Here's what exhibitors and buyers are saying at The California Gift Show:
"As an artist displaying my work in the Beaders' Gallery, I exposed my work to many stores and clients who might never have seen my work otherwise. Because of the large amount of traffic coming through from both designers and stores, I was able to sell both my Handmade® beads and my jewelry. The demo area was an especially important part of the Beaders' Gallery. After every demo, I would hear people commenting on how much more they appreciate the work that we do."
-- Jennifer Morris, Jennifer Morris Design Studio
"I was very impressed … the whole show was very well organized, in fact we didn’t run into any unexpected problems, everything ran very smoothly. I really enjoyed participating and did really well… I do want to come back in January"
-- Karen Varela, Karen Nan Designs
"We always learn what's new in color, texture, and trends in LA, what's hot & what's not. We've picked up some of our bigger designer accounts in Los Angeles and the show is fun and personable!"
Bonnie Oldwyn, B. Toucan Inc., Exhibitor
