Would you be interested in a day-long Meet & Greet

Myself and Shirley at Housepitality Designs
are in the very early stages of putting together
such an event in Raleigh, NC.

We have even considered making it a

Did you attend Haven recently?
My idea is a MUCH smaller scale event but with similar results.
We could even put together a small committee to start
planning our own mini NC “Haven” in the future.

I will be looking into hotel accommodations, because
although I only live a few hours from Raleigh,
I’m not going to want to drive home late at night.

Wish I lived closer, I’d love to attend. But it would be about 7-8 hour drive (or more) so unfortunately I’ll have to pass.
My mom is from a little town near Salisbury, N.C. so we have lots of roots in that part of the country, in fact, her 2nd cousin is Elizabeth Dole!
Hope your plans work out, sounds like a lot of fun.

Yes, yes, yes! Count me in! I’m always happy to shop, but it’s hard to get to know people that way. Maybe a combo of some sort of sessions and shopping??? I would love to be a part of the “commitee”. I’ll go ahead and start spreading the word!

Thanks for organizing this. I might be able to attend depending on the dates. I have a lot of travel between now and Labor Day. But, keep me in the loop ;-).

OMG!!! I am a NC blogger LOL
View CommentI have always wanted to attent a blogger thingy. I don’t live far from Raleigh either. If the dates are good, I would LOVE to attend!

I would love to be involved! This is a great idea and I’m in the Raleigh area so I could help out as much as needed. Since I’m relatively new to the area, it would be great to meet some more local bloggers. I’ll put the word out as much as I can too!

We talked about this at Haven, I was sitting next to you at the Q & A. I’m very excited about this. I live in Pinehurst so I’m only about an hour away from Raleigh.
I would love to attend a session on “fixing my blog” I need help with the layout, add a link party, how to install widgets & plugins, etc. Just general things I “should” know how to do on my own and not depend on and pay a techy guy.
Let me how I can help!!!!

Barb: Suzy passed your email on to me…and yes, I would definitely be interested! I’m in Pittsboro, so almost anywhere is fine.How about in October/November some time?
View CommentI would think all sorts of social media workshops and “classes” would be helpful.
I’ll pass this on to several others here in the Triangle. Thanks!

Only two hours from Raleigh, daughter goes to school at Meredith! If she is back in school, I could make it a duel purpose trip! 🙂 Would love to go and meet everyone in person! Keep us posted!!! Sounds like much fun! You know what might be fun, a trip with a junkin expert to the flea market. There is also a cool shop that refinshes furniture in a really neat funky unique way, can’t remember the name right off, but it’s off of Capital Blvd I think. The owners might be an option for a seminar if you chose to go that route. Okay ….didn’t mean to take over the event, just excited and thinking off the top of my head! Can’t wait to hear more! 🙂

Would love to meet fellow NC bloggers! Count me in!
View CommentLynn@ The Vintage Nest says
Have been hoping for a Southern event like this for a long time. I am near Richmond. There is talk of a Vintage Market here October 13 & 14th date but any other date would be great right now. Thank you for working on a venture like this. Seminars would be so helpful and a shopping event would be fabulous too. I would love to be kept in the loop of any updates. xo
