Most of the trade shows are on the strip – but how fun is it to shuttle/uber/taxi to downtown Vegas for the Las Vegas Market?  Not that fun for me at first because there was no parking (I drove) so I had to, GOD FORBID, park at the Golden Nugget with my frequent gambler card as validation for the free parking…actually this was all just a good excuse for me to check out Fremont Street after the show and the world famous CADILLAC Bar…

So on to the Market which is an incredible display of West Coast Furniture, home decor and gift lines that you can “touch, feel and explore” according to the CEO of International Market Centers, Bob Maricich.  I attended last year’s market and was amazed at the miles  and miles of beautiful interiors that make me want to own a huge house again and move out of this furnished apartment!  Of course I love the CASH AND CARRY part of the pavilion and ended up carting away bagfuls of jewelry, purses, and Chachkies!
