I finally got to meet Lori from Lori May Interiors and let me just tell you she is a treasure! She was so sweet to pick me up at the airport and basically be by my side the entire conference! She had a friend (who is also a blogger) come with her to the conference and I am so glad to have had the chance to get to know her as well- Jen from At Home In The NorthWest.

Other fun people I got to meet:
Rashon- Mr. GW Hunting (he was such a treat to listen to)
And these 3 ladies-(Darlene from Fieldstone Hill Designs, Erika Ward from Erika Ward Interiors and BluLabel Bungalow and Sherry Hart from Sherry Hart Interior Design and Design Indulgence. I can not say enough amazing things about these gals. I loved their session so much I attended twice!! And let me just tell you Sherry Hart is forever embedded in my mind as "The Fabric Whisperer", this gal is wicked good with putting together patterns & fabrics!

Now its back to my crazy life- this Saturday my lil sis is getting married so this week is full of last minute wedding details. I hope to have some fun pics next week of the wedding. Or you can follow me on Instagram (amandacarolinteriors) or twitter for some behind the scene pics.



















I am so bummed I missed it this year, as we were coming back from orientation with our youngest in Texas. I have had the pleasure of meeting many of the wonderful Atlanta ladies as that is my hometown. Looks like everyone had a fantastic time.
ReplyDeleteyou are so gorgeous- even more so in person! it was so great to meet you! i was already a follower, but now i will be less of a stalker and more of a talker. :) we met briefly at the cocktail party the second night- i know it was people over load!!!
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun few days! Out of all of the subjects we chatted about, how did we not talk about your sisters wedding being so soon!?!? Have fun!!

I have been reading all of the re-caps of Haven today. It sounds amazing. I am so sad I couldn't make it this year...hopefully next year. I am so happy you had fun Amanda. I enjoyed living vicariously through your re-cap today, it confirmed that next year I have to be there :).
ReplyDeleteIt was so great to meet you Amanda! I wish Haven had gone on for another week so we would've had time to sit down and chat for real. :)
ReplyDeleteI am SO glad I got to meet you!! :) Can't wait for Haven 2013!
ReplyDeleteAmanda - I am kicking myself for not introducing myself to you. I saw you several times but never made the connection. I have enjoyed your blog for some time.
ReplyDeleteMaybe next year!
Take care,
Laura

ReplyDeleteGreat recap! It was so great meeting and chatting it up with you! Can you pass along where you got that necklace you were talking to me about? I know that sounds vague, but I'm hoping you pick up what I'm putting down. :)
