Recently, we shared the news with you that our Creationeers were feverishly working to get ready for #IHHS2016, the major housewares industry trade show.

This included final touches on products and packaging for our friends at the Jokari corporation and Love Cooking Company who both had large booth setups at the show.

Well, all of that hard work paid off as innovative Inventionland-designed and packaged products were showcased at both the Jokari corporation and Love Cooking Company booths!

All of our Creationeers came together to reach one common goal – to knock it out of the park at IHHS 2016. It’s safe to say that they definitely met and exceeded their goal.

But, beyond having our Inventionland-designed products on display at IHHS 2016 – an event that allows exhibitors to showcase their innovation and gives buyers the chance to discover trends, connecting both parties to the industry in order to do business – we were able to throw some added fun into the mix, too!

In fact, our founder and CEO Mr. George Davison was in on the fun at the show, trooping through and awakening to all things housewares.

The Jokari booth was buzzing with excitement as well as show-goers stopped to chat and view new items, from storage and organization products to handy household gadgets; again, many of which were Inventionland-designed!

That’s right! Paula Deen spent some time at the Jokari booth on Sunday, March 6^th to share her Southern charm, along with new solutions for storage and organization designed by Inventionland with style and functionality in mind for Jokari’s Paula Deen Everyday collection.

Founder and CEO Mr. Davison not only got to spend time with Deen at Jokari’s booth, but also with leading wedding and entertaining expert, David Tutera, who made an appearance at Love Cooking Company’s booth.

From prototypes to photography and packaging, to actual product development and tradeshow booth design, our Inventionland Creationeers’  hard work definitely paid off as we can celebrate another successful International Home + Housewares Show! Here’s to IHHS 2016!

There are always projects keeping designers, engineers, prototype builders and other busy bees buzzing at Inventionland. When various trade shows come around, like we mentioned in a recent blog post, things do really get kicked into high gear!

Today might be Leap Day, but it also kicks off what we may deem as International Home + Housewares Show-hype week! That’s right. The International Housewares Association (IHA) kicks off their largest housewares industry trade show this Saturday, March 5^th in Chicago and our friends at Jokari/US, Inc. and Love Cooking Company will be there showcasing all of their most innovative products – many of which were Inventionland-designed and packaged!

Designer Tess and Michael, Special Operations and photographer, were recently busy in the studio taking photos for Jokari product packaging.

Tess not only directed the shoot, but also stepped in to model the ease of use for the products as needed for a few in-use shots.

This wasn’t Tess’ first time in the spotlight. Here, you’ll see her demonstrating the Quick Cut, another product that’s headed to the housewares show.

Every unique Inventionland set within our 61,000 square-foot invention factory has been buzzing with excitement in preparation for the IHA Show. Industrial Designer Sarah took a moment to use the embroidery machine in Inventionland’s Crafty Cottage while Seamstress Bev kept busy at her sewing station.

Today, we mark International Home + Housewares week that begins on Saturday! Here’s to IHHS 2016!
