This is just so exciting!
Check out the list of artists attending the
Down East Doll Show and Conference
to be held in Greenville NC June 2012!
CALLING all COLLECTORS to this show! This show is JUST for YOU!
What makes this show so special? Why is it even more special and exciting than IDEX?
Well, IDEX is a trade show, designed mostly for those in the retail business to place their orders for the current year's supply in their shops. Technically, collectors are not permitted to purchase from the show tables until closing on Sunday, and it's a three day show.
There are lot's of tables and booths at IDEX but many of them are filled with manufactured dolls, toys, bears and things for the retail stores.
The Down East show is NOT a trade show and collectors may purchase direct from the artists and take their baby with them at that moment.
There won't be any of the manufactured items that IDEX has~just artist babies, babies, babies! Right now, 34 tables and 8 booths FULL of BABIES!
There will be reborns, one-of-a-kind babies, resin and silicone babies.
There will be a reborn doll contest AND a OOAK doll contest! Collectors will be able to cast their votes for the People's Choice babies.
And this show runs from 10 am to 7 pm on Friday and Saturday, so those who can't be there until after 5 will still have time to browse the convention center for that perfect baby.
As a collector myself, I am excited!
