The twice-a-year New York International Gift Fair just wrapped up its first offering for 2011, and of course WeKnowTV was there to cover the event. This gathering brings together wholesalers and retailers from across the world and is basically a preview of the new gift items that will hit stores in a few months. The glamorously decorated booths and the numerous items on display all clamored for our attention, but here are a few pieces that really stimulated our senses!
We were glad to see the many eco-friendly offerings on display. Global warming is a very serious issue and we're hoping that all the extra effort manufacturers are putting into creating reusable products and using recyclable materials is not a fad! We were especially impressed with Paddywax, an Atlanta based Candle Company known for their chic packaging and elegant scents. Not only will thei r new line include exotic scents containing mandarin and bordeaux fig, but the candles will come packaged in recycled wine bottles, topped off with wooden caps. These are sure to be a hit with the eco-savvy fashionista who appreciates luxuriating while preserving the planet.
And for all the Project Runway fans, Korto M omolu (one of the more popular runners-up on the hit show) has teamed up with the inspirational stationery company SanLori, designing a line of notecards and candles for them. The stationery comes in designs just as fierce as the designer herself, with inspirational messages like "Hold On To Your Faith" and "Faith, Hope, Inspire, Dream, Believe" stamped inside the lid o f each box. These beautiful pieces were previewed at the Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Week in September and are a part of SanLori 's spring 2011 line. They are available now, so look for them in stationery shops and trendy boutiques near you.
And if you're into cool designer dinnerware, you should be on the look out for Ink Dish's line with innovative tattoo artist Paul Timman, tattooist for some of Hollywood's biggest stars like Ben Affleck and Pam Anderson. Timman and Ink Dish have been collaborating since 2009 and their latest offering "Tattoo Lotus" is just as fresh as their previous designs together. This company definitely proved their cutting-edge at the fair, not only with their unique designs, but with the fact that they had Timman, front and center, giving real tattoo s all day! This company sure knows how to think out of the box, and if they continue on this track, they're sure to be diners' first choice in dinnerware for a long time to come.

I appreciate your Global warming campaign, and hope your message reach in the ear of those who who are less interested for their environment.
