Rachael Ray Show + Wrap It Up Pretty

Before we send you off into the weekend (where in the coming weeks we'll actually be posting some amazing new home inspired content), we wanted to let you know that yours truly will be on the Rachael Ray Show THIS Monday, July 16th!! I'm talking all things DIY with a fun focus on details that pull double duty. And the styling is perfect for a late Summer / Fall bride. So check here for listings in your area and make sure to set your DVR! Wouldn't it be so freaking cool if all of you watched the show and ratings skyrocketed and bam...we're tv regulars. Yep, dream come true status.



All in all it was a CRAZY fun, super exciting experience and Rachael was nothing but loveliness. She was kind and welcoming and her staff was so wonderful. It's funny being on the other side of the camera...no matter how many times you do it, it still seems all sparkly and new. From the set to the audience to the cameras and the anticipation, it's a bundle of energy and I loved every last minute of it. So please, please, pretty please tune on in and enjoy the ride with us! We'll be doing an e-toast with all of you!
