It was Great to be Back in High Point! The energy in the air made this High Point Market something special. So good to see old friends and meet new ones. Who can deny it's always the people that make the market so memorable! Our new space, in Salon at G-6001S, gave us lots of room to stretch out and proudly display our most exciting collections! From bedding to scarves, from birds to dragons, from Chinoiserie to Grand Millenial, there was something for everyone in our booth! Come take a look ... Pillow Pairs with Solid Velvets Our decorative pillows were again well received. This time, we made the decision process a bit easier, taking our paired pillows and matching them with a solid velvet pillow. This season's collections were filled with influences of Chinoiserie, with dragons, and lions and parrots roaming the shelves. Our colorful jewel toned motifs captured the attention of Style Spotters on the lookout! Captured by Style Spotters! Such a thrill to meet Lisa Brown and share some more about the story of Poetic Pillow. Our passion for art history has inspired a world of whimsy in textiles! We were delighted to share with Lisa and her group a unique perspective in home decor, one that embraces new and old. These treasures from far and near bring a new energy and excitement to any living space. Gladys shows off our Guardi Bouquet Scarf New to market were a collection of silk charmeuse scarves. Made in Canada, of 100% silk charmeuse. Thanks to Gladys for modeling our Guardi Bouquet scarf! Most popular was our Midnight Dragon scarf, with detailed graphical edging. These were extra large at 50x50 and many will find uses that include wraps, shawls, and even a table cloth. Our parrot scarf has even been used as wall art! We further expanded our line of duvet ensembles this market. A Duvet Ensemble makes a great Mother's Day Gift! Each duvet ensemble includes a duvet cover and two matching pillowcases. Inspired by fine works of art, our Dutch floral botanical prints were particularly well received. The Eelkema Majestic and Guardi Bouquet Duvet Ensembles were quite popular. The 7-piece Eelkema Majestic King Duvet Set It's the King of the duvets! Any of our King duvet ensembles is available as a 7-piece duvet set. See the matching Euro shams in the background? It's a veritable bedscape set! King sized duvet sets include one duvet cover, two matching pillowcases, three Euro velvet shams and one kidney toss pillow. IFDA Finalist: Dragons on Turquoise At this market, we were so honored to be nominated by designer David Santiago for the Best in Soft Goods category by the IFDA (International Furnishings and Design Association). His enthusiasm was contagious and really made our market that much more special.
We are already thinking about next market. It was so wonderful to reconnect! For those of you who couldn't make it, we will be sharing a video, currently being edited, with highlights from market. At Poetic Pillow, we strive to be the calm cornerstone of your business. Our focus is on designing and making beautiful products that build businesses. Consistency is vital to us in our products and our business model. Even with the rapid changes happening in the world today, we've been attempting to keep our pricing as consistent as possible. However, we've gotten to a point where the cost of operating is rising too much for us to continue absorbing the extra cost. In the coming weeks, we will be sharing with you our updated pricing and an updated catalog. New prices will go into effect on June 1, 2022.

Greetings from the show! It's been such a joy to see everyone again -- old friends, new faces. This time, we introduced a stimulating collection of bed scarves. Here are some of our favorites! We want to give you every opportunity to Live Poetically! Once again, here's our booth address. High Point Market Suites at Market Square G-6001S Salon Ground Saturday, April 2nd, thru Wednesday, April 6th, 2022 Accepting Appointments Van Gogh and Japan This bed scarf conjures the Eastern influences depicted in the almond blossoms and branches. Van Gogh immersed himself in Japanese art and culture. He painted this still life while living in Arles in 1888, which Van Gogh called "the Japan of the South". Vincent Van Gogh's brother and life-long friend Theo provided him with his strongest financial and emotional support. He painted this for Theo's son, also named Vincent. Van Gogh's use of subtly vivid colors and daring strokes evoke contradictions -- peaceful but not at rest. Find inspiration in Van Gogh's vision and bring whimsy and a pop of color into your surroundings. Consider pairing it with matching lumbar as shown above. The Gleam of Guardi Francesco Guardi's typically spirited brush strokes glisten and glow in this luminescent bouquet. This bed scarf adds a delightfully lively tone to any bedroom space. All our bed scarves are machine washable in cold water, gentle cycle. Tumble dry low heat or hang dry. It's easy to maintain the brilliance of this lovely piece of art. There's no one like Renoir Pierre-Auguste Renoir's flowers seem slightly to merge with one another in this stunning new bed scarf. His warm, soulful impressionism combines diffuse brushstrokes with super-saturated hues. Classmate of Van Gogh and Alfred Sisley, Renoir was thrust into a cauldron of Impressionist creativity. It was also a time of political conflict and intrigue. During the Paris Commune of 1871, in the wrong place at the wrong time, young Renoir was painting by the Seine when some Communards thought he was a spy. He was nearly thrown into the river, when the Commune leader recognized Renoir as the man who had protected him some time before. All of our bed scarves are available in both King size, 25" x 102", and Queen, 25" x 90". Let Your Bedroom Space Blossom In peachy hues of coral and pink, peonies spring alive in our bed scarves inspired by the Qing dynasty artist Yun Shouping. In each design, the dreamy patterns of fully blooming peonies and delicate foliage suggest a change of seasons. It's no surprise that Yun Shouping is said to have mastered the Three Perfections (poetry, calligraphy, and painting). All of our bed scarves are digitally printed in high resolution upon satin. Thrill to the work of Ogawa Kazumasa Creme azaleas, supple and animated, sway in the wind on a clear blue day. This design is the perfect choice to "reset" any bedroom decor. It was inspired by the pioneer photo mechanical printer Ogawa Kazumasa. Every bed scarf was designed and produced in California. One of our Most Popular Designs See how the roses shine joyously in this still life by Ferenc Olgyay. The depiction seems three dimensional. What a lovely, restful way to spend the night! Ferenc Olgyay was a guest member of the Hungarian artist colony that came about after the formation of the Arts Association of Szolnok in 1901. Wrap Yourself in Comoléra's Bouquet Discover Mélanie de Comoléra. Crisp lines, vibrant hues: The attention to detail is breaktaking. She is best known for her works on porcelain, but we love the brilliant sense of drama in her copy of a still life by Van Huysum. The ravishing detail in this work, especially when paired with the matching lumbar pillow, brings forth an exuberant display without peer. Infinitely Lovely Shades of Green A green oak tree quivers with life in this water color painting originally made by the Dutch artist George Andries Roth (1809 - 1887). Feel the sublime comforts of greens in the mist. One can almost hear the slight crackles of the sturdy branches in the fresh autumn breeze. This painting currently resides in the Rijksmuseum collection of fine arts. Each bed scarf is made to order one at a time. Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. Come join in the fun! We have so many more designs to show you! Here's how to find us: High Point Market
Suites at Market Square G-6001S Salon Ground Saturday, April 2nd, thru Wednesday, April 6th, 2022 Accepting Appointments Today is the final day! We love our new showroom space and are honored to be part of the reunion that is High Point Market. We are proud and thrilled to announce our new collection of bed scarves! Everyone is discovering the many ways a stunning bed scarf can bring a whole new flavor to a bedroom space. So come join us on this last day. We've already met with many of you. Thank you for all your stimulating suggestions! Here's where you can find us. High Point Market Suites at Market Square G-6001S Salon Ground Saturday, April 2nd, thru Wednesday, April 6th, 2022 Accepting Appointments Find a New Standard of Beauty Claude Monet didn't intend to start Impressionism, the movement named after one of his early paintings. But he yearned to start a revolution, creating new standards of beauty in conventional subjects. How better to bring poetry to the bedroom than with our Monet Blue Fog bed scarf? Printed beautifully on poly sateen. Expand Your Horizons through Monet's Garden In his teens, Monet studied at the Académie Suisse, where Auguste Renoir was a classmate. A key influence, Eugène Boudin, introduced him to painting en plein air (outdoors). With Monet Honey Bed Scarf as an accent, we feel the crisp breeze of the French countryside. All our bed scarves are machine washable in cold, gentle cycle, and will effortlessly hang dry. Lilac Bed Scarf and matching Lilac Lumbar Colors you can almost taste: amethyst, lavender, periwinkle. Iris. Lilac. Enjoy a deeper sleep and a more profound refresh. The Water Lilies nurture our dreams and calm our spirit. Eventually, Monet painted almost exclusively from nature, in his own garden, capturing every shimmer of dawn, every hue of afternoon and shadow of dusk. Our printing process faithfully reproduces every subtlety and nuance. Good Morning, Monsieur Monet! Monet no longer depicted the boundaries of the water, liberating and unmooring our perspective. The lily pads seem to set sail on an infinite expanse, the colors dance with new variety, our space inspires new vision and new peace. Our Monet bed scarf collection continues to grow. Every variety is available in King and Queen sizes, and are designed and made in California. We're here. Come join us! Here's how to find us. High Point Market
