Our Apartment in HGTV Magazine


I'm totally freaking out. The article looks amazing but I can't help but to be riddled with feelings of insecurity. Will people like our place? What if they don't? Will they have expected more out of me? Is it good enough? Am I good enough? Does that shirt make me look fat? Can I redecorate now?!

If you didn't already think of me as a little crazy- welcome, nice to finally meet you. Trying to chill out and enjoy what was truthfully a dream come true, thank you so much Team HGTV:) The April Issue hits newsstands on March 12th.  Go out and get ya one!! Meanwhile here are some in process and before pics below. xo!

(yes, that is my mother. no matter how old you are, sometimes you just need your momma to tone your crazy down:)

    1. Hi Eva! I love that you used your lunch break to snatch up a copy, and, you remembered my drapes! I will try to take more pics to share, meanwhile, the lamp is lampsplus.com and I shared a link on today's post! Thank you for reading!

  22. At the risk of sounding like one of those crazy (we all have a little bit of it in us) "love everyone hippies" I just wanted to tell you that as you, as you are, are good enough. Complete with all of your talents, like the ones that HGTV noticed and chose to showcase, and flaws, which make you human, you are good enough. Congratulations, Roxy. You totally deserve this.
