Prima at CHA

The Prima booth at CHA… a little Prima wonderland in the middle of a huge tradeshow full of gorgeous scrapbooking products and Prima’s definitely were some of the most gorgeous there.  I only saw 2 days of CHA and spent most of the time here, at the Prima booth.

The inside was full of amazing projects, products, chandeliers and other pretty stuff.  The outside was where we set up our demo table to show everyone the amazing Prima releases and it was also a place for Leeza Gibbons to sign her book. I chatted to Leeza a little before she was swamped by the public, she is a gorgeous, gracious lady with time to chat to anyone that takes time to chat to her.  She was genuinely enthused about her new Prima product line too, which was very cool.

It wasn’t long before we gained our demo area back from the crowds of people chatting to Leeza and then it was all on.  This is Anna (Finnabair) setting up for her project, a gorgeous headband.  I gained so much out of meeting Finn.  I was inspired by her amazing use of embellishments.  I was enthused by her “just get it done, enjoy it” attitude, and I was enthralled by long car-rides learning about Poland.  I did my best to memorise as much of the info as I could, and those that know me know that I don’t do geography or history detail very well, in the ear and out the other, but I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Poland and was able to impress my hubby with some very cool facts when I got home.  Our chats were a success, Anna, Paul was impressed.

Anna outside the Prima booth, ready to rock the crowds (and she did, seriously!)

I know this is sounding like the Finnabair-fan-show right now but I have to show you this.

Just a little fun piece that she whipped up before the show.  I know.  Boom.  Serious talent, right there.

It was a very cool few days spent with the Prima staff.  Those of you that are retailers probably deal with some of these people – each one does an amazing job and I was thrilled to be able to finally meet them in person.

Gorgeous team, rocking the emerald green – did you know it’s the 2013 Pantone colour of the year?  I know.  Rocking those trends again.
