The Sugar Land Home and Garden Show is returning to the Stafford Centre, Saturday and Sunday, January 26 and 27, 2013, for its third year of bringing the newest products, technology and ideas for the home. However, there are many more reasons to mark your calendars now, for this must-attend event.

Experts Offer Valuable Tips
“Many people think they can find whatever they need on the Internet, and there is a lot of information. But, there is no replacement for knowledge and expertise to know what to do or how to use that information,” said Peggy McGowen, ASID, CMKBD, award-winning kitchen and bath designer, and one of the speakers at the Sugar Land Home and Garden Show.

Those attending the show will have the opportunity to hear almost a dozen speakers, all with the knowledge and expertise on their subject, plus they will be offering the tips that only experts know from experience.

Organizing 101
Another speaker slated to draw a crowd is Lisa Giesler, the energized and self-motivated owner of A Time and Place for Everything LLC and author of, My Life Is a Mess: Organizing 101.

“Many people lead chaotic lives and they need help or guidance getting and staying organized. Many simply need to know how to set-up a calendar and learn time management skills so their lives will flow. Some people need help with everything from scheduling their children’s activities when they have three kids going in three different directions to organizing their paperwork and computer files. I’ll cover all of these and more in my presentation,” Giesler said.

Color Trends
Trish Buscemi is new to the show this year, and is the Founder and Certified Color Consultant (CfYH) of Colors Matter.  Trish has been about "Color" all her life and lately has begun working iwth parents of special needs children and is a Color Consultant and Painter for the Make A Wish Foundation and the Montgomery County Habitat for Humanity.
