Life is Beautiful

Life has been taken over by pre, during and post Life Instyle.
Life Instyle is ace, not only is it the best trade show in Australia – no I’m not biased it just simply is..It is central to Down To The Woods getting our lovely goods out there and showing them to our fab stockists, potential stockists and the media. It is also a great opportunity to catch up with other wholesalers and well..truthfully – do shopping on the last day when all the buyers have spent their dosh and gone home. We took part in our first one earlier in the year up in Sydney from that we found most our fabulous retailers and this one was no exception, it was great to meet up again with most of them and take some new stockists on board. It was also a great opportunity to show our new wares. More on that later. Life Instyle starts for me in the planning – planning of the stand. I think this would be my absolute favourite part. I could almost set it up and choof off home! Oh no that’s right, it isn’t the point, making sales are. Ok twist my arm I’ll stay. Can I go home after the first day?
This time I had my trusty mum to help which was lucky because I lost my voice before it even started. We did the stand pretty similarly to Sydney and I’m already forming ideas for Sydney 2011 which will rock around before I even know it. I can’t wait to do something completely new and launch some great new product too – if I ever catch up after Life Instyle Melbourne.

Not the best shot in the world – it is really hard to take good pics of the lamps all lit up, the shot does show our beautiful new rugs though!
