This year the National Wood Flooring Association encouraged exhibitors and visitors to tell the Twitterverse about the 2013 NWFA Wood Flooring Expo using the hashtags #NWFAExpo and #NWFAThinkBig. Here are some of the tweets that resulted:

As the Big Idea board in the lobby filled up, NWFA tweeted some of the gems:
#nwfathinkbig courage is not the absence of fear...it's moving ahead in spite of your fear.
#nwfathinkbig everyone starts out as a small fish...how large a fish can you be??
#nwfathinkbig don't get caught wearing last year's badge...like I did.
Jeremiah 29: 11 #nwfathinkbig
#nwfathinkbig I'm going to concentrate on unique forms of social media and use video to reach customers.
#nwfathinkbig I'm not a smart man but I know what hardwood is.
#nwfaexpo if its not in your hand, it's not in your hand.
