Alt Summit Hangover/Recap
Alt Summit completely blew my mind, my sleep schedule, and my waistband for the second consecutive year. There were picturesque views from the Grand America Hotel.
Goodie pails for one and all, filled to the brim with treats from the Spoon Sisters, Just Shorn, and Method (among others).
Lots of interesting panels with lovely ladies. (Ahem.)
Not to mention design camp sessions with focuses such as calligraphy, photography, and screenprinting.
Three course keynote lunches with pretty letterpressed menus by Smock.
HP Lounge
Honda Lounge
Lovely lounges were full of conference goers, beverages, and treats between sessions.
Then there were the unexpected freebies, like these from Just Shorn and Etsy.
And the hosted dinners and parties.
I can’t forget to mention DJ Spooky, who spoke (incredibly eloquently) at Friday’s keynote lunch and had to turn down scads of marriage proposals from my table alone.
Everyone became quite adept at striking a pose for the camera.
The highlight of Alt, for me, was listening to Swiss-Miss’s closing keynote. More specifically when I introduced myself to her afterward and she knew of both me and my blog. My only honest to goodness starstruck moment.
And I would be remiss not to mention the libations. Because there were lots at the ready.
I mean I look like I had fun, right? Cause I’m totally counting down the days until the next Alt Summit already. You should be, too, so you can be there.
Because I suck at remembering to take photos “in the moment” these are all from the Alt Summit flickr stream. With the exception of the first, which is from the HP flickr stream and the last, which is from the Kate Spade photobooth.
