O Baby!
File this under it’s nice to be nominated.
As we mentioned in our inaugural blogiversary post, we were actually talking to people at Harpo about doing a teensy little DIY segment on an episode of Oprah. One of our lovely readers over at Better Homes & Gardens (thanks Kaelin!) emailed us to mention that Harpo execs were looking for some crafty home peeps so she gave them our name. About an hour later the phone rang! Yes, we realize how INSANE that sounds. Even after 15 emails back and forth and two phone conversations it still seems like a series of dream sequences.
Alas, even after all the back and forth with the lovely people at Harpo, it just couldn’t come together in time for their targeted episode (the one that featured Ty Pennington making over two twins’ homes last Friday) but it was an honor, a privilege, and a bit of a nail-biter to have even been considered.
And now that we’re on their radar who knows. Maybe one day we’ll get to look cutie pie Nate Berkus in his dreamy green eyes and tell him how much we obsess over his sickeningly perfect design sense on a daily basis (although John would probably choose to word his admiration in a slightly different manner). Fingers crossed…

You Youngsters are so cool. Happy anniversary to you both on your outstanding blogging. I spend way too much time here every day during work, and look forward to your multiple posts like you wouldn’t believe. So much inspiration, and such clever writing too. But what I really admire is that it’s the two of you together; that you get to do what you love with the one you love.
Well deserved! I’ve been a daily reader for a few months now and always look forward to your next inspiring post :) Big things are happening for Young House Love and you both deserve all the good that comes your way! Keep it up!
Ha! well deserved recognition! I have always liked Nate better anyway…:)
Awww yay! Happy blogiversary and congrats on all the great things that have been happening lately!
We love you guys! If we ever get to look deep into Nate’s eyes someday, we’ll have you to thank for your endless support and encouragement:)
xoxo,
Sherry (& John)
