Thanks to Ladies Home Journal

Yesterday I attended an event at the offices of Ladies Home Journal in midtown. I normally don't post stuff like this, but I thought maybe I'll start doing so....

One reason is.... I wanted to thank all the ladies from the mag, who were so kind & generous with their time. I chatted the most with Beth Roehrig (Home Editor) & Sue Erneta (Fashion editor) - are you surprised?  Somehow, I'm drawn to all the home & fashion people in the industry....figures ha!
 
About 9 BLOGGERS were invited to attend this event - & I was quite happy to be one of them! We're supposed to be featured in the mag in a section called "Let's talk about..." Another one of my pretty blogger friends who also got the invite was Ashlina from The Decorista blog- she's the brunette hanging out in their AMAZING kitchen below!
 
I hope to go to more events now that I'm living in Manhattan- so pls feel free to email me invites! Maybe I'll see you in person soon! 
 
Above is the new March issue...revamped. How much nicer is their logo?? Don't you think??


Ashlina & I (NOT) cooking in the kitchen.

 


The kitchen in their offices was HUGE. I swear it was like 4 kitchens in one. Almost too large to shoot!



Some of the many DELICIOUS sweets they had for us...! Love!


Me (on the right) hanging out with Beth (Home Editor)- loved chatting with her! 


 We all got a BIG goodie bag, filled with lots of cool items! One of my FAVE things was this handmade Stingray cuff bracelet! You can get one at Leighelena.





Ladies Home Journal is always looking for interesting stories about women. If you think you have a story that is inspiring and should be told, email me & I'll let them know!

That sounds like sooo much fun! I'm sure you're going to get lots of invites because little ole me gets invites here and there to some magnificent functions! If I lived in NYC it would be easy for me to attend these fun gatherings! Maybe one day...I can hop on a plane and do that! Glad you had fun! I love Ladies Home Journal!

You have such a blessed life. I like the new logo too, its more current.
I love your blog and your work. Your very creative, I'm recently trying to find my way back to being creative, my imagination has been stale for too long.
