It’s kind of exciting…

…to see pictures of something you dreamed up and created in a magazine!  WHAT?

Yep, that’s my Picture Frame Collage Wall there on page 140 of Small Room Decorating, Spring 2012.

 

I had been contacted about using those photos for a different magazine and was expecting to see them in Decorating Shortcuts later in the Spring but had no idea they were in Small Room Decorating.  What a fun surprise!

 

That’s all.  No painting tip,  installation video or even a progress report today, just tooting my horn for a minute…  Because I’ve never had my design/creation/house in a magazine before and it’s kind of weird and fun all rolled up into a jumble of excitement and nervousness (for some odd reason) and I had to share.

Hope you don’t mind.  😀

  3. Sandra you deserve it! That’s such a great surprise, makes all the hard work and effort worth it, you’ve been published! Congratulations!

  5. I am so glad you shared the page here since I have been looking for the issue since you first mentioned it and I haven’t found it yet. Kinda reminds me of the time when I was contacted by the city newspaper to do an article on me about my use of midwives during pregnancy. They didn’t tell me when it would be published – when I did find out, it was the day after the paper came out and I had to hunt down copies. Thankfully the local gas station still had the old papers and I got a bunch for free to keep as keepsakes. Gave me all the same feelings, just on a smaller scale. After all, it was only a newspaper for a city of 700,000 instead of a national magazine! Kudos to you!

  11. It’s because you are so awesome and talented!!! I just love your blog. You give me so many great ideas….. now only if I was as energetic as you in getting those ideas done 🙂

  17. Way to go! I, and I am sure all your fellow bloggers, are so proud of you! You definitely deserve it. Waiting to see your closet and your workshop in magazines too. Cheers!

  19. AWESOME!!! Thanks to that picture, I got the courage to start DIYing!! Yay, I love that it can be shared with an even bigger audience 🙂

  23. SOOOOooo exciting! It’s nice to have a place you can let off some of that nervous/excited energy. You are awesome.

  35. Congratulations Sandra! I’d be so excited, I’d be tooting my horn, playing a banjo and, tickling the ivories!

    You deserve it. You’re work is gorgeous!
