CHA!

Hello friends

On the other side of the world CHA has been taking place,
a huge event in the crafting world.
Spellbinders start to prepare for this months and months in advance and
when I was visiting them in Phoenix I was able to see some of the preparations 
for their booth.  Everything gets planned, built, painted and set up..then 
dismantled and packed to be shipped to LA for the show.
Huge, huge wooden containers on lorries!

If you are not on Facebook you may not have seen the photos of the 
Spellbinders booth/stand so here it is...

 This area shows Gilded Life.
 On the right hand side Celebra'tions line.

Each shelving area here is made from an old front door! 
Not surprisingly, Spellbinders won peoples choice best booth/stand!

Lots of new goodies were revealed at the show and I will be sharing 
them with you here very soon.

Take care friends - back tomorrow for Tuesday Tip/Technique.

  3. Good morning Christine,
    I saw the photos on Facebook, wow they really do go to town, don't they? I wonder how much it costs them?
    The sneak peak I am most excited about was the new Platinum cutting machine, looks fab, how long do we have to wait and is it going to be super expensive? It looks really sturdy and is a totally different set up to the Grand Calibur. How exciting!!! You must be like a 'cat on hot bricks' wanting to show us all the secrets!
    Huge hugs

  11. Hi. Christine. The Spellbinders stand looks amazing. Love the idea of a door as a shelving unit. Only have to secure the door to the wall and then the shelves can be easily re-positioned thus avoiding making lots of holes in a wall. Anne x

  13. Hi Christine
    Wow, their stand looks fabulous. Wouldn't it be lovely if we could visit as well. I'd love to see what was coming along. I've see the new cutting machine, but I'm at a loss to understand why they're bringing this out when they've only just introduced the new Teal Grand Caliber.

  14. Looks amazing. One thing I've never been sure of is whether the CHA event is purely a 'trade' show or open to the public. If the latter I might just arrange myself a holiday in LA one year to coincide :)

  16. Hi Christine
    The Spellbinder's stands look amazing. Like Jean Z I would love to visit. I have been watching the shows on Create and Craft but haven't been able to watch the Spellbinder's show. I did have a sneaky peak on their website and the new dies look fabulous. I am sitting on my hands whilst my bank balance recovers from Christmas and the sales.
    Take care
