COCOCOZY IN NEW YORK!

All photos in this post by Coco of COCOCOZY

Hi all!

I am here!  We did it!  Woot woot.  The COCOCOZY booth is up and running at the phenomenal New York International Gift Fair.  Some of the biggest names in home furnishings and design are here and so is COCOCOZY for the second time.

Am a bit exhausted this morning. Exhausted but happy.  We got in early Friday morning and hit the ground running setting up the booth (fab assistant KS is with me (she loves pink for some reason)).  We worked about 15 hours on Friday getting the bones of our booth together and styling it out.  Then on Saturday we spent the better part of the day putting together all of the finishing touches, working on printed materials, and making last minute runs to the office supply store and my home away from home, the Container Store.

One of my friends came by the booth yesterday and said "So "they" set this all up for you?"  I looked at her and thought "Wouldn't it be nice if "they" did...!".  Nope...what you learn as a new business owner is that elbow grease is abundant and the phrase "short cuts" definitely can't be in your vocabulary.

Anyhoo...here is the COCOCOZY textile collection in our NY booth at the Javits Center.  If you are in town, come by to say hi!

New cotton collection COCOCOZY pillows! (above and below)


New black label candles - this one is "Coco's Flower" and smells like wonderful lavender.  Love it!

New throw patterns and colors. (above)

New colorways for the classic linen collection on the shelves. (above)



The fair is about to start again.  I'll share images of all of the process it took to get here (in case that might interest you).  Nice sweet sales rep JG is also in the booth with us.  I have an adorable team of girls working with me this go around and I am so thrilled.

Happy happy Monday!!

Loved meeting you yesterday. Seeing everything in person was amazing, your throws are my new favorite! Good luck to you and the girls with the rest of the show!

Coco, your section is so perfect in every way! Very classic and uncluttered. It really showcases all of your great pieces!

By the way that pagoda pattern; love it in both the brown and blue!

Beautiful display. I never seem to make it to the NY show. Do you show at other markets as well? Have a feeling we'll be crossing paths before long.
best to you and your beautiful products.

YOu've come a long way, Coco. I'm a dude and I'm totally diggin' your taste. Keep em coming.

This is pretty amazing and you should be very proud of yourself.

I am a jewelry designer, and I know where you have to be in your business money-wise, product-wise, etc to be prepared or ready to show at a place like the New York International Gift Fair. So bravo!
