While I was out today I went to check out the Traveling Trunk Boutique.
This show was held at a home that was for sale in the Harvard/Yale area of Salt Lake. I got to the show about 2:30 on the first day of the show. When I was talking with the hostesses of the show they told me that they were already sold out of many of there items. They seem to have a very strong following and the veterans of their shows get there early and stock up on the items that they want. So get there early.
With the show being in an empty home they were able to spread items throughout the entire home. I am sure that the realtor is hoping all the foot traffic will also sell the house. They had items on three levels. With all the space it made it very easy to see everything that was available. Although the home had some interesting elements that made going through a little difficult. The stairs in the home were quite treacherous. I personally saw 2 people tumble. Luckily nothing serious. Also in the kitchen where they had checkout the back door was down a few stairs and the area was open. I was just waiting for someone to not see that it was there and fall in.
I was impressed with the vendors that they had at the show. One of my favorite parts of this show were all the books they had for sale. They had a wide variety of cookbooks and holiday books along with a huge selection of miscellaneous books. I have seen books at other shows but it is usually a selection of children's books but this was something completely different with books for all ages.
Overall the show had a great group vendors and minus the crazy elements of the house was a great space to showcase the vendors items. I would recommend getting to the show right when it starts so you don't miss out on any items.
The show continues through Saturday open from 9 am to 6 pm. Central checkout accepts cash, check, and credit card with the exception of american express.
