Greater Kansas City Home Show Welcomes Bethenny Frankel and More

I am so excited to sharing the scoop on the Great Kansas City Home and Lifestyle Show this year. There are so many exciting things going on and I have all the details for you. One of the most inspiring self-made business women, she even one of Forbes’ top 100 Most Powerful Celebrities will be there. I’m talking about skinny girl founder herself, Bethenny Frankel.

If you have been following me for a while know you already know I absolutely love a good success story. I strive off of being surrounded by motivating people so you better believe I plan to be one of the first in line to meet Ms. Bethenny Frankel and I hope you will join me, too!

Fans will have the opportunity to learn about Frankel’s career and lifestyle as well as ask her questions during her time on stage. Frankel will also host meet-and-greet opportunities with her fans. For the opportunity to meet Frankel and get a photo with her, fans can go online to kchomeshow.com and purchase a special Meet and Greet ticket for only $35. This VIP ticket also allows fans to sit up-front in reserved seating during Frankel’s program. Frankel’s stage schedule is below:

Saturday, March 23: Presentation begins at 2:00 p.m. and Meet and Greet begins at 3:00 p.m.
Sunday, March 24: Presentation begins at 1:00 p.m. and Meet and Greet begins at 2:00 p.m.

Another guest that will be at the show is one of Kansas City’s very own, Tamara Day. She is the star of DIY Network’s Bargain Mansions and honestly just the nicest person. I have had the chance to meet Tamara before and she is always so sweet and excited about everything home related. She will be walking around the home show throughout the weekend to talk about her hit TV show, her design inspiration and her life.

Now, that you’ve got your chance to meet a couple of inspiring ladies lets move on to something so exciting you’ll get to see at the show. Another hot item at the show will be the Smart Home. Some day I’d like to have a full out smart home. I’m such a technology fanatic that I can never get enough of these smart products. Having a full home of them isn’t too much to ask…Goals, am I right? Anyways, during the show you’ll get to explore ways to customize your home with smart technology in an interactive house, courtesy of Patriot Homes, Ferguson/Factory Direct and Samsung.

Features that the smart home will include:

Samsung Smart Refrigerator: With a large touchscreen in the door, homeowners can shop for food, organize your family’s schedules, entertain, and even see who’s at the door.
Kohler Verdera Voice Smart mirror: Embedded with Amazon Alexa, improve your morning experience by listening to weather or traffic info while you’re putting on makeup with the right lighting. Add lipstick or shaving cream to the shopping list with a simple voice command.
Moen Shower Head: Start, stop and pause your shower with your voice and bring the water to a specific temperature.
Gobomow Lawn Mower: This automated lawnmower gives you the peace of mind of a well- maintained lawn without any of the work.

So you thought I was done after smart home? Well, think again! This is no ordinary home show, they have some extraordinary things going on. There will also be a Parade of Playhouses, that’ right playhouses. HBA members will be building playhouses to be displayed during the Greater Kansas City Home and Lifestyle Show. Attendees will have the opportunity to bid on these playhouses via an online auction and proceeds from the auction will benefit Veterans Community Project (VCP). The VCP will be showcasing one of its tiny homes at the show. In support of VCP, a $1 from every home show ticket sold in advance online will go to its efforts to end veteran homelessness.
