Had a nice little surprise today!
A few months ago I had a request for some pics of my bags from Handmade Living magazine. I sent them off but completely forgot about it, so today I sat down to have a look online to see if I could find if they'd been used or not. As it goes I didn't find anything, but oddly enough I did find one of my scarves that apparently was used in the January issue! I had no idea!
I get such a buzz seeing my products in magazines, especially when you're not looking for the thing, it just appears when you turn the page. I was actually really shocked at how professional the photograph looked! That was one I did so quite proud of that one!
Just got a lovely little order in too but more on that when it's officially gone through (hate to jinx things!) ...hopefully I can share that one tomorrow for Handmade Monday !

P.S. - 5 months to go to the wedding!

Well done on getting published, such a feather in your cap
ReplyDeleteLovely! After seeing you post of craftsforum, I have been looking for an old HL for you, but I can't find it. It will be somewhere around, because my plaques were in it, and if your bag's in it I'll let you know. Can't remember the date on it, wasn't that long ago. That photo does look very professional!
ReplyDeleteWell done - what a great achievement.
ReplyDeleteWhat an achievement. Can you not contact them for a freebie copy?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations :-) I'm surprised they didn't contact you to let you know - you would have thought they could have sold a few more copies (I know if I was featured in a magazine my mum and my gran would be rushing out to buy it straight away!).
ReplyDeleteWell done you - can imagine it really is a buzz to see yourself in print.

That's fantastic - how exciting!
ReplyDeletethe photograph does look very professional, well done you! x
It must be so exciting to have your items in a magazine, I know I would love to see one of mine in one!
ReplyDeleteThat is wonderful... and it looks fabulous. How did you stop yourself from banging on your neighbours doors to show them? LOL :)
ReplyDeleteWell, yes, that's wonderful! It is fun to get a nice surprise like that, and it looks great (and VERY professional). :) Congratulations.
ReplyDeletewell done on getting published! Must be such a buzz!
