I Am So Excited ...

Hello my dear friends,

I am so excited that I can share this with all you lovely bloggers finally.


Remember this ... my hymnal page feather? Of course you do!

A few months ago I was approached by a dutch magazine called 'Ariadne at Home'. They told me that they were working on an issue of their 'Brocante Special' magazine that included creating with old paper, book pages and music sheets and that they had seen my hymnal page feather and would like to feature it in their upcoming issue and ... now they have! 

Not only that but my feather made it onto the front cover of the magazine!
 WOW ...  I am so excited about this!

Here is a little sneak peek of the cover, since the magazine itself isn't out just yet.
 That will happen next month in the Netherlands.

Do you see it?! ... Right there in the bottom left corner ~ my hymnal page feather!

Did I mention that I am so excited already? (I think it's the third time already)
This is so neat and I am so buzzed about it and I can't wait to get my issue in the mail so I can share more with all of you lovely bloggers. Right now you will all have to wait with me though if you would like to know more which makes it a little nicer for me since I am not on my own doing so.

Thank you so much for everything ~ your sweet comments and support and for always visiting me. Without you Todolwen wouldn't be what it is.

I hope you are well my dear friends and life is treating you kind.

Have a peaceful and creative day.

  2. I'm sure you must be over the moon with excitement, knowing you are being featured in a Dutch magazine, I know I would be, I remember seeing your tutorial for the feather when I had found my old book of German music. I feel happy for you. Congratulations.

  3. Congratulations! I'm so excited for you and must say I know how it feels to be on a magazine cover (altho' mine wasn't on quite so grande scale as this magazine). I'm still recovering, so I know the excitement will last a long time for you.

  11. Wow, I'm so excited for you! I love those feathers and have made several that are throughout my home. I'm wondering if we will be able to order that magazine in the US? Or could we order it through you?

  12. Hi Karen,
    That is so great !! You know I live in the Netherlands and have a subscription for Ariadne at Home for years now and it's so exciting to see your work there. The Ariadne Brocante is a separate magazine, so tomorrow I have to rush to the shop and buy it !
    Did they sent you a translation ? If not, may be I can try to do a translation for you.( that is....if I'm not too late :).
    Anyway.........I'm so happy for you ! Congratulations Karen !!

    Blessings to you,

    Wilma. Shabby Royale.
