I tried to get a picture that resembles the mom life, so I had a picture on my kitchen before, that on my
opinion it would be perfect. My kitchen have great natural light. Ended up that the cabinets get too
much attention, and this picture did not look nice on the magazine cover. So I ended up
choosing a profile picture a friend of mine took last fall.
The two topics I chose are topics that I consider important to be a happier mom, that is set up disci-
pline to our kids and tips on how to save money, organize the home better and take less time cleaning
the home.

2. Next I started to look for a photo that would be a focal point of the magazine
cover.
