Our Adventure at the Dallas Trade Market, What we saw, and our Travel Woes

This week, we discuss going to a trade market in Dallas, Texas and how we approached our buying. Returning home was another story...delay after delay as the country was shutting down because of winter storms!

Monahan papers booth looked like heaven. I also saw a glimpse of a swan, I have started a collection of swans!

[@ellenjgoods]

Yes it did!!!

[@tanyacordes5916]

I had a gift shop for 10 years and would go to the Dallas Trade Market two or three times a year. I remember how overwhelmed I was the very first time I was there! My mother would go with me, usually, & we had a good time working together. I really miss those days! It was good to see Ms. M on the other side of the camera (I didn’t want to spell her name wrong).

[@ellenjgoods]

So you know exactly what it is like! So glad you have those wonderful memories with your Mother!

[@rebeccabirdsong5765]

The video at the Dallas gift show was amazing, but oh my gosh its huge, I would have been so overwhelmed and excited. I love that all your videos are like your visiting with a friend, so relaxed and genuine. Thank you for sharing. I should say I discovered your channel yesterday, and I have been binge watching.😊😊😊

[@ellenjgoods]

Welcome, welcome! We are thrilled that you found us and hope to see you here often!

[@jansouthern]

I can't wait to see the Monahan Papers items you will have in the store. If you have additional footage of the Monahan items in Dallas, please put those online, too. I can't get enough of those things! LOVE IT!

[@ellenjgoods]

Will do! We are waiting for our shipments to arrive! It’s very exciting 💓

[@jaynebrown693]

Talk about overwhelming place !!! Oh my goodness! Those Gingerbread Houses and ribbon colors with them !!!! Rich looking! I was worried about you girls getting back. Each day got worse for weather reports. What a looooong drive from Albany to Medina ! Ugh!!!! But at least you were in New York and almost home ! Can’t wait to see what you have coming next !!!! WELCOME HOME 🥰🥰

[@ellenjgoods]

Loved this video. We didn't get as much snow but we had lots of ice. I almost miss that Buffalo snow. I love winter. Dallas looked fantastic. So much more organized than Atlanta. Missed you both while I've been shut in. Can't wait to see your goodies. Hugs.

My hometown Albion! All snowed up. I love Lake O when it starts to freeze over. I'm literally so bummed when we have a "big" snow forecast here in Southern Maine. Always a dud!! "What are you people talking about- this is a Spring day back home!". 😂

[@ellenjgoods]

🤣🤣🤣
