UncategorizedBHG is Coming! April 23, 2015I have some exciting news, my friends! When you guys guessed about the Big Secret Project, several of you guessed that a magazine was coming. Well, you were right! Obviously, moving and our coming renovation was what I was referring to then, but I can now officially share that Better Homes and Gardens is coming. They will be here next Thursday to photograph our Exterior Before and After for a coming issue’s “I Did It” page! This was a fairly simple exterior renovation. We did remove one window, which was by far the biggest piece of the project. Other than that, we changed out the door, changed the shutters, painted some, and added new posts and trim to the entrance. But man, it did make a big difference! You can find more details about the renovation plans and process and find more before and after photos here. Being in BHG has been a dream of mine since even before I started The White Buffalo and it is surreal that it’s happened twice in a couple of months (you can read about the first time here). I got the word about this photo shoot right when we found out we were selling our house. I’m so thankful that the timing worked out to photograph the exterior before we have to move. I cannot wait to work with the stylist and photographer and see their process. Some of my friends who’ve had BHG show up to photograph said you can learn so much as a blogger about how they work. I am super excited! I will be sharing behind-the-scenes details on Instagram and here on the blog afterwards! Little Rosie will be making her editorial debut in this photo as well. She’s coming up in the world for an almost three month old!
