Hire her, Martha.
For Briana Campbell, a.k.a MatchGirl of Unemployed Brooklyn fame (remember her?) desperate times are calling for some creative and crafty measures. Briana, a Greenpoint bloger who has turned being unemployed into a full-time job, is still without paid work, and now she’s taking a new, and hit-me-over-the-head-with-it, approach toward securing her dream gig of working for Martha Stewart. The result? Hire Me Martha, Briana’s month-and-half-old blog devoted solely to getting hired by the food/home/craft/wedding/pets empire that is Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.
In October, reflecting upon her past year of unemployment, Briana took stock of her skills, interests and passions, and decided to start a new blog that would serve as her online audition for Martha: Read the rest of this entry »

Martha Stewart was all up in the Brooklyn Flea in DUMBO on this gorgeous Sunday, tasting some goodies and generally causing a big commotion with her camera crew, entourage and French bulldogs in tow. But what brought the queen of home craftiness into the county of Kings?
Turns out she’s doing a whole hour on Brooklyn, which may also include her stops at Marlow and Sons, Marlow and Daughters, a rooftop garden and some of the different food factories. Her posse said the show (doubly titled Martha: The Martha Stewart Show) is supposed to air Nov. 10, though it’s subject to change. “We love Brooklyn,” she gushed to us (but only because we stalked her all afternoon) after sampling the wares from a handful of vendors. So which ones will make the TV cut? Read the rest of this entry »
Martha is bringing her skillz to BK
Everyone loves the Brooklyn Flea—Thurston Moore, Neil Patrick Harris, that guy from Flight of the Conchords, and now… Martha Stewart!
We’ve got confirmation from two different vendors that the wreath-making-one herself is going to be popping in to the Fort Greene flea market on Saturday to film an episode of her show, the eponymously named Martha. Vendors said her staff stopped by on a recent weekend to sample some of the items and scope the place out. She normally shoots at Chelsea Studios on West 26th Street, so she’s not that far away to begin with. Read the rest of this entry »
Ms. Hire Me Martha, Briana Campbell (blond, lower right) at Martha's Blog Show
For a site not explicitly about crafting, cooking, decorating, gardening or any other domestic pastime (although we do enjoy all of those), we have sort of an on-again, on-again relationship with Martha Stewart. Today was Martha’s Blog Show, and we were there, along with a bunch of mommy bloggers from Philly and a studio-full of brightly-dressed house & home chroniclers. And Martha had quite an array of, well, Martha bloggers: Daughter Alexis was there, with her blogging-partner, Jennifer Koppelman-Hutt (the Whatever Radio duo); there was Jeff Blumenkrantz, a guy cooking and blogging his way through Martha Stewart’s Cooking School (yes, he knows the movie); and then there was Brooklyn’s Briana Campbell, still looking for that perfect job, now with her big shot, face to face with… Martha herself.
