Okay, so it didn't come to MY house today because dude, I think someone is messing with me! ALL my neighbor's got theirs today and I didn't. I haven't even received the box of complimentary copies. You know, the ones I am going to frame and scrapbook. ( :P ) They were suppose to be here weeks ago! But my cute neighbor let me steal hers until I get my own.
If you are new here you might want to read about WHY it is such a big deal for me to be in this particular magazine. And about the experience of the actual shoot.
What a fun day!
You are so talented, amazing, and beautiful!
CONGRATULATIONS on this incredibly wonderful feature! You are such a role model for me :)
You are SO adorable (I love this picture of you) & amazingly talented!!!! Congratulations a million times over, you have inspired me to dream bigger today!!!!! xoxoxo
WOW, First congrats, I read the back story. No wonder you're so excited to see it. I think my mom gets this so I'll definitely have to look at it to see a pic of the room you decorated. Great post and story

I'm going to the bookstore tomorrow. I'm such a big fan-- how exciting!!
You are too sweet! I don't think it is out in stores yet though. Subscribers usually get them early. Thanks for being so supportive :)
Oh but it is!!! I picked up my copy this morning while grocery shopping!
I just found that out too! I guess I am a big fat liar :)
Congratulations, and how exciting for you. I can't wait to get my August BHG edition. You should be so proud of yourself. Maybe I'll give some of my dreams a shot, like you said, they can only say no, and I can try harder the next time!

Woo Hoo! I'm lookin for you in my issue! You shot for the stars and got there. :-)
So exciting! I am looking forward to getting my copy in the mail to see the feature - Congratulations to you!!!

Congratulations Stacy! I'm out of town so I haven't seen it yet, but I'm excited to check it out when I get back home.
2 thumbs up! How exciting!
I couldn't be more excited for you. And it couldn't have happened to a better gal. I loved hearing you talking about it in person, too. You just have this super excited tone when you tell about it. YAY! I will go pick up a copy as soon as it's in the stores. Congrats!
That is such a cute pic of you! Congratulations!
Aww man! Mine hasn't come either! can't wait to see it!
That's so exciting! LOVE that magazine and never miss it so will be sure to look for you.
Ok, I have to share...I have the sweetest hubby in the whole world! I was reading him part of your post (and some of the funny parts of the BH&G previous posts)...he just came back from the store with a 5.8 oz cookis & cream ice cream AND the Aug. edition of Better Homes and Gardens! (I didn't ask for it!)
Gonna enjoy my ice cream now, and reading the magazine, looking for your article.
Yay! Congratulations! I remember reading about your experience. I can't wait to get my issue!
Can't wait to get mine too...looking forward to seeing you in print!!! Congrats!!!
Stacy that is SOOO exciting!!! Great job. You are incredible and I had such a great time meeting you the other night!
This is so awesome! A real dream come true! I completely understand the stress and anxiety you must have been under. You deserve to sit back and read BH&G and smile!
I found you after seeing you in BH&G, and loved reading your blog posts about how it was for you. It was certainly much calmer looking in the pic than it was in real life! :) A big congrats and I love your blog. Glad to have found you!
I just found your blog and read your BH&G story! HOW AWESOME! Congrats! I am totally going to have to look at your ceiling!
very cool

So excited to see this article!!! congratulations!!!!!!!! that ceiling really is spectacular!!!!
Woohoo! Can't wait to run out and grab my copy. Congratulations!
Congrats!!! That's awesome :)
I saw your article today in my FAVORITE magazine! I immediately added your blog to my "Fav's"! Thanks for being awesome! I've been wanting to stencil our bedroom walls for some time, but had the same fears you did. It looks great!
my BHG came today and i read mags back to front...so guess what i saw first!...loved the idea of a stenciled ceiling...and when i saw the blog addy and the utah connection i had to drop in...love your blog!
Idaho must get theirs earlier because my sister got hers last week. I was like Hey! Let me see that! - Look! Look! I know her! (Of course my sister laughed at me when she realized I only knew you through blog land. She called me a stalker...) But I feel like I know you! Congratulations!
I got mine today and read the whole thing! I saw your little article and loved it, got up and followed you on my google reader immediately. congratulations!
YEAH for you! That is an amazing accomplishment to be in that magazine! You are a DIY home rockstar!
Picked up the BHG while in Home Depot last week just to see you. Loved the picture. Love the ceiling. So many ideas for the next house we own! Thanks.
I read your feature in BHG yesterday and thought, "That lady sounds just like me". Okay, not the powertools part--more the 4 kids, Payson part. (I went to school in Utah, anyway.) Congratulations! And congratulations on having such a successful blog! I'm adding it to my favorites right away.
