In the spirit of the season, Matthew is offering two bookazines for The Decorated Tree to give away! All you have to do is like The Decorated Tree Facebook page. If you've already liked my Facebook page, let me know you've also visited Matthew's site by leaving a comment in the comments section of this post. I will have a drawing to announce the two lucky winners on November 22nd (Thanksgiving day).
SINCE THIS BLOG called The Decorated Tree was begun on August 17, 2009, it has fast become less of a hobby and more of a creative pursuit. This is my 88th blog post, but it announces my first magazine article. I've designed hundreds of magazine articles over the course of my career, but never have been the subject of one! It's truly incredible to be in such good company in the pages of Matthew Mead's Holiday!
THIS IS JUST A TEASER of much more to be found in the sumptuous pages of this year's edition of Matthew Mead's Holiday. And The Decorated Tree is elated to be a part of it!

For some reason, Darryl, your blog disappeared from my reading list, only to reappear when I was switched over to the new version of blogger. It's great to catch up with what you've been doing, and lovely news that you have an article published too - you deserve it!!

DeleteJust bought Matthew's magazine and your ebook from Blurb. It looks fantastic. I've always wanted to decorate with twig trees. I'm inspired by all the varieties of trees in your book.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to putting my own spin on one for Christmas. Congratulations on your feature in Matthew's magazine.
