make it!
I am very excited to have another tutorial in Romantic Homes magazine.
A few weeks ago I was asked to write a how-to for April's The French Issue, and decided to feature a jar decorated with a printed and glittered French label (source: The Graphics Fairy; jar: Smucker's).
It's always fun to stage mini photo shoots and then write the corresponding text. I often use puns and am not sure if anyone "gets" my little jokes but me (words like: relishing -- as in a jar of relish; the title: French Dressing -- as in a bottle of salad dressing. Silly, I know).
Our blogs are like our own magazines, don't you think? A very heartfelt thank you to Romantic Homes for providing another opportunity for me to share in print.

My hubby was laughing at me yesterday. I had eye surgery but when I was done I had to go to the store to see if they had the new RH. They did and I was trying to read with one eye. I'll be saving all of my jars now! I love the labels you used too. Well done Elyse!
You are so inspiring, and such a lucky lady to be featured in so many different publications..... you must be giddy. Congrats oxox, Diane

Elyse,
That is terrific!I Love the way you stage things. Just something that doesn't come naturally to me, though. I'll just keep watching you. I do think our blogs are like magazines, with the extra benefit of having all this feedback from people we now know. It is the best of worlds!
