Las Vegas Market is Buzzing with Social Sharing as Winter 2013 Market Week Kicks Off

Las Vegas Market and World Market Center Las Vegas will be buzzing with social sharing this week, as attendees take to Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram to share their at-show experiences and most memorable moments with the home furnishings and gift industry. From timely new products pins to compelling Facebook giveaways and Instagrams of this season’s hottest trends, Las Vegas Market is buzzing. Las Vegas Market—today’s total marketplace for home furnishings industry professionals and interior designers—runs today through February 1, 2013.

Las Vegas Market’s FIRST LOOK brand returns this winter with its Ready Your Repin rally for “Likes” and “Repins.” Follow the FIRST LOOK 2013 Furniture, Accents and Gifts boards, and you’ll receive timely updates about new product introductions each day of market. The product pin on each 2013 board that earns the most Likes and Repins will be announced shortly after the show. Plus, the winning products will be presented in a special showcase at summer market, July 29-Aug. 2.

The top-pinned products from Summer 2012 Las Vegas Market—Le Poeme chair from Liora Manné/Trans-Ocean, Dolomite Owl table lamp from Creative Co-Op, and the Vintage Chic Collection by Midwest-CBK—will be on display Jan. 28- Feb. 1 in the FIRST LOOK Honeycomb display, which is located in the lobby of Building B.

Meanwhile, share feedback via the Houzz.com-powered Road to Emerald iPad kiosks, which will greet attendees at the Road to Emerald product display in the lobby of Building C, and you’ll be entered in a drawing to win a free iPad.

To hear the latest trends from top designers and exhibitors or to join in on the conversation, make sure you’re connected to Las Vegas Market’s social media family. Tag all of your tweets and Instagrams with the official Las Vegas Market hashtags, #LVMkt and #RoadtoEmerald.
