I’m honoured to be in the February 2018 Romantic Homes Magazine, their French style edition.
Today I’ve been busy doing a photoshoot for a Valentine’s day high tea party I’ve set up but I had to stop and take a moment to share with you that I’m in Romantic Homes magazine! It’s a dream come true! Their February edition that is out in stores now and I can’t believe I have 10 pages in it!!
Also, my friend Anita from Cedar Hill Farmhouse is on the cover! Congratulations, my friend. It is well deserved. Her home is the definition of French charm.
I have to say, I’m absolutely LOVING romantic homes now. I mean it was always an amazing magazine but I love the new updates. It just seems more packed with house tours and links to some very cool stuff. And this issue is so full of French goodness. There is a chateau tour in this edition and some amazing homes. Well done, Courtney! And thank you for reaching out to me!
I’m so ecstastic! I work so hard on this little blog of mine and at the same time my book deadline was due the magazine was hoping for spring photos of my home for this edition.
There was still no guarantee that I was going to make it in time but I spent a day cleaning and setting up my home for the photoshoot and the next morning I took the photos.
When things look effortless and pretty, there is usually more work that goes in behind the scenes.
But I’m sure you already know that.
Because there’s no way my house always looks this clean with kids running around and projects spread over countertops and the dining room table.
I was a little sad they didn’t put the image of my armoire in the magazine because I talked about it in the article but I’m sure they have a hard time picking which photos to use when I send them over hundreds (LOL!).
I just wanted to say again thanks for all your love and support!
And next week is the start of some pretty Valentine’s Day posts so you have time to get inspired.
PS: I purchased the prayer beads at the Rachel Ashwell store in Santa Monica but I found them for sale HERE!
Congratulations!! That is very exciting and well deserved. I haven’t subscribed to Romantic Homes for several years, but since Courtney has become Editor, it has vastly improved.
Thank you! Isn’t the magazine amazing now?
Hugs, Jamie
Congratulations Jamie, your home is so beautiful! I can’t wait to pick up a copy! I also love Anita’s blog so it will be easy to find the magazine at the store!
I do have one question, where did you get those amazing wooden beads with the wooden heart? There so pretty!
Karen
Thank you! And yes, you just have to look for Anita’s living room on the magazine 😉
Okay so I got the wooden prayer beads at the Rachel Ashwell store in Santa Monica but I’ve recently found them at a local store here in Vancouver called The Cross. You can google it but I’ll also leave an affiliate link in the post. Thanks for the reminder! I meant to add it to my post.
Hugs, Jamie
Congrats!!!!

So excited to see the magazine and a great excuse to hunker down with a nice cup of tea on a Sunday afternoon! And am really looking forward to the High Tea shoot…my daughter and I are planning a shower in March for my niece and the theme is High Tea! I carry https://sloanetea.com/ in my store…fabulous tea! The Heavenly Cream is her signature blend and is probably what I will be enjoying as I peruse the magazine! Congratulations Jamie!
Oh perfect! I’ve been taking photos all day and yesterday I made scones from the Empress hotel’s recipe. They are soooo good! I’ll be sharing the recipe on my blog Monday!
I’ve seen that tea before and the tins are gorgeous! I love a creamy earl grey, is that what the heavenly cream is like? Let me know if you sell from your store.
Tea & magazines are my favorite!
Hugs, Jamie
Congratulations, everything looked nice.
Thanks so much Carolyn!

Hi Shawnna! I haven’t seen it yet here in Canada but that’s not surprising as it takes awhile but I’ve heard people buy it now in stores.

Hi Jamie,
How exciting! Congratulations! I can’t even imagine…..I’ve followed you since almost the beginning and then when you moved into this current home, and what a transformation! I absolutely love your bedroom! A well deserved honor, your home is magnificent! If you don’t mind me asking, where do you find the natural large beads with the heart? I have looked and looked and haven’t had any luck, at all. Thank you!
