What uplifting and inspiring events I’ve attended today & last week at ADAC!! At Digital days I loved hearing all the insights of Alexandra Kaehler and meeting her while at her book signing for her new book “A Welcome Home”
Next Atlanta Home and Lifestyles hosted a watercolor luncheon with Stout textiles at the Ernest Gaspard showroom and Kristen Leigh
And Victoria Larsen, both extraordinarily talented Watercolor artist & fabric & wallcovering designers! They oversaw a watercolor session where we designers got to jump into the world of watercolors with some artistic talent & laughter filled that event!
Finally I attended the WCAA Atlanta Chapter with such amazing guest speakers as LuAnn Nigara, , the host and creator of the Window Works podcast, A Well-Designed Business®, which is the number one rated podcast for the interior design business community! She is professional, passionate & hilarious all rolled into one!
Got to meet the lovely, Michele Williams, , a Design Business coach & also founder of “Profit is a Choice Podcast” and
Michele is a woman blessed with a sharp business mind and a desire to encourage others in so many ways!!
Next we heard from Erika Hollinshead Ward,
and Dana Faler Interiors|
-both exceptional designers who gave us insight on how the window treatment community & the design community can partner to make both professions stronger!
Lastly I had to pick up the latest copy of the Modern Luxury Interiors magazine as High Country Drapery Designs was recognized as “Best Soft Furnishings” in the Southeast 🙌
