The excitement of receiving the magazines in the mail, knowing my articles were in there were priceless!!!Ironically, the two magazines aren't affiliated in any way but I was published in the March edition of both of them. One is our local magazine. My sweet friend, Lee Ann, asked if I'd be interested in doing a DIY piece and of course I said YES!
She wrote the article and I created the Easter crafts (during Christmas...which was very weird).I made an Easter-y tree, a chalkboard, and a bright, Spring wreathe (my favorite craft- very Lily P. if you asked me!) I love the way it turned out and I am so grateful that she asked me to be a part!
The second magazine is Military Spouse Mag.
I wrote the article and did the DIY projects for this particular assignment. The article was about easy, inexpensive ways to decorate your home when you are constantly changing homes. This was obviously geared toward military families. I did a chalkboard tutorial, a personalized family monogram canvas, and some framed children's art.
I'm inspired to seek out more writing and crafting opportunities in my future! It really is so rewarding to put time and effort into something and then be able to see the finished results in hard copy. I'm hooked!
