St. Augustine, Fla. —

Youth furnishings veterans California Kids, Creative Images, Fun Rugs, One World and My Room will debut a new joint showroom at the January Atlanta Gift & Accessory Market.

'The Kids Market' concept showcases products from all five companies in a cross-merchandised setting the suppliers describe as “a one-stop shop for youth.”

The boutique showroom on the 10th Floor of Building No. 1 will feature top-of-bed textiles by California Kids of San Carlos, Calif., as well as furniture, bedding, lamps, rugs, wall décor and accent pieces.

“Atlanta is an important market for our retailers and designers,” said Joy Phillips, president of Creative Images, based in St. Augustine, Fla., “and we all felt we needed to be there for them. High Point is not enough any more.”
