I have had the most quiet of mornings, yawn, oh I did receive this in the post... No big deal really. Ade, as my witness, will tell you I did not clap my hands like a primary school kiddy, or do a ridiculous knees up dance, nor did my voice go up several pitches... no, no, no. It was quite a sedate affair.

LOOOK!!!!!! That's me, right there in a glossy magazine! And a GREAT one at that!
(I must add that Ade was just as frantically flicking through the pages, which made me even happier!).
There's a little feature on me in
Fresh Style, a special publication by the publishers of Southern Lady Magazine from across the pond, AND editor Andrea Fanning used some of my hoops in her styling of a bedroom makeover!!
Oh my little heart...!
I had seen pdfs of the feature and bedroom makeover, but there's nothing like holding the magazine in your hands to make it real.
From being contacted a few months ago by editorial assistant Becky, to this is quite surreal! (Thanks Becky!)
The magazine is a great read from start to finish: features on some mighty ladies:
Amy Butler,
Ashley Ann Campbell and
Heather Bailey, fabby projects for us DIYers, and much, much eye candy.
