Although Sally and Raymond (the camera man) were absolutely wonderful to work with and helped me feel very comfortable, I still think I looked (and sounded like!) a dork on camera. We only did one take per project and it's so hard not to be critical of yourself. I am proud of myself for just doing it though- I was beyond nervous.

Paper Lined Tray
No Sew Bench Seat
Two of my Houston friends have also been featured on Sally's Shabby Chic, Amanda Eck (Amanda Carol Interiors) and Cyndy (The Creativity Exchange). They both did great and were also so sweet to email me after my segments with kind words, which I really appreciated.
Thank you Fox 26 Houston for the opportunity!

I'm off to meet up with Cassie, should definitely be a good day!

Congrats on the TV appearance! I think you look and sound great:) But I always hate seeing myself on camera too. My voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard to me! You look adorable!
ReplyDeleteYou look very natural! Great job, even I could try this :) I love the bench seat!
ReplyDeleteI think you did awesome! I hate seeing myself on camera or hearing my voice. You're a natural, and your arms look awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you- I've been working out a bunch lately- glad someone noticed! :)
DeleteYou did so good! (And, your nails looked really nice.) I would've been sweating bullets.
ReplyDeleteHave fun today!
Ha! I made sure to get my nails Shellaced since Amanda told me they'd be doing close ups on my hands! Thanks Amanda!
DeleteYou did fabulous, Megan!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! Love the tray idea, will be doing soon! Thanks!

You did amazing Megan! Congratualations on the feature!
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing! Congratulations! You look drop dead gorgeous and my guess is they will be asking you to do another segment. I love watching all the opportunities come your way.

Are you kidding?! I think you did great --- I would have been a rambling mess, stumbling over my words! And such a great idea about the plexi-glass....just as soon as my tufted ottoman gets here, I'm definitely revamping a tray to add some color!
ReplyDeleteWish I would have seen this on TV!! Great job and congrats! :)
Thank you! That plexi glass idea was from Lauren (Simply LKJ)- great tip.
DeleteYou did awesome girl! You looked like a natural. And your arms are killer - dang girl - seriously - hot momma arms!
ReplyDeleteLike I told you earlier- you look ah-mazing and did not sound or seem nervous at all! So glad you did it- doesnt it feel good to try something out of your comfort zone? Im sure they will be calling you back for more!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! I thought you looked so pretty, and you sounded very professional, yet friendly and engaging too (a hard mix to accomplish). Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYou did an amazing job and you have a great voice for TV! I am trying both of your tutorials! Congrats!

How fun!! You did awesome!!
ReplyDeleteAhhh! You're famous. Megan, you did an awesome job. So calm, and relaxed. Really well done, friend. I LOVED seeing you on camera. Have a great day today with Cassie.
ReplyDeleteI think you did GREAT! I would have been so nervous!!
ReplyDeleteWhat I just realized, and it's a funny part of the blogging community, while we all share pictures, of course we don't know what your voice sounds like, or just how short you are!
Two thumbs up ;)
Great job, Megan! You didn't look nervous at all. I've done a couple of T.V. spots, & we truly are our own worst critics.

Girl you were awesome! And gorgeous as always!! Can't wait to see what God has in store for you next!! :) You deserve it!
ReplyDeleteYou seriously did an awesome job- no dorkiness at all! Absolutely loved the clips. I am very impressed : ) Someone may have a career as a TV show host one day!!
ReplyDeleteThat was so fun to watch! Thank you for sharing those ideas. And you look so great, what an inspiration! Can you share some workout tips? What's your favorite workout to do? And when do you make time for working out?
ReplyDeleteaaawwww you look amazing Megan and you did great!
ReplyDeleteyou did great and looked beautiful too! thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!!! I'll have to check out that segment on Sat. mornings. I've never heard of it! You look amazing, and yes, I noticed your arms in that pic immediately. The hard work has paid off!
ReplyDeleteYou where sweet and a real natural..I would never of known you where nervous..good job..great projects..I actually did the same thing to my seat in my entryway. Cheers Frances
ReplyDeleteyou did awesome! you have the cutest voice! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, great job! You look beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI thought you did a really nice job. You seemed more relaxed in the "No Sew" segment but I think both turned out well. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteWe shot the "no sew" first!
DeleteYou are so stinkin' cute!!!
ReplyDeleteMegan, you are a natural on camera! You are so poised and gracious and beautiful. I enjoyed both of the clips. So fun and congratulations to you! Enjoy your day with Cassie.
ReplyDeleteThere is NOTHING to be critical of! You looked absolutely adorable, and came off as a total natural on camera! Aside from that, your home is even more lovely on video. Congratulations!!

ReplyDeleteYou were fantastic! Such a natural! :) And LOVED your dress!
ReplyDeleteThank you- that dress is from NY & Co.
DeleteThank you guys for your sweet comments!!
ReplyDeleteI think you did a FABULOUS job. However, I was laughing at the goofy background music (which I know you had nothing to do with.) Congrats!
ReplyDeleteYou have the sweetest voice! So relaxed. You are such an inspiration to me. Well done xx
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job! I love that fabric you used!! What kind of blinds do you have in your dining room? I have been looking at different treatments but I have plantations in most rooms so am thinking blinds may be good to tie everything together. I have been on the fence about using blinds in my dining room but I think your looks very nice.
ReplyDeleteGreat job! You looked natural in front of the camera!! I'm sure there will be more in the future!!!
ReplyDeleteSo funny because I was on my Fox channel last week for the first time too! I think you looked adorable :)
ReplyDeleteYou did a fantastic job!!

How fun you got to do this! You did a great job!
ReplyDeleteYou did such a fantastic job Megan! It's not easy powering through our fears but what a great feeling when we do! You looked like you have done it forever!
ReplyDeleteOh how fun to see and hear you in person (kinda). You looked so cute and comfortable in front of the camera. Such a natural
