Now, onto to some wonderful news (atleast I think so...LOL)!!! I have been asked to join Mercantile Magazine !!! I know some of you are familiar with this Wonderful, Primitive Magazine...but for some of you who aren't, here is the link to check it out for yourself http://mercantilegatherings.com/shop/ .
This magazine comes out four times a year, Spring-Summer-Fall-Winter. I will be joining them starting this Summer 2009 with a new article/column being added to the Magazine called "Mercantile Makeover Miser"! Yep, being a cheapskate finally has paid off....LOL! I will be taking your everyday items and making them into something new, while showing you how to make them as well! Kinda just like I do here, but this will be a never seen before item we will do! I have had alot of you email me asking about my "Shoo Fly Screen Cover" tutorial here. It will also be in the Summer 2009 issue, so if you missed it here, please be sure and pick up your copy for the instructions once again!
I also would like to announce that I have 2 projects coming in the Fall 2009 issue of Create & Decorate Magazine! I will let you know more about these later this Summer!
That's very exciting news! Pat your self on the back. It's fun to see "friends" in all these magazines. Have a good evening.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS to you now being a part of the best prim magazine. Yep, I went out to Amish country this weekend and picked up 2 old antique strainers to make a fly cover, come home and check out your blog and the tutorial is gone. Yep, I was freaking out to say the least. Hopefully I can figure it out on my own. I just didn't want to wait til summer time to see your tutorial again (lol).
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week : )
