New York Gift Show and back. Piece of cake. I was deliriously happy weaving through the aisles, oohing and aahing. I found enough goodies to totally transform Out of Hand over the next two months.
What stood out to me are the “uplifting” imprints on anything that can be imprinted-especially jewelry. I avoided silver; the price increase was a shock I couldn’t adjust to. But I adored the leather bracelets that appealed to my “old hippie” nature. I chose wall plaques, eye glass cases, photo albums, etc. etc…
I was very cautious what works of wisdom I selected. There was one vendor who couldn’t accept that I didn’t want Grandma….. on anything. I’ll bet it shows up in the shipment anyway. My criterion was “I had to believe it to conceive it”. Things like “What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” are not on my inspirational radar.
I have definitely converted to a NYIGS patron and can’t wait until the end of January to return. It was the most fun I can remember. Maybe I’ll imprint that on something.
