I promised I'd tell you which design blog was going to feature our home.
Then, I forgot to tell it here. I announced it on Facebook and Instagram, but forgot to announce it right here, where it all began.
{hint: please consider this your invitation to join me on one or all of my other social media channels. I would love to see you there!}
So. Remember this post? My "Unstyled Lifestyle House Tour For No Real Reason"?
In that blog post, I practically bragged on the fact that I have never-no-never been invited to participate in one of those "Holiday House" virtual house tours at Christmas time...you know...
...the blog hops.
Not once.
And I really didn't {and don't} care.
But as fate would have it, Gabrielle Blair over at Design Mom actually invited me to submit photos of our home for her weekly design feature "Living With Kids - Home Tours".
Apparently the sort of lifestyle we have, living with one of our grandbabies for two years, followed by living right next door to the same grandchild {and we will quite possibly be living two doors down from two of our other grandbabies by the end of this summer!} is fascinating to many folks...
...and I do have to say - I am living a dream I have not earned and do not deserve. Hashtag blessedforsure.
Back to being invited to share our home on a real, true design blog. I gotta tell you, the #unstyledlifestyle of that initial, silly blog post, became a "work-my-behind-off-to-style-my-unstyled-lifestyle" project. A flurry of house cleaning and fresh-flower buying ensued upon learning that our home would actually be featured on - of all places, Design Mom.
Only THE website I have been "fan-girling" for at least two years!
I was over the moon, and still am.
You can find the shots of our home, and my interview here.
Meanwhile, please enjoy the "outtakes"...the shots that didn't make the cut for the feature piece:
