Young House Love » Our First House » What’s Full Of Twelve People And One Dog?

| By Sherry Petersik | November 7, 2008 | 23 Comments

What’s Full Of Twelve People And One Dog?

Our house.

That’s right a crew of ten is currently here shooting another exciting glossy magazine feature about our home. And this time there’s even a hair & make-up lady and a wardrobe stylist. We’ve never felt so important… or self conscious (here’s hoping we don’t look like giant nerds on film!). The rest of the mob consists of an assistant to the wardrobe stylist, the photographer of course, his two assistants, the creative director, the prop stylist, his assistant, and a videographer. Of course Burger’s making lots of friends and faithfully following all the people whizzing around with reflectors, tripods, and pillows. In short: it’s chaos. Beautiful, orchid-riddled chaos. As proof, check out this shot of our sunroom chock full of props and equipment:

And we wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s honestly more fun than a barrel of monkeys. We’ll tell you guys more when we can, but for now we’ll just have to leave you a hint about which mag we’ll be in next April. Here’s your clue:

Feel free to guess, and stay tuned for all the details as soon as we’re allowed to spill the beans…

    I’m guessing Martha Stewart. I think their Easter issue one year had a very similar photo on the cover.

    Ohhh I get it… the Nest! Though I must admit my first thought was Martha Stewart. She just loves that robin’s egg blue color.

    Whahoo! Thanks for all the kind words and for all the guesses (all of which were very good). You know we’ll tell you more when we can- and of course we’ll scan the magazine so everyone can see it (even if you live somewhere that doesn’t carry it). So fear not- you’ll all get to check things out… but it might be a little while before we can spill the beans.

    xoxo,
    Sherry
