2011 Show Highlights

“The Little Big House” Designed by Local IDA with Space Efficiency in Mind

Frivolous is out - functional is in. Today's homeowners want multipurpose rooms and products, and this year's “Little Big House” gives show visitors a glimpse of how to achieve big living in small spaces. The Interior Design Association of Western New York (IDA) provides unique areas for storage, family and pet space. Ann Medinac of Ann Medinac Interiors, Diana Augspurger of Creative Storage and Michelle Bailey of FNS Design Studio coordinated the design efforts for the house. Features of “The Little Big House” include a two-sided fireplace that heats both the kitchen and living room; a laundry room that incorporates a gift-wrapping and sewing station; a doggie shower; and a tucked-away bar that is easily accessible for entertaining. M P Caroll Hardwood is the official hardwood flooring supplier of “The Little Big House.” Don't miss the IDA's “The Little, Little House,” a fantastic children's play house with a home away from home feel.

The show is partnering with WBEN Radio to give away the TV.

Win Innovative Bamboo Flooring from M P Caroll Hardwood

The M P Caroll Hardwood  floor giveaway is back again at the 2011 Home and Garden Show, and this year one lucky visitor will win a brand new strand-woven bamboo floor. Bamboo is fast-growing and better for the environment than traditional flooring, for the ‘green' consumers, it's the ideal option. The bamboo floor is 200 sq. ft., valued at $3,000, with installation included. And with bamboo as the latest trend in flooring, the winner can select from four popular colors. Strand-woven bamboo flooring is twice as hard as an oak floor - perfect for families with children and pets. To enter a chance to win visit, www.wivb.com and test your knowledge of bamboo flooring by answering three questions.

NCCC Chefs' Cooking Segments Add Flavor To Show

During the first weekend of the show, on Saturday, March 5 and Sunday, March 6, chefs and future chefs from Niagara County Community College's Culinary Arts Department will present a total of six, 45-minute cooking demonstrations.  And the menu includes springtime favorites and seasonal touches.  The chefs are partnering with the Field & Fork Network, a non-profit organization that works toward developing new economic opportunities for farmers and artisan producers in the eight counties of Western New York. During the cooking segments, which are scheduled for 1, 3 and 5 p.m. each day, show visitors will learn how to make elegant appetizers, entrees and desserts.


Barefoot Wine and Bubbly Chef to Serve Up Cocktails, Soups and More

Wine, champagne and delicious recipes are cooking in the Barefoot Wine and Bubbly kitchen during the second weekend of the show. Chef Randy Arnold will be cooking up spring-time soups, Sunday brunch and of course, cocktails during the second weekend of the show, March 11-13. Chef Randy will kick-off the weekend with a happy hour on Friday, March 11. On Saturday, he will host several 45 minute cooking segments throughout the day before serving up late-afternoon cocktails. And on Sunday, March 12 join him for a “Bathrobe Brunch with Barefoot” - wear your bathrobe and receive a free gift from the Barefoot Winery. Chef Randy, the Barefoot Ambassador, has represented the winery for over 20 years. He grew up in the wine business starting at the ground level in his family's Sonoma County vineyards, and he loves to share his knowledge of wine, champagne and food in a fun entertaining way. Barefoot is the official Wine and Bubbly of the Buffalo Home & Garden Show.
