january/february 2012 Display until Feb. 29, 2012 $4.95 testimonials New Hampshire Home: A true inspiration I am a resident of Deering, New Hampshire and Palm Beach, Florida. My design firms are located in Florida and I have several clients here in New Hampshire. I was delighted and surprised to receive a copy of your May/June issue and was completely blown away. It is the first magazine featuring high-end design that I have seen in New Hampshire. Needless to say, I could not wait to call Andi Axman and congratulate her on such a fine magazine. My partner Antiques as décor Gardening with kids A Mother s Day brunch and I have purchased several items featured in your ads over the past four days. We have two locations where we display museum quality clocks and fine furniture and are looking forward to advertising in your publication. Hats off to all involved! Extremely pleased. Steve McCall and Thomas R. Thomas (Hayfields Antiques) A quick note to let you know how grateful we are that we were mentioned in the March issue of New Hampshire Home. Even though our business was mentioned just once as a resource for a home you featured, we received two calls, both of which converted into landscape lighting installations/relationships which, in our experience, last many years. Most of our clients start out wanting to simply light a path or a garden bed or a group of trees. As years go by, however, they continually add to their lighting, allowing them to bring their outside rooms into their living space at night...

There were thirty members who had a morning with us, then went off to the Currier Museum of Art for the afternoon. The article in New Hampshire Home was one of the reasons they chose to visit us. Keep up the good work! A homeowner featured in January 2008, Home Is Where the Art Is
