Meet & Greet with Martha’s Team & Sweet Treats

Yesterday Plaid headquarters was buzzing with excitement, because the development team from Martha Stewart came for a visit. Our visitors were Alex Peruzzi – AVP Licensing, Crafts and Megen Lee – AVP Design Director, Holiday & Crafts. We held a meet and greet reception for them, and gave them a tour of our building.  During the reception we discovered that it was Megan’s birthday. He and Martha Stewart share the same birthday. How great is that! We were very excited to celebrate with them, the launch of the soon to be released Martha Stewart Craft Paint program, and their partnership with Plaid Enterprises. During the celebration we all were treated to these delicious cupcakes. These cupcakes were made by Gigi’s Cupcakes. They were specially designed to include the signature Martha Stewart blue, and were topped off with pearls made out of sugar.
