Brimfield Antiques Show

This May SMMS was proud to participate in the Brimfield Antiques Show.  We showcased and sold our vintage home decor with great success!  SO WHAT IS THE BRIMFIELD SHOW? Only the largest outdoor antique show in the world, held since 1959 in Brimfield, Massachusetts, with thousands of dealers attending!  Brimfield is an easy 1-hour ride west of Boston with millions attending over the course of the event. We had buyers who shipped our rewired Victorian lighting to Japan and helped our customers furnish their homes and businesses with unique period pieces. 

 

Talking with the Paskack Junior Woman's Club

This past Wednesday evening, SMMS Design was pleased to be invited to give a talk to The GFWC Paskack Junior Woman's Club, at the Park Ridge Community Center. The presentation was entitled “The Design Process: Inspiration!”, in which we discussed where inspiration comes from, how to tip it into action and specifically how to translate it in terms of interior design. Many people have creative and inspired ideas, but fail to create models or solutions from those ideas. We hope to show people how they can try out different design methods to achieve their desired goals.
The presentation ended with a great Q&A session and a take-away gift bag full of inspirational tips, was given to each lucky attendee. Creativity in design has to do with challenging and experimenting with the conventional and it usually leads to positive and inventive restyling.
