New York, New York

This week I spent a few days in New York City attending the Stationary Show and collection inspiration elsewhere as well. Here are some pics from the trip.
Dinner at Virgils with Lauren, Paula, Kristina and Suzanne on the night of our arrival. Our group had to split between 2 tables, so this is only half the group. Train Wreck Fries were awesome.



Typical scenery:

These hydrangeas were the largest I've ever seen! And they were just potted on a front porch!


What's NYC without the interesting people? I call this guy "cheetah man." Honest to goodness that's his real hair, dyed with a cheetah pattern! Who does that?!

I want this chair, along with many other things I saw at Lee's:


Purl--they have a knitting store and fabric store. Much smaller than I expected, but very tidy and quaint.
Other fun things from the trip include seeing Spamalot the musical, and seeing Becki Newton (Amanda) and Michael Urie (Mark) from Ugly Betty (we walked right by them on our way to the musical). She's a tiny little thing.
