15 Minutes of Fame: How We Took Center Stage and Why It Mattered

You could have knocked us over with a feather back in December when we won the Remodel, Blog & Win contest. Not only did we receive a $5,000 prize, we also earned a filmed interview with Meghan Carter of AskTheDecorator.com. Because Meghan’s schedule was busy, the shoot was set for June, which gave us several months to prepare the house for its close-up.

The long-awaited interview day finally arrived this past Saturday.

We could have taken more dramatic behind-the-scenes photos while lights, tripods, and cameras filled our small rooms, but at least we remembered to grab this shot with Meghan Carter after the interview.

Those smiles are genuine — we were thrilled to manage coherent sentences under the hot lights. Meghan and her crew were incredibly kind and professional, and we truly enjoyed the entire experience. We look forward to sharing the video interview with you when it’s released in a few weeks. Stay tuned for the full clip and a few highlights from the shoot.
