CHA ready or not!

January 26, 2012 by

Hello CHA!  (Craft & Hobby Association-Winter Conference & Trade Show)

CHA (pronounced C-H-A, not like cha-cha-cha) is like the best event  for crafters since all of your favorite manufacturers are there.  CHA is held twice a year, I have been to a few summer shows but this will be my first trip to the winter show.  The summer show is in Chicago and the Winter Show is in California.   Lucky me… I live in Wisconsin, so going to Anaheim, California for anything in January is awesome.
 CHA is the  place to be for buyers, independent craft stores, on-line stores, bloggers/websites, and media looking for the newest and best  in crafting.  One of the perks of attending CHA is that you will also have a chance to meet some of your on-line crafting friends.  You will also meet many of the design team members, store owners, “celebrity” crafters (that you are obsessed with) and you will even make new friends.
Manufacturers bring their newest designs, designers are there giving you demos, the booths are amazing to look at, the amount of information is overwhelming, but worth it~  You stand and walk pretty much all day/night.  If you attend a workshop, seminar, or get in on a make n take.. that is pretty much the only time you sit.
I am going to seminars from 8:30 a.m to 9:00 p.m on Saturday, there is a small  break in there somewhere & I will go to 2 workshops somewhere in there too.. but I like to take in as many business related seminars as possible.    Sunday I will attend an event w/ EK Success,  be on the show room floor drooling over all the products I want, and meeting up with my friend Rina who is from California.   Good Times~ Monday will be another day of  planning out my upcoming classes, trying to decide what I want to buy, and meeting a few new people.  I also have a few more events to check out that day & plan to meet Tori Spelling in the afternoon.
Sounds like fun right?  Well I did leave out some good stuff but I want to save some surprises.  I will post pictures on my facebook page so make sure you follow  scrap it girl on facebook.   I will be back with a new post next week~
