LIVE from The Martha Stewart Show in New York!

Good morning, everyone!

We're blogging LIVE from the set of The Martha Stewart Show in New York City, so keep your TVs on and your laptops close because it's going to be a very exciting morning!

Here I am at reception, Starbucks in hand. Thanks to Ralph Lauren for all the cool digs!

First, a little touching up...

A stop at the green room with a few of Martha's friends. Kathy Griffin, eat your heart out!

Then it was off to rehearsal...

Here I am with Martha in the green room, minutes before the show started.

This afternoon, be sure to log on for a full story, complete with plenty of behind-the-scenes pictures. In the meantime, happy blogging, everyone!

Happy New Year Eddie!
In my morning haze, fresh from celebrating at the casino (imagine), I rolled over, grabbed the remote and was lucky enough to catch a rerun of Martha’s blogger edition. I couldn’t wait to get home to my laptop and check out your blog. I was enraptured. You are just a delight, smart and accessible, warm and chic...
I wish you and your partner all "good things" in 2009, as well as much deserved success. I look forward to all of your inspiration as I re-invent my family's nest this year.
Best,
Wendy

Hi Eddie,
My friend told me all about you and I already love what I see!

I was wondering if you could help me with holiday decorating. My family is jewish, but all I want is to have my house decorated for the holidays with wreaths and garland and ornaments, etc...is it possible to do without feeling to much like Christmas?

Eddie - I love watching you on Top Design and I think you are well on your way to your own show/book/brand! Your style feels so much more accessible to me than Preston's (not another hotel room!) and Nathan's (fabulous but too eclectic for me).

I'm wondering where on the web site I can pose a question to you, so I'll try here. How does a newbie go about working with a designer. Can a designer provide a consult on a space or decorating a space for a fee? Can you hire a designer, give them a budget, and let them complete the space for you (paint/flooring/furniture/decorating)? I find myself getting overwhelmed by liking many kinds of styles so its hard pairing down LOTS of ideas that appeal to me. Can a designer help me work through this? Any suggestions on identifying your own style, and working with a designer would be great.

Thanks and good luck on Top Design!
Agnes

Your bow ties remind me of a story by David Sedaris, which in turn makes me smile. Love your style!
