hilarious. i might have the same pot and the same plant on my table right now.
ReplyDeleteSarah's interview was wonderful, and I learned some new things...I didn't know about the entrepreneurial streak. Some things the interview didn't cover: How generous you are with your skills and knowledge of design...how willing to volunteer to teach a class to student wives decorating on mini budgets,for example and and how down to earth and friendly you are to everyone. Caitlin is definitely a "world class" designer. But I may be prejudiced. She is also the world's best daughter-in-law.
ReplyDeletejust read the interview and loved it. so much good information. i love the geometric/floral designs together as well. love love love them.
ReplyDeleteI loved reading the interview, you are such a talented young woman. I am so excited to have found your blog, I have already ordered some Celerie Kemble fabric after seeing how you have used it in your designs.
ReplyDeleteI can relate about the cost of magazines in Dubai, didn't stop me from getting my fix though! Just had to hide some of them from my hubby!

What a great interview! I'd LOVE to see more pics of your daughter's room ~ the image on the interview is SO beautiful! :)
ReplyDeleteLOVED the interview. You are so well spoken!! Good job girl. Still loving the blog and I get so excited when I have a new update on my google reader. BTW did you set one up? You need to, it will seriously change your life forever. Also, saw that you got a new sponsor....awesome. You are amazing girl...absolutely amazing.
ReplyDeleteI loved reading that!
ReplyDeleteLoved reading this! You are very well-spoken indeed. I agree with mom--your talent is made so much remarkable by how generous you are in sharing it! Our home wouldn't be nearly so lovely without your amazing design instincts and willingness to help us out!
ReplyDeleteHey Caitlin! I've been reading your blog for quite some time now. I'd like to think that I've commented before and just don't remember, but knowing myself and how terrified I am of commenting on strangers' blogs, chances are that this is the first one I've left one for you.
ReplyDeleteI just have to let you know that I think that you are incredibly talented, inspirational, beautiful, and just plain old fantastic! I LOVED reading your interview. You remind me of a stronger, braver, more talented version of myself. I've always loved art and for as long as I can remember I've wanted to be an interior designer. My mom eventually convinced me to do architecture instead. I studied architecture in NYC for two years and absolutely hated it (architecture, not New York- I loved NY!) Now I'm considering other options- maybe interior design, maybe photography, maybe something else. I'm actually in the process of applying to Parsons for interior design.
I actually spoke once with my bishop about maybe doing interior design. He tried so hard to convince me not to to it, telling me that "tying to be an interior designer is like trying to be a Broadway star." He told me that I would just end up waiting tables in some diner, that I'd never be able to make enough money and that making enough money is far more important than enjoying what you do. It was all just a little bit discouraging. It doesn't help that my parents agree with him.
Sorry for the long comment. I guess I really just want to thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you for being yourself, for being ambitious, for following your dreams, for sharing your story, and for inspiring me. I think you are wonderful:)
