Quite a while ago I wrote that I got a very exciting e-mail from Better Homes and Gardens. They had somehow (miraculously) discovered my blog and were interested in my burlap Christmas stockings.
Although we spent a few months e-mailing and filling out forms and contracts, I still didn’t want to get my hopes up too high… I figured there is always the chance an editor might change her mind about putting something in a magazine.
But, a few weeks ago, I got this in the mail:
I flipped through that thing faster than I have any magazine, and quickly made a discovery…
~my burlap Christmas stockings!! I was so excited I could hardly stand it ~ and honestly, it still seems so surreal.
I’ve been looking for it on stands here in Canada, but haven’t found it so far. {Have you?} But – Christmas stockings aside – I really do like the magazine. It is FULL of great ideas. If you need a creativity jumpstart, it’s an awesome place to start.
{And, no, Better Homes and Gardens didn’t compensate me for saying nice things about them. I do, however, want to thank them for the opportunity to be in one of their magazines. I feel beyond honoured.}
