"This Thing Called Family" has gone to market!

Logo on stickers
It's been a long year of waiting and more waiting, but the time is finally here when our new line is being launched out into the world! 

The Atlanta gift market is happening as we speak.  Buyers from shops all over the US are picking out the products that they want to sell in their stores this year.   Hopefully lots of them are choosing ours! We can't wait to hear more about how it's going and get some feedback on what buyers are saying!  But for now, Demdaco was nice enough to send us this picture of what our area looks like:

Next week is the Chicago Market.  We'll be going over that weekend and are planning on spending the day, January 22nd, exploring the Demdaco showroom, taking pictures and browsing around the rest of the market.  This will be our first time experiencing the market atmosphere, so if anybody's got any advice, we're all ears!

To celebrate and spread the love, we will be giving away several pieces from our new line!  So keep your eyes and ears open because some GREAT giveaways are coming your way soon!

Our little blurb on the back of each piece.
