I am so excited I can hardly stand it!! Yesterday I received the August 2009 issue of Romantic Homes and opened it up to find the most gorgeous pictures taken of a lampshade in my store. The editor of the magazine, Jacqueline deMontravel, came out a few months ago to take pictures of a project that I had submitted to the magazine’s “make it” section.

 

My sister is actually the one who created this particular lampshade and I mentioned that in the several emails we wrote back and forth and the day I met with Jacqueline, but they printed my name in the magazine. I think my sister was a bit disappointed at first, but her, my mom and I are all still very excited. The fact that our store and our work has been published in a magazine is really great, even if they gave credit to the wrong person.

 

In a PREVIOUS POST I gave how to instructions on this lampshade along with some pictures I took, but my post was put to shame by the fabulous layout they printed in the most recent issue of Romantic Homes. The title they gave it is so clever too; “A Shady Past.”

 

Below are pages from the magazine:
