I applied on a whim - I just assumed I'd never hear from them. Kind of like playing lotto.
I have to admit I was a wee bit scared to read the comments. Sometimes it can get downright ugly but much to my shock, everyone was super sweet. Even the people who had something negative to say had some valid points.
Anywho, I just wanted to share my excitement over it. I know its not really important at all but Apartment Therapy was one of the first blogs I ever read so its almost surreal to see one of my photos staring back at me there.
If this is your first visit and want to see more about the rooms: Click on the photos at the bottom right of this page, you can see more posts about that particular room. Welcome!
Do you know how much I love this blog!!! Saving to the favorites file!! Yes I am!

ReplyDeleteCongrats! Quite the honor.........they know classy great work when they see it. WooHoo!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! You already know I love your home and everything you guys have done so I'm not shocked that you made it on AT after applying.
ReplyDeleteI remember when we made it to the semifinals in one of the color contests on AT - I was ecstatic. :-)
Very nice! Some people just love to be negative so I am glad that overall you received good feedback. I'd be too scared to even enter!
ReplyDeleteAww, congrats! :) Still love your kitchen!
ReplyDeleteA huge Congrats to you! You and your hubster have done an amazing job, and it's no wonder AT picked your home to feature - it is perfectly thought out and beautiful, yet approachable.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! What an honor! You totally deserve it!
ReplyDeleteCongrats. This is well-deserved!
ReplyDeleteTook them long enough! ;)
ReplyDeleteOkay, I'm back after reading the comments. As soon as I saw the first one about hiding the TV, I had to laugh because I think we've both written about not being afraid to let people know that we watch TV.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. I LOVE your kitchen!
ReplyDeleteThat's fantastic...and so well deserved! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! That's so exciting!
ReplyDeleteThat is exciting.
ReplyDeletewhatever this is so exciting! i would be jumping up and down! congrats.
ReplyDeleteVery exciting! Congratulations. It all looks completely amazing, I love the kitchen and bathroom especially.
ReplyDeleteThis is A-MAZING. But girl, you totally deserve it!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your kitchen and you deserve all the good.
ReplyDeleteI think any bad comments would be from anyone a wee bit jealous.

This is SO cool! Yes people on AT can be really mean but you got a TON of nice comments because you and your home are AWESOME! CONGRATS CONGRATS CONGRATS!!!!
ReplyDeleteI used to love AT, but I kind of stopped reading because of the negativity. For example
My neighbor had her beautiful condo patio deck featured on LA AT and some mean commentors started a nasty conversation about the price of the HOAs in our condo complex. So lame.
Congrats! Your place is nothing short of amazing!
ReplyDeleteWhat?! This is the FIRST time they've featured you? Shocking. A Huge Congrats, what fun!! Janell
ReplyDeleteConrats! That is so exciting!!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! You've done a beautiful job with your home, so I'm not surprised. Enjoy the spotlight :-)

Hi,
ReplyDeleteThis is my first brush with your renovation, thanks to AT. It's really incredible and you should be proud. You made some fantastic choices. Thanks for sharing your project and for taking all of those pictures. What are you going to do now that its finished? Did you find an untapped love for remodeling?
I'm surprised you haven't already been featured. Your place is gorgeous. Congrats!!! That's super cool.
ReplyDeleteYou are so cool! And your house is to die for! But I think I may already told you that. Congrats!!
ReplyDeleteSee how amazing we all think you are?? Congratulations, you are SO good!! You do deserve it!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats Girly girl...you sooooo deserve to be featured in NY Apartment therapy!!
ReplyDeleteSo happy for you, you and your kitchen deserve it. It’s beautiful.
ReplyDeleteA well deserved congratulations..!! It was a fabulous article about your gorgeous home.
ReplyDeleteAs for the people who commented about the tv. This is a person's HOME not a magazine spread, people actually live there and watch tv. Rant over.
Congratulations! You totally deserve it for putting together a home that has so much style & personality!
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean it's not important at all? It's super important! Congrats! You deserve it :)
ReplyDeleteyour home is absolutely gorgeous and I will be following your blog starting today! congrats on getting on AT-it was the first decor blog I followed as well!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog yesterday and commenting!
Awesome!
ReplyDeleteYour home is just beautiful. And all the work y'all have done to it...wow!
Congrats a second time! It must feel great to see your hard work on there!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! This is such exciting news...I'm going to go check it out (and I'll write something nice!)
ReplyDeleteThats so awesome, you totally deserve all the press- your house is just stunning!!!
ReplyDeleteIt IS a big deal, but I'm not one bit surprised that your home was chosen. It is absolutely stunning. And bravo to you for sticking up for your tv choice. Some people seem to think beautiful design is all fantasy, not for actual living. You have merged the two seamlessly.
ReplyDeleteOh, btw...the office walls are Benjamin Moore's Saybrook Sage? I always thought it was turquoise in color. My kitchen is Saybrook Sage lol.
ReplyDeleteNaz - my office walls are BM Waterfall. The bedroom walls are Saybrook Sage.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations and well deserved. They should feature more of your stunning home.
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! very exciting!
ReplyDeleteHow could you be scared! Your place looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm in awe and maybe a little envious of your creativity. Your home is truly beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm now a devoted fan!
Wahoo! Congrats chica. That's so exciting! And totally well deserved. You bet your buns everyone is being nice to you- with a house like yours what could anyone could say that's not totally lovey-dovey? In short: your house rocks. And no that was not meant to be a limestone pun...
ReplyDeletexo,
Sherry (& John)

ReplyDeleteCongratulations, this must be exciting, well done, your place is coming along so nicely!
ReplyDeleteOMG - your house is sooo gorgeous who could ever make a negative comment!
ReplyDeleteOf course it's important. It's something you're passionate about and worked really hard on/for. C'mon, it's your HOME. Nothing more important that that.
ReplyDeleteHow flattering - congrats!
ReplyDeleteI love your home so so much! Decor porn for sure! Congratulations on the feature!
