I did find the spring issue of Flea Market Style at Barnes & Noble yesterday.
{and my mom confirmed it is also available in the Bend, Oregon B&N}
I am incredibly proud and humbled to see my design
and styling work featured.
If you have seen it, I would love to hear what you think. For real.
This journey, of pursuing my passion is one I will never
regret…..I still pinch myself each day that I get to
work with clients who trust me and believe in my vision
{and tolerate my 'still-learning how to be a real designer' fumbles},
that I get to work in a creative field AND be a mom {not that
I am saying it's always easy}, that I am learning, growing, stretching…..
that I am doing what makes me 'come alive'….all.of.it.
Ok, this is the last you will hear me "toot my own horn" - I
sometimes get annoyed at bloggers who blather on and on about
all their career conquests and I would hate to do that…..
My intention is to use my story to inspire….to encourage.
'Cause, sometimes we could all use a little of that, no
matter where we are in our own journey.
girl. TOOT your HORN already!! this is awesome & your blog readers are your cheerleaders!!! so thrilled for you!! that's the coolest xoxo

I am excited for you! You do inspire others..... Case in point. I am patiently waiting for a PB Carlisle armchair slipcover in a ticking stripe inspired by your ticking stripe settee!

PS - I DON'T miss that snow!!! Would it be bad if I mentioned our crocus are blooming?
Congratulations! And continue to share your successes. You inspire others when you do!

Congratulations! I love every detail in the above photo. Nothing wrong with tooting your own horn! We enjoy your work, that's why we're here. I think it's hard for women to speak openly about their success; weren't we all taught to be modest? But in business....especially when you are the business, it's important to get comfortable talking about your talent and successes. No one wants to hire a designer who says "yeah, I'm not bad...." :)
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right Mary!
