Your Guide to Pitching Your Home to House Beautiful
So your dream is to get published in House Beautiful this year! I’m here to help navigate you through the process by giving you some shortcuts.
Set the Stage with Your Unique Space by Telling a Compelling Story
Before we dive into the details, ensure you’ve got a home, kitchen, or room that’s House Beautiful worthy. We’re talking about spaces that stand out, have compelling stories, and resonate with the House Beautiful readership and audience vibe.
Professional Interior Desing Photography Only – No iPhones Allowed
Ensure you submit professional interior design photography. House Beautiful won’t settle for anything less, so leave those iPhone shots for Instagram and TikTok!
Craft a Tale That Speaks to HB Readers
