Featured on Apartment Therapy

  
A huge thank-you to Apartment Therapy for featuring my Silver Leaf Ikea Rast hack




A few months ago it was also featured on Apartment Therapy's Re-Nest site too.



So flattered and thrilled!

BTW: Did you know the co- founder, Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan
 of Apartment Therapy was a teacher?

Love how a lot of great designers and those involved in design were teachers {maybe there is hope for me?}
You can read his interview in the latest issue of Canadian House and Home!

A few former teachers that I know of:
Meredith Heron: HGTV fame and designer extraordinaire
Christine Dovey: Bijou and Boheme
Maureen Funk: Mo' Funk Designs
Jane Gallant: Modern Jane

I guess we teachers are a creative lot.

  12. Well deserved Barbara! I have heard that AT comments can be mean spirited, but don't let that bother you if they do if they do. your piece is stunning and so creative, it deserves to be on AT. I had no idea he was a teacher...someone had told me once that AT was started as an outlet for folks after 9/11 happened in New York, but I don't know if that is true
