When Debbie at Debbiedoo's came up with the idea of a magazine photo copy cat challenge, I thought oh how fun! Yes it was but also a lot more difficult then I imagined. First I had to find a photo in a magazine I would copy. It was hard since I had decided I only wanted to use items I already had. I narrowed it down to 3 photos and this one won by a mile!
I have a lot of green glass so felt like I could re-create this photo
It came out of this Magazine
Are you ready....It wasn't easy but here is my version
To me I captured the essence of the photo....the variety of greens against the white background
The magazine photo again and
mine! I'm very happy with it!
While taking the 'magazine' shot I also took additional photos
All the items in this vignette were from thrift stores.
Hope you enjoyed the Magazine Copy Cat Challenge. Please visit Debbiedoos and see how everyone else did in the challenge.
I am also joining Diann at
The Thrifty Groove for
Hugs,
Linda

You certainly did it! And, I love green glass, BTW!
Linda! This looks terrific - you did a marvelous job - I have done this in the past with some of my favorite Victoria Magazine pictures - it is fun, but it is harder than one thinks!
Hope you have a terrific weekend!

I actually think yours is better!!! Love the green! Sounds like a challenging and fun thing to do.
I'm with Ann, Linda. I think your photo is much better than the one in the magazine! Ha! Maybe this is going to be a new profession for you! Susan
Miss Linda you done GOOD!~ Better than good. I almost could not tell which was which. Love your photos, and I love your creative thought. It was fun, and I will do this again next month. Thank you for joining in.

Great job! Really like the colors and your flowers better.
You did such a wonderful job! I think I like yours better, because each item is like a familiar friend.
We're all going "I have one of those, and one of those."
Congratulations on a spectacular collection and presentation!
Wow this is spectacular! you did an amazing job recreating the look. I love all of your thrift store treasures.
That worked very well. I'm impressed. The sharp white background was a great foil.

oh my! yours is excellent and I like it even better than the magazine photo. Your pieces are beautiful and I am loving that green!
I forgot all about the magazine challenge! Maybe I still have time.
Wow! I love your version! Love the hobnail pitcher that you substituted! So pretty! Great job! Thanks for sharing.
absolutely perfect, right down to those flower sprigs. do you know, i looked thru 13 magazines that i happened to check out of the library that day. they were mostly country living, so i had nothing of what they were showing. i'm dissappointed, i so wanted to join debbie's party. good for you, this was the perfect picture for you to choose!
Hi and what a great copy cat you are! I love yours better.
be a sweetie,

I like your best. I like that you added the flowers. You did a great job.

Hi Linda,
You did a great job recreating the magazine photo...and you did it on a thrift store budget!

A plus for that one Linda - it was a great job! No kidding - looked just like if not better - the magazine photo.
