EXCITING NEWS!

Back in June, I got an email from Carolyn Purnell, one of the contributing writers at Apartment Therapy.  

She recently started following my blog and was wondering if I would be interested in letting her conduct a house tour.

I couldn't believe it!  Me?  Our house?!!  Apartment Therapy?!

Without even thinking about it,  I said yes!

Our house is no way close to done, but I wasn't going to pass up such a great opportunity.

It was an honor to be asked.

I always wondered how the process went.

Carolyn's email summarizes it...

Hi Charmaine,

I'm a contributing writer at Apartment Therapy, and I recently started following your blog. I love your style, and I was wondering if you would be interested in letting me conduct a house tour. The process is pretty simple: I send you a questionnaire to fill out, and then one day I come over to your place for an hour or two to take photos and chat. I live in Chicago, but I have been wanting to make it Milwaukee-ward sometime this summer, so maybe we could coordinate something for July or early August. 

Please let me know if you're interested, and either way, keep up the awesome blogging/ designing!

Best regards, 

Carolyn 

A few days later, she sent me the questionnaire and we decided on a time and date.

August 4th, at 10 am.

Carolyn and her other half, Ed, came.  As soon as they got here, she started taking photos.

We chatted in between.  It was pretty casual and a fun experience....

(the above photos were taken by my sister-in-law)

Thanks again, Carolyn (and Ed), for driving all the way to Milwaukee and taking your time to feature our home.

You guys are so sweet!

Can't wait to see our home through the eyes of Carolyn.

Apartment Therapy is posting it TOMORROW!!!

I'll link to it as soon as it's live.

Let me know what you guys think!

Be nice! :)
