The Summer LA Gift & Home Market also showed a noticeable uptick in the number of retailers visiting CMC for the first time, as well as buyers returning to the Gift & Home showrooms after a long absence. "We haven't been to CMC in years, but we decided to check it out for the July Market. We were extremely delighted with what we found -- great showrooms, wonderful amenities, easy parking, and an abundance of terrific new resources. We will definitely be back in January 2015," enthused Oceanside, CA retailer Pam Chambers, co-owner of Karlene Gifts. Among the many new product highlights at the Summer LA Gift & Home Market at the CMC: Melrose International's significantly expanded collection of brand new home and garden décor as well as "Only in California" exclusive products including Impromptu, a vivid "Day of the Dead" inspired selection of wall décor and textiles designed by veteran retailer Barbara Zizi; Dale Tiffany's luminescent ensemble of contemporary art glass lamps (shown at Bridgeport Gallery), Joy to the World's exquisite collection of hand-painted, bridal-themed ornaments, and Home & Body's vintage-looking lineup of personal care products (shown at Rosalie & Friends).
