TLC Trading Spaces Viewing Party – Home Lifestyle Bloggers, Influencers

April 6, 2018 By Nancy McNulty Leave a Comment

Forest Home Media is co-hosting a viewing party for TLC’s Trading Spaces reboot this Saturday, April 7 with Nashville Interiors magazine at the beautiful Novel Music Row.  If you are a home lifestyle blogger or social media influencer, contact us at pr@foresthomemedia.com to join us Saturday or our Facebook group – the Nashville Influencers.

Forest Home Media is co-hosting with Nashville Interiors magazine a viewing party for TLC’s reboot of Trading Spaces.

Trading Spaces originally aired in 2000 and quickly become an epic television show where two sets of neighbors swapped homes and with the help of designers and carpenters designed a room on a budget of $1,000 in two days!

The show is back with the same premise but double the budget says new cast member John Gidding. Gidding was in Nashville as headliner for last September’s Home Show, with PR for the event coordinated by FHM. Gidding shared the good news he would be joining the cast!

You’ll remember Gidding as popular host and designer of HGTV’s Curb Appeal. He’s a design expert who, with his experience in residential, commercial and landscape architecture as well as urban and graphic design, transforms average homes into sculptural showpieces.

Born and raised in Istanbul to a Turkish mother and an American father, Gidding incorporates his multicultural aesthetic into his architectural projects. At the age of 15, he moved to Switzerland for boarding school, where he dedicated himself to a two-year intensive art program, graduating with an International Baccalaureate degree.

John moved to the States to go to Yale earning an undergrad degree and then received his masters in architecture from Harvard.

Be sure you follow along with him on Facebook and Instagram @JohnGidding and we will be live Tweeting via @NashInteriors or @NashNancyPR.

From Celebrating Everything To Succulent Décor – Blog Round Up

September 16, 2017 By Nancy McNulty Leave a Comment

As the cobbler’s children have no shoes, Forest Home Media creates hundreds of blogs for clients and the Southeastern consortium of creatives, The Southern C, and now it’s past time for a Forest Home Media blog wrap up!

Celebrate Everything With Darcy Miller

After spending time with founding editor of Martha Stewart Living Weddings, author and new fun friend Darcy Miller at the Southern C Summit and her Nashville book tour, I treated myself to her incredible book, “Celebrate Everything! Fun Ideas To Bring Your Parties To Life.”

Darcy-Miller

My first thought was to find out what Martha thinks about the book. In her kind forward she shares, “I suggest you use this book for inspiration first, then as instruction….Darcy’s sources are generously shared.” When you are being inspired to take your parties to the next level, how absolutely awesome to have this how-to. Martha was spot on, #obviously.

Darcy-Miller-Celebrate-Everything!-Fun-Ideas-To-Bring-Your-Parties-To-Life

 

When I’m bored, I plan parties in my head and Darcy has me spinning with ideas to try.   This book could be a little overwhelming if you don’t approach it with the spirit conveyed early by the author. Even if you don’t D-I-Y it, Do-It-Together (D-I-T)! So let’s dig in to just a few of my favorite things. Click here to read more on The Southern C!

Meet RealSimple.com Lifestyle Editor Sarah Yang

As a young girl growing up in sunny Pasadena, California, RealSimple.com Lifestyle Editor Sarah Yang’s middle school aspirations included being a NYC journalist. (Love that focus and determination!) Regular meetings with Sarah is just one of the perks of being a home lifestyle publicist for me. She’s part of an impressive and inspiring field of young, professional women having a huge impact on shelter magazines especially their digital and social media operations. Find out more on what inspires her in this fun Q&A for The Southern C.

 

Video Marketing

Recently, I had the pleasure of helping new Trading Places designer John Gidding with his first Facebook Live! On this blog for The Southern C, I share “Video Marketing For Your Business: 3 Platforms and How to Use Them.”

Domino Book Review

After working with Domino magazine on a Facebook Live for our March 2017 House for Hope Designer Show House, I also did a book review of“Domino: Your Guide to a Stylish Home” by Domino Editorial Director Jessica Romm Perez and Shanni Silver, Domino’s director of digital content, which was SO helpful during a spring bathroom renovation. Click here for more on the 272-page, beautiful, hardcover book that is so much more than a stylish addition to your coffee table.

Succulent Decor Tips And Upcoming Parade of Homes!

From aesthetic beauty to health benefits, weaving succulents into your home décor can be achieved through several helpful tips from Nashville-based plant and floral rock star designer Tim Riffle, Tim Riffle Environments. Click here for the Southern C blog on “Designer Tim Riffle’s Tips for Using Succulents in Home Décor.” And, I’m super excited Forest Home Media will be working with Tim once again on the English Country home of builder Castle Homes for the October Nashville Parade of Homes. Click here for more info on the event.

Finally, take a trip to my hometown, Franklin, Tennessee, and a few of my favorite coffee shops, restaurants and places to stay and to shop! Click here for more on The Southern C of my tour of “The Charm Of Historic Franklin, Tennessee.”
