A picture of my walk out basement entryway can be found in the current issue of Better Homes and Gardens 100 Decorating Ideas - Big Style for Small Rooms.

The original picture is the same as above except that it included me walking through the door holding a bucket of flowers. If you look closely through the opened door, you get a small glimpse of the blue stone patio my husband had just completed. Since the photo shoot, I have changed the door knob you see in this photo to polished nickel to coordinate with the rest of the basement and house.
The second picture of the basement renovation can be found in Better Homes and Gardens 2010 March issue of Remodel.

This picture of the sitting area is also very similar to the original except that it gives a little broader view of the space. I was so pleased to discover these photos had been used again. I hope you will get a chance to see them in the magazines.
I notice that BH&G has done this with other articles and projects I've seen in their magazines. I did not get to see your original article; I'll have to pick up one of these next time I'm at the store and see the pictures "in person"! Congrats on such a successful renovation. I'm sure it must be a shock to see your home in a magazine when you're not expecting it.
ReplyDeleteI just love BH&G special publications! Such great ideas!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! That is a beautiful space and it deserves to be featured!! Fresh and clean colours, that's what I'm seeing everywhere these days.
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool to be published! The rooms are picture perfect! Wonderful job!
ReplyDeleteWow, that's awesome! I love all the BHG decorating mags :)

I have your pic ripped out and in my planning binder. Great job, thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteHow cool! Congrats! And thanks for commenting on my blog. Did you know you can change your blogger settings and when you leave a comment the receiver (only) can reply back to your email?
ReplyDeleteGo to your blogger dashboard
Click on Edit profile (near your photo)
then under "privacy" click the "show my email" button. It will not show up on a general comment, but WILL show up when the recipient gets your comment in their email.
Just a thought - I had to hunt for your blog because your "follower icon" did not show that you had a blog.
You can delete this if you want! But I do like your blog and am now a follower and am REALLY impressed that you have been published! Your house is beautiful, by the way!

Congrats. I have that magazine. I will have to go look after I am done on the computer.
ReplyDeleteI am curious--did you post to them? Just curious since you were surprised.

It's such a shame we don't get these magazines in Australia - I'd love to be able to see more of your gorgeous rooms. Leigh
ReplyDeleteI kept that particular BHG magazine just for the basement redo... so glad to have found your blog. Your home is LOVELY. Keep decorating & inspiring!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this space!! I tore these photos out of the B&G magazine a while back when we were planning out our home renovation! I'm so happy to have found your blog! We are getting started on our basement remodel shortly, so I am taking in all the inspiration I can get!!! Thanks!
