in the store.

It was quickly 9 a.m. and the Market opened.  Today,  it was very exciting to meet some awesome new customers for Sissy Made It.  Ms. Debbie from Chocolate Ooh La La’s has such an interesting business.  We really enjoyed discussing working together with Chocolate Ooh La La’s,  so we will keep you posted on the progress.  Next,  we met several other customers who will be bringing in our line of Sissy Made It Tags, Notepads, Magnets and inspirational plaques.  Initially Yours by MEG and Bonnie Blue Boutique just to name a few.   It was an energizing afternoon talking to so many fantastic customers.    At the close of market, we headed over to building 2 to place our order with Lifeguard Press!  Ms. Natalie Chang assisted us with selecting some awesome new products for our store.  Can’t wait for our new Lily Pulitzer items to be delivered.  What an nice display all of the beautiful pink colors of Lily will make.

Dad and I then worked our way down to the 1st floor and back to the Marriott.  We enjoyed dinner at High Velocity and there were some load New Orleans and San Fransisco Fans enjoying the game.  After a nice dinner,  it is back to the laptop to blog, type in orders, and update facebook.   Until tomorrow – signing off from Atlanta.
