Yesterday, Jeff and I strolled down to Barnes and Noble at lunchtime because (surprise!) I’m in the February 2012 issue of Women’s Day magazine. Yay!
Of course, I always get excited about magazine features, but I have to admit it’s partly because I like to send a copy to my grandma every time it happens so she knows I’m legit (she basically has no idea what I do for a living because she has never been on a computer in her life so its kind of difficult to explain it to her. but magazine features she understands).
Anyway, this year is the 75th anniversary of the mag and I am honored to be a part of it. My project for a lacy frosted glass mirror is on page 46. You may remember the original mirror project from the blog a couple of years ago if you’ve been around for a while.
If you’re interested, you can pick up a copy at your local book store or head to the Woman’s Day website and get the full tutorial online to make your own.
Big thanks to Woman’s Day for featuring my project. Really a pleasure to work with them.

That is really special !

Thanks Lakshmi. Yeah, I don’t even try to explain it to her anymore because it’s so foreign to her. I just say that I do stuff on the computer. Ha!

Woo woo! So exciting when you get published. I had my first article professionally framed and it still hangs on the wall over 10 years later. Nothing like the kick of seeing your stuff in print. Hugs.
