Yesterday we had 3 appointments with our sales reps.
We started with Angie and her lines of Kameleon jewelry and the new double ring which is only available to order at the Market; more beautiful scarves and a artistic and marvelous line of greeting cards called Quilling....we'll have more to say about this card line in the future.
We stopped by to talk with Erin Smith and ask her about her trendy and edgy greeting card which we carry at Sweet Tooth.  I discovered that the person I email at Erin Smith cards is her husband Fred.  Fred and Erin still have their pizza restaurant; however Erin's cards and gift lines are on the top of the list for her.
Early lunch helped us get past the usual overcrowding in the cafeteria .  We weren't too sure that the DJ in the cafeteria was going to be a hit or the cause of a louder, noisy environment.
Then we were off to our sales rep Lisa where we ordered fabulous scarves, men's jewelry (Jeff selected all the bracelets for men...great prices and very attractive),.  We checked out some collegiate pieces...love the melamine plates for OU and OSU and finally ordered burlap baskets branded for OKLAHOMA.  We even stopped for a short chat with James R. one of our friends and once a sales rep for our store.
Meeting with Sue mid-afternoon was fun.  Watch for the new apparel in our store....totally up to date and the fake fur jacket has my name on it.  Ordered some Carson windchimes with the latest designs,some great cups and plates for Christmas and for the kids, "moving" books and a Slow Cooker recipe book from Mary Engelbreit.  Thanks to George, we had a night light candle which we are considering for the store.
Walking the halls and showrooms can bring you face to face with friends....we literally walked up to Hughla who is back with Stephanie Dawn purses and Lesley from Snow Goose who is always full of pep, smiles and loving hugs.
Today we have 2 appointments and we plan to go through some other showrooms in the Trade Mart.  The weather has been warm and overcast...looks the same this morning.
And we truly wish that the Mediterrean restaurant where we ate dinner would open up a restaurant in Tulsa.
Stay tuned....more insider news on the way,
