2015 Spring Atlanta Home Show

Sunday, March 22, 2015

Want to make some home improvements? Well you should have checked out the 37th annual Spring Atlanta Home Show at the Cobb Galleria Centre over the weekend. With well over 300 exhibitors dealing with everything from windows, doors, kitchen, bath, patio, landscaping, gardening, security, siding, painting, lighting and anything else under the sun, the home show saw thousands of people come through the doors of the exhibit hall over three days.

The aisles were crowded as attendees looked at remodeling ideas and options for every room of a home. There were also seminars to help guide them through the process of upgrading a house. Being a fairly new home owner myself I really enjoyed getting ideas for things to do to my own home. The thing that I found most intriguing was a false bookshelf that swung out to reveal a safe or an entrance to another room. As crazy as it sounds I think it would be super cool to have a secret room a la Scooby Doo.
