I am so excited to be featured in the current issue of Decorating Shortcuts!
How did this come about, you ask? Well, several months ago the editors contacted me about this photo that they found on my houzz.com profile:
Amazingly, it has been added to almost 10,000 ideabooks. I'm completely baffled by this!
Since this photo was from our old house, and had been reincarnated already, I suggested that they consider using photos from my new design, as well. I had taken all sorts of befores and afters over the past few years, so they were well stocked with images. They were totally into the idea, and moved forward with the story. I couldn't be more pleased with the final product. It turned out great! (Ironically, the image that first sparked the story wasn't including in the final layout. So goes the world of publishing...)
There's some other good stuff in the mag, too, so make sure you pick up a copy. It'll be on newstands through October 2012.
Where did you get that awesome headboard from?? Love it!
ReplyDeleteHi there. Thanks. I got it from an estate sale for $2.50! You can find similar ones on eBay.

ReplyDeleteWow! Fantastic! Congrats on the amazing feature! I love both versions of your bedroom, but the latest version is probably my favourite. And of course, love the green dresser your dad made for you :-)
ReplyDeleteI'll keep an eye out for the magazine - I don't think I've seen it before, but then I've never had a friend featured in it before, so I've never looked for it before :-)
Thanks, Kelly. Yeah, you kind of have to hunt for this magazine, I found. It's not on every newstand. I picked mine up at Barnes and Noble.
Deleteway to go Kelly! The article looks awesome
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rachel! I was super happy with the layout! I think they did a great job.
DeleteCongratulations, how exciting! I've never seen Decorating Shortcuts before but I'm definitely going to grab a copy.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Veronica!
DeleteI'm doing cartwheels over here!!! Must have a copy when it comes out! I love when truly talented and nice colleagues get such well deserved recognition-Yes!
