Went with my sis and met sparklepuppies and West Paces there last year -- much fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenannediva Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Bev and Ken deserve all the publicity they can get. When we visited the shop they were so super nice and we really enjoyed spending several hours with them Ken gave hubby a complete tour of his workshop, not that hubby is into any kind of workshop but did enjoy the tour. On a few occasions Bev has been so helpful in locating a particular mini for me that I had been unable to find after searching high and low. Congrats Miniature Designs and thanks for being exceptional shop owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shareb Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 That is awesome! Well done them! I'm really hoping to get to some mini shops when we're over on holiday next year. Hubby and I have spent many, many moons in the US - all over the place. So we're bringing friends who have never been before and we're hoping to get to a few places we've never been. Once I know where we're going I'll have to come on and ask what's around!! Meantime, enjoy the visit Kathie!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Valerie, you are so right. Bev and Ken are the best! They really take the time to spend and learn about their customers. I hope to watch the broadcast live, but I have it set to record as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 I'm also recording it so I can run it for NJ when she's here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Bev did so good, I was so proud for her! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I just watched the interview on the WAGA website. OUTSTANDING! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 If anyone else goes to watch it, the two segments were at approximately 8:40 and 9:40. The first hour I had I think two teasers, and the second hour I only saw one, although I may have just missed second teaser. 12 days until the mini show!

KathieB Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 Silly me recorded the two hour-long program segments separately. I watched the first interview, figured that was all there was, and erased the second segment without watching. Oh, well. They did make nice mention of the show in the bit I saw.

sparklepuppies Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Awwww.... Boo. Maybe it will be posted somewhere, I'll start looking for it. I don't know how to grab my recording… I'm lucky I recorded it and then was able to watch it again. This was the first time ever I've recorded a show on DVR! Here's the link to the news site with an article and one of the interviews. I'm just so proud for Bev. http://www.fox5atlanta.com/good-day/atlanta-miniature-society-prepares-for-big-show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
