On Tuesday I attended the taping of the Martha Stewart Show with my friend Megan. Did you get to see the episode? It was so good! I didn’t want the filming to end because we were so thoroughly entertained.
Highlights:
-Rosie was brilliant and super funny.
-Martha was gorgeous in skinny jeans and super tall heels.
-Alexis disagreed with her mother as often as she good — luckily Rosie was an excellent mediator.
-We had terrific seats — on the front row, directly across from the craft section of the studio.
-We got to chat about crafting with Rosie during a commercial break.
-We got to chat with Martha about dyeing wool after the show.
-And we got a whole bag full of freebies — Martha glitter, a Dremel Glue Gun, a Munny doll, a Michaels gift card and Martha’s amazing new Encyclopedia of Crafts. Sweet!
Afterwards, we stopped for lunch at Chelsea Market. And I have to say, you can’t really beat a day like that.

Have fun! They hooked me up with 5 of her new books to giveaway at my christynelson.net website so that is going to be lots of fun this week!
How cool! Have fun!
Oh my goodness, an audience member? You lucky, lucky girl. Have fun! Post pictures! Tell us all about it!!! I already preordered the book so it should ship today. Hooray!
Hi Gabrielle! I have been catching up on your blog today, and just read about the big move. #1 thing to remind you of about the west…THE MOUNTAINS! Oh, the mountains!! I am a Utah transplant to New England. I love it here. It’s beautiful, but there is nothing like those mountains. (Hope that is a happy moving thought for you.) Have fun at the Martha show!
FUN!!! I’ll watch and wave ;o)
thanks for the heads up on the martha craft show! i set the dvr. have a great time. . .
I bet it will be a blast!
so jealous! i watched that show and cant wait to get the book! You got lots of great freebies today!
Can’t wait to read the update. I LOVE Martha Stewart. And her books. Not so much her show but everything else she does. My friends call me Martha which is the biggest honor I can get. How was it???
Darn, saw this too late! How fun for you. Can’t wait to hear all about it!
oh what fun! I would have love to have been at that taping. I think Alexis and Jenn are hysterical. My fav is when Jenn calls Alexis ‘Dark Martha.’ Classic! Have a great weekend!
Sounds like a dream day! I loved that show, the combination of the four of them made for a great energy!
Cool! Martha actually lives in my town, and I did see her once outside of her house, which was exciting but not as exciting as seeing a taping of her show and getting fabulous goodies!
I love that you chatted with Martha about dying wool. That is too perfect. thanks for sharing.
sounds divine!
Sounds like a great day! You will miss things like that when you leave NY but you will find new things that are exciting!
I saw the show! How is the encyclopedia? When I was watching them tell about all that is included in the book, I started drooling :)
How fun! I am so glad you posted pics and gave us a recap! Such awesome goodies on top of an awesome day!
oh dear, i have to disagree about martha in the skinny pants and heels… but still i would love to have been there too!
I have a sign that hangs in my home..it says “Martha Stewart DOESN’T Live Here!”
To be honest, I love some of her books, but not her!
Now Alexis and Jenn… they are a riot!
Lucky you!
I tivo’d the episode (the rerun) on FLN because I missed the original broadcast so I knew you were in the audience from one of your posts. I was so jealous! Martha, Rosie and all those giveaways- wut woo!
How cool! Soak it up, lady. That stuff is NOT available round these parts!
Wow Gabby, you’re SO awsome!
get out of here!!! What a fab day!!! I am so jealous!!!
My dream!
What a great day! Will you be joining Martha’s Circle too?
how fun! that is so cool!
How fun was that!?! Lucky you. Great pictures. I love seeing how those shows work in person.
I cannot even begin to express how jealous I am! Glad you had such a lovely day.
green. I am green. that is fabulous. xx,kris
How exciting! I would love to go to a taping with martha one day.
Totally cool!
I saw that show. It was great. I loved your commnet: “Alexis disagreed with her mother as often as she could…” So true! So funny!
Amazing! I would love to have a day like that. I love Martha and think Rosie is so funny.
How fabulous! What a day! Thanks for sharing with us!
WHATEVER, MARTHA is one of my husband’s favorite shows – the only one upon which we agree! He agreed that he would go to a taping of Martha’s show if Alexis and Jennifer were there.
Martha & Alexis appear tall or is it the angle? That would be so fun to do! I love Alexis & Jenn's show when I catch it.
How funny — I was at that show too! It was so much fun. Rosie was hilarious.
I am going to the tech show next week!! can't wait!
