I’m off this afternoon. I am leaving today because I’m an Exhibitor and I have to set up my booth tomorrow. Most exhibitors have already been in High Point for a while, getting their showrooms ready, fussing and dressing. THE BATH COLLECTION, my line of extra long ready made shower curtains, only takes about 2 hours for set-up and display. I’ll be at the loading dock by 8 a.m. tomorrow morning and should have the booth complete by lunch.
The International Home Furnishings Market officially opens at 8 a.m. on Saturday morning. However, many of the showrooms will be open on Friday and several are having welcome parties on Friday evening. The market is spread throughout the city of High Point. My booth will be in one of my favorite buildings, Suites At Market Square, which is attached to the Historic Market Square building, an old factory with wonderful architecture. This time, we’ll be on the Mezzanine level, Booth 4027.
While I’m excited about going and being an Exhibitor again, I know that Market is a lot of hard work. As a designer, it’s truly, truly difficult for me to be “stuck” in my own booth when I want so badly to go to all the showrooms and buildings and see what’s new, touch and feel. It’s important to know and see so that when I’m recommending furnishings to my clients, I have first-hand knowledge.
I’ve been attending High Point since the year 2000 off and on as a Designer and I’ve always travelled with fellow designers who are my dear friends. Because we live in Atlanta, High Point is about a 5+ hour drive, so we have traditionally carpooled and roomed together, going our separate ways during the day and meeting up to have lunch and dinner after a long, grueling day.
This year, I’ll have the company of my friend and fellow designer, Regina Schuber from Dublin, GA and I have someone from High Point who will be coming to help with my booth each day. I’m anticipating heavy traffic and lots of sales!
THE BATH COLLECTION is always well received and there are always positive comments about how much the product is needed! I’m filling a forgotten niche in the home fashion market. I have 5 new introductions this market and I’m looking forward to hearing the reactions!
Wish me luck and if you come, please say hello!

Next Friday, October 15, 2010, is another great opportunity to help support cancer research.
Through my friend and fellow designer, Lynn M. Morley, I have donated a signed copy of the book, Spectacular Homes of Georgia. in which my work was featured, together with a one hour consultation, to be added to the auction items. (Hope somebody buys it!)
The Seena Magowitz Foundation is among the hosts for the FIRST GOLF ATLANTA CHARITY GOLF TOURNAMENT to benefit globalCure, a new initiative aimed at finding better treatments for pancreatic cancer.
The event will take place at the Crabapple Golf Club, located at 4115 Earney Rd. Woodstock, GA 30188-2239 and begins at 9:30 a.m. with a continental breakfast. Golf and an awards luncheon follow. The luncheon will feature the live auction.

I cannot be present, as I will be in High Point, setting up my booth for my company: Legacy Linen Group. However, I am sure the event will be a great success.

Tomorrow, Thursday, October 7, from 11:30 to 1 o’clock, I will be in Roswell at THE WORKS for a To The Trade presentation of the new showroom. If you’re a decorator or designer in the greater Atlanta area, you should be at this event.
As I’ve mentioned, I am one of the members of THE WORKS through my company, Legacy Linen Group. THE BATH COLLECTION, my line of ready-made, extra long shower curtains, is on display and available for purchase in the store.
However, I will also be working tomorrow on behalf of Breast Cancer Awareness and will be having a jewelry trunk show & sale for those in attendance and have pledged that 20% of the profit on the sale of every item will go towards this cause.
Legacy: THE JEWELRY COLLECTION, is my newest venture. It’s just a small sideline, but one I enjoy and it gives me an opportunity to give back. The Collection consists of lovely pieces that are “designer replicas” .
If you’re planning to attend, please RSVP to betteraburn@gmail.com.
ANIMAL ACTION RESCUE FUNDRAISER September 22, 2010

This post has absolutely, positively NOTHING to do with interior decorating or design! So why am I posting it? Because, the animals need our help.
Tomorrow evening is an opportunity to lovers of animals in the north metro Atlanta area to step up and join in and get a great bauble to boot! That’s because I will be hosting a jewelry trunk show & sale and a portion of the proceeds will go to benefit our local ANIMAL ACTION RESCUE.
I’ve added a new venture to my line-up – after all, it’s not as if running a successful international interior design firm isn’t enough! (Legacy Design Group, Inc.) It’s not as if running an up-and-coming one-of-a-kind product manufacturing company isn’t enough! (Legacy Linen Group, LLC). It’s not as if being a wife of 38 (!) years and mother of two incredible grown children isn’t enough! Oh no, I needed to add something else to the mix. And so,
Legacy, THE JEWELRY COLLECTION was born. I have always loved jewelry and I am often complimented on the pieces I wear. I have a knack for mixing my “real” jewelry with well made costume and designer replica pieces.
Tomorrow evening, from 5-8 p.m., I will be at THE WORKS in Roswell doing what I love – showing and selling my line of beautiful designer replica jewelry to anyone who wants to help Animal Action Rescue. And, I’ve got some really, really great pieces.
THE WORKS is located at 10800 Alpharetta Highway in Roswell. That’s at the intersection of Highway 9 & Mansell Rd. and the shop is located behind the Starbucks.
THE WORKS just celebrated it’s grand opening last week and my line of Extra Long, Ready-Made Designer Shower Curtains is on display and available for purchase through their store.
I hope lots and lots of people will come and help us support this great cause!
