A Romantic Homes Mag Feature & ScotchBlue Winner

October 2011 Cover of Romantic Homes magazine

 has something extra special about it.

See where it says~ 

10 Ways to whiten a space

Well, that is a feature I was asked to contribute after the regional editor

read my blog one day where I talked about whitening a room.

You just never know WHO is reading YOUR blog!

That is when I learned I had to take all my pics in high resolution,

because those are the only pics they can print in a magazine.

So exciting, waiting months to see what it is going to look like,

how the magazine people are going to use your words and pics 

and put it all together for a national audience.

My issue finally came in the mail...

many days after others had received theirs.

This time I did not run out to a bunch of stores hunting it down.

I wanted to see how it felt just getting it in the mail~

and it felt really cool! 

And it STILL feels cool!

Look, I am in the ta da section~that's cool, right?

Here is the article featuring my tips and pics of my house.

Some of my room decor has changed~

 from very white to having a little more pattern and color.

Maybe I will have to write another feature

 about changing things around all the time!
