Last week, we travelled to the CGTA to see what was new in the world of retail and gifts.
The fall CGTA is held at both the Convention Centre and the International Centre, near the Toronto airport. It is impossible to look at everything in one day, even speedwalking through the aisles!
As I looked at all the wonderful wares, I was overcome with a desire to open my own little boutique, just so I could buy stuff at distributor pricing. The logic is as follows: I open a little cafe featuring my baking and lots of interesting items. It would be filled with delightful knicknacks and decorated with other goodies found at the show (I see a pretty lighted tree, some funky mirrors, hanging lights and awesome tables and chairs. The background and counters will be a dark wood with lots of colourful accessories to brighten the area). Off to the side, we will have a showroom for Simcoe North. This idea could be the best of all worlds!
But I digress. Back to the world of supplying these wonderful ventures with everything retailers need to display and package their wares.
I look forward to hearing about your own store decorating ideas!
