San Francisco Design Blogger Meet-Up

Last Thursday about 25 design bloggers from all over the San Francisco Bay Area and beyond {way beyond!} gathered for a very fun evening. Malka of Closet Innovations opened the doors of her lovely showroom in the San Francisco Design Center and hosted the event. Thank you Malka!

The showroom features some beautiful and highly functional custom cabinetry options to help keep every inch of a home organized. Chic Shelf Paper sponsored the wine at the event and had several of their beautiful custom printed shelf liners on display {see below}. Such a lovely way to finish off a linen drawer!

Yofi, Malka’s sweet poodle also made an appearance and had her nails freshly painted for the event!

The highlight of the evening of course was meeting all the bloggers. I was expecting most of the attendees to be from the San Francisco area, but a handful traveled great distances and happened to be visiting at the time. Natasha came in from Tahoe {found out we had our wedding receptions at the same location – and the same florist!}, Courtney {was in the city to celebrate her 7th wedding anniversary – congrats!} was in from Southern California, Michelle {& her sister} came in from Atlanta and Erica {taking a much needed girly get-a-way with a friend – she has 5 sons} was in from Canada.

But the award for traveling the most distance goes to Mariska from the Netherlands {she too was on vacation}. Mariska is pictured above with Malka at the event.  

I brought my camera with the intention of taking lots of pictures, but failed. So, I am stealing some from Courtney. He was the only male that attended and he has a fun post about being a rooster amongst all of the hens. I did however manage to take this cute shot above of Kate, Courtney and Michelle on a Murphy Bed that was in the showroom.

I also wanted to thank Michaela. Not only is she the best intern in the world, but she also helped out with this event. Big hug Michaela! Thanks for taking this picture too!

We had a great time and want to plan another meet-up this fall. Stay tuned!
