I have a wonderful new magazine to share, Celebrating Everyday Life. This special issue is out on the newstands now, with 100+ ideas to decorate, feast, and make merry for the fall and winter seasons!
Celebrations expert Jennifer Carroll teamed up with Country Sampler to bring this all-new issue filled with fabulous themes, ideas, projects and recipes to create fun-filled get-togethers for the fall and winter holidays, as well life’s special moments.
Jennifer Carroll, Founder, Editor-in-Chief and Keeper of The Magical Fairy Dust brings her 21 years of experience as an interior designer and event planner. You can visit Jennifer at her blog, Celebrating Everyday Life, where you can find her beautiful tablescapes, DIYs, and entertaining and decorating tips.
In this issue you can enjoy a Bountiful Harvest, throw a Rootin’ Tootin’ Cowboy Party, prepare Perfectly Pumpkin Pie or Roasted Pumpkin Soup. . .
Or celebrate with a spook-tacular Halloween fête with a fantastical twist.
Find winter and Christmas inspiration for a Merry Magnolia Christmas Table, a Shabby Chic Christmas, a Highland Holiday and Passion for Plaid, and Joyeux Noel.
Or bake a batch of homemade Gingerbread Ornaments and find a Christmas simmer recipe to infuse the air with the scents of the season.
My little Potting Shed was thrilled to included in this issue!
You can see her dressed for fall with pumpkins, mums and corn stalks for a celebration of fall and harvest season!
And you can find some of your favorite bloggers/contributors like Yvonne of StoneGable, Anita of Cedar Hill Farmhouse, Marion of Miss Mustard Seed and Vanessa of A Fanciful Twist in this issue too.
This is a wonderful magazine to curl up with! I found a copy at my local Harris Teeter grocery store, but look for it at Michaels, JoAnn’s, Barnes & Noble, or you can purchase it online from Country Sampler in print or download a digital version.
You can visit Jennifer at her blog, Celebrating Everyday Life, where you can find her beautiful tablescapes, DIYs, and entertaining and decorating tips. Thank you Jennifer for including my Potting Shed in your premier issue!
Thank you for your visit, sharing with:
Metamorphosis Monday, The Scoop,
Wow Us Wednesdays, Feathered Nest Friday
Foodie Friday and Everything Else Link Party
Luv your Autumn decorations on your potting shed. Our pumpkins won’t be ripe for about six weeks.
Beautiful pictures, love fall decorations, I will check out this magazine. I used to take Country Sampler for a while but you can just get too many magazines and not enough time to read them all. I am glad to see this one has a digital version.
How nice! Congrats on the well-deserved feature!
Congratulations on your feature! I need to find a copy of this magazine. I would love the features on Christmas, plus to see your little potting shed and (I think I recognize) Vanessa’s beautiful garden will definitely make me smile. Now I have something fun to look at this weekend in between studio time. YAY!
Congratulations!! It’s always nice to be recognized for your talents!! ❤️👍🏻❤️👍🏻❤️
What a lovely looking magazine. It is only a pity I can’t buy it in England. Still, your blog fills the gap for me :)
Congratulations on being featured in this lovely magazine!
Thank you so much for being part of the premier issue Mary! I am so honored to include you in this dream-come-true project with me!! What a joy!!! Your potting shed is one of my most favorite places of all time. Thank you for continuing to inspire my imagination to generate more magic fairy dust!!! ;-)
Congratulations on being published… how exciting! Looks like a beautiful and fun new magazine! 🍂🍁
So tell me dear friend, what in heaven’s name is keeping you from being a magazine? Why you are doing the work every week….Stylist, Photographer, Designer, Gardener…what are you waiting for? I mean really! Not to, in any way, deminish, in any way your wonderful blog. At the very least you could be a Contributing Editor, a la Sunday Hendriksen, at magazines like Victoria or Romantic Homes, etc. Your photograph’s alone are worthy of Martha Stewart, while I’m sure her publication is probably all “In House”, other magazines Country Living, Better Homes and Garden, Elle, Veranda, etc don’t have better quality than you. The freedom you enjoy being on your own may be a reason you choose to do what you do, but Holy Moly, girlfriend, You are an explosion of talent, you can negotiate your own schedule. Thinkaboutit! Just love you.
Congratulations on being featured – very well deserved! You always have so many creative ideas and it’s good to see you getting a little recognition for it! Blessings to you…..
Congratulations on your little potting shed being featured, Mary! You certainly deserve the honor! Visiting your potting shed is always a magical time for me, in oohing, ahhing, and playing along with you. Hooray, Mary!
Thanks for introducing us to this beautiful magazine and congratulations on being featured. I will definitely be on the lookout for this one. Dianne

Hi Mary, I just downloaded my digital copy of Celebrating Everyday Life. Just to excited about seeing the Potting Shed in this publication to go search for a copy when I can just click and voilà it’s ready for me to peruse! All 116 pages!!!

Wow!!!! Congratulations on your magazine!!!! It looks full of lots of inspiration I will have to go on a hunt to find this God bless and thank you Please lets all remember in our prayers Florida, Texas and all the areas with these fires
Yes, it’s a great issue Norma! Thoughts and prayers for all those in Texas impacted by Harvey and in the path of Irma.
You and The Potting Shed deserve this tribute and so much more, like a whole magazine!! Your posts about the adorable shed are always a treat, every time and every season! I must agree with some of the other comments, you definitely possess the talent and skills to publish your very own magazine. Your blog devotees alone would ensure success. For now, I’ll look forward to enjoying “Celebrating Everyday Life” magazine. Sincere Congratulations and Thank-you!
Thank you for kind words and your high praise Ellen! {blush}
Found the magazine and am just sitting down to peruse it. What a nice Friday afternoon activity! Was excited to see another blogger I follow, Anita Joyce, has her book featured. Can’t wait to see your potting shed decked out for fall!
Hi Donna, It’s a wonderful issue! Yes, Anita of Cedar Hill Farmhouse, Yvonne of StoneGable, Marion, aka, Miss Mustard Seed and Vanessa of A Fanciful Twist, are featured in this issue too.
Mary-
How wonderful to be featured in the new magazine “Celebrating Everyday Life”. I agree with others… why do you not have your own magazine? Congratulations! I hope to see more of your gifts and talents featured frequently in the magazine.
Thanks so much for your kind words Beth!
Thank you for introducing me to this new mag. Sure I will love it if you are in it! Looks great! Have you ever been to Holden Arts and Crafts in Newland, nc. Moss and twig everything and perfect for the She Shed. Thanks for all your inspiration!
Congratulations Mary on being in the magazine. I agree with all the comments above.
You really should do a book! We’ve been telling you this for years. YOU REALLY SHOULD!
