# Soft Haven Living Day 17 Approval Packet

Production date: 2026-06-17 PT  
Approval target date: 2026-06-17 PT  
Lane: Wednesday Nancy Meyers Kitchen Counter / save-first kitchen styling

## Packet Summary

- 2 TikTok timed-slide videos, 1080x1920 H.264, 25.6 seconds each, with silent visual masters for approval. TikTok 1 uses a revised V4 master with `Useful Coffee Tool` paired to the clear cappuccino slide and `One Warm Board` paired to the warm wood counter/tool slide. TikTok 2 uses a revised V3 playback-safe master rebuilt from the distinct designer-checklist V2 sequence so Todd has a playable approval video.
- 6 selected Jamendo review music options wired as Mission Control buttons for each video. Voiceover files are not music options.
- 10 Pinterest/static assets, using corrected revision assets for the subject-match failures flagged in QA, including Pin 1 rebuilt after Todd requested a visible counter/decor image, Pin 2 panned out and rebuilt again after Todd requested the lamp label be removed because no lamp is pictured, Pin 3 simplified after Todd noted the drawer handles looked artificial, Pin 4 rebuilt again with a `coffee corner` label, a non-coffee linen towel tile, and a swapped warm wood picture, Pin 5 rebuilt again after Todd requested only four centered pictures, Pin 6 rebuilt after Todd noted the evening post looked like breakfast and not every caption item was pictured, Pin 7 rebuilt with a cappuccino image, Pin 9 panned out to show empty counter space, and Pin 10 rebuilt again after Todd requested the woven texture picture be deleted from the post.
- 3 Instagram Story frames, using corrected V4 Story 2 after Todd requested the Cappuccino title change to `coffee corner` and the linen picture become a visible linen towel rather than coffee, and corrected V6 Story 3 after Todd requested the cutting-board picture match the same counter visual family as the other poll images.

No public posting, scheduling, replies, DMs, source-list links, product URLs, affiliate links, product tags, disclosures, Beacons edits, or paid actions were taken.

- Revision note: `revisions/tiktok-01-board-coffee-swap-v4/revision-approval-note.md`

Caption:
`A Nancy Meyers-style kitchen counter is usually quieter than it looks: one useful anchor, one warm light moment, one natural texture, and enough empty space to make it feel collected. Save this before you style the counter again.`

CTA / hashtags:
`Save the counter formula. #nancymeyersstyle #kitchencounterdecor #coastalgrandmother #kitchenstyling #softhavenliving`

Timing intent: TikTok Video 1, late morning or early afternoon PT. Use the exact silent master plus the highlighted and approved music option only after platform-native business/commercial audio verification.

### TikTok 2 - Designer Kitchen Tip

Files:

CTA / hashtags:
`Save the counter checklist. #interiordesigntips #kitchendecorideas #nancymeyerskitchen #coastalhome #softhavenliving`

## Music Options

Use these six Mission Control review buttons for both videos:

1. `music/selected-options/option-01-classical-instrumental-5783-meant-to-be.mp3` - Meant to Be, Rob Costlow

## Static Assets

Use these current approval assets:

1. `revisions/pin-01-counter-decor-v2/pin-01-nancy-meyers-kitchen-counter-v2.png` - title: `Nancy Meyers Kitchen Counter` - revised after Todd requested a visible counter with decor, not just cabinet imagery.
2. `revisions/pin-02-counter-rule-no-lamp-v4/pin-02-counter-rule-collection-v4.png` - title: `The Counter Rule Designers Use` - revised after Todd requested the lamp label be removed because no lamp is visible in the photo.
3. `revisions/pin-03-counter-look-cheap-simple-v4/pin-03-counter-look-cheap-v4.png` - title: `Things Making Your Counter Look Cheap` - revised after Todd requested a simpler image without the artificial-looking drawer handles.
4. `revisions/pin-04-source-board-coffee-corner-linen-v5/pin-04-kitchen-source-board-v5.png` - title: `Soft Haven Source Board` - V5 revised after Todd requested the linen towel picture not be coffee, the clear coffee title change to `coffee corner`, and the warm wood picture be swapped.
5. `revisions/pin-05-counter-decor-four-centered-v4/pin-05-counter-decor-edit-v4.png` - title: `Nancy Meyers Counter Edit` - V4 revised after Todd requested only four centered pictures.
6. `revisions/pin-06-evening-kitchen-no-duplicate-v6/pin-06-evening-kitchen-gift-guide-v6.png` - title: `Evening Kitchen Gift Guide` - V6 revised after Todd requested the woven texture picture be swapped so no picture repeats inside the post.
7. `revisions/pin-07-soft-coffee-corner-cappuccino-v2/pin-07-soft-coffee-corner-cappuccino-v2.png` - title: `Soft Coffee Corner` - revised after Todd requested a new picture with a nice cappuccino instead of reusing the "cheap counter" image.
8. `revisions/pin-08-empty-space-rule-centered-zoom-v2/pin-08-empty-space-rule-v2.png` - title: `Empty Space Rule` - revised after Todd requested the photo be panned down, centered, and slightly zoomed in

Pinterest description / search terms:
`Nancy Meyers kitchen counter styling, warm white kitchen decor, kitchen counter decor ideas, coastal grandmother kitchen, cutting board styling, clear glass pitcher kitchen, woven tray kitchen decor.`

Pinterest CTA: save-first only. Do not promise source links until source-list approval is ready.

## Instagram Stories

1. `stories/story-01-counter-reset.png` - counter reset hero
2. `revisions/story-02-coffee-corner-linen-v4/story-02-practical-piece-v4.png` - practical piece tip - revised again after Todd requested the `cappuccino` title become `coffee corner` and the linen picture become a visible linen towel rather than coffee: crock, bowl, coffee corner, and linen towel.
3. `revisions/story-03-counter-poll-cutting-board-obvious-v6/story-03-counter-poll-v6.png` - counter poll with a panned-out lamp tile, obvious cutting-board tile, and visible ceramic crock tile

Timing intent: morning, midday, and early evening Story queue. Poll/reply actions still require separate Todd approval before any public response.

## Approval Scope

Todd approval authorizes only the exact assets, captions/titles, CTAs/search terms, timing intent, and guardrails in this packet. Separate Todd approval is required before adding source links, product URLs, affiliate links, product tags, disclosures, auto DMs, auto replies, caption changes, CTA changes, music substitutions, platform reuse, or public account changes.

## Approval Decisions

2026-06-17 11:28 PDT button-tap processing:

- Staged for the natural posting queue from Todd's exact Mission Control approvals: Pin 1 `revisions/pin-01-counter-decor-v2/pin-01-nancy-meyers-kitchen-counter-v2.png`, Pin 7 `revisions/pin-07-soft-coffee-corner-cappuccino-v2/pin-07-soft-coffee-corner-cappuccino-v2.png`, Pin 9 `revisions/pin-09-designer-counter-empty-space-v3/pin-09-designer-counter-tips-v3.png`, and Story 1 `stories/story-01-counter-reset.png`.
- Removed from staging pending fresh approval: Pin 10 V3 `revisions/pin-10-warm-white-kitchen-formula-no-woven-v3/pin-10-warm-white-kitchen-formula-v3.png`, because Todd revised the older Pin 10 V2 asset at 2026-06-17 12:32 PDT.
- Pin 5 `revisions/pin-05-counter-decor-edit-caption-match-v3/pin-05-counter-decor-edit-v3.png` is not staged because Todd tapped Hold at 2026-06-17 10:30:10 PDT after the 2026-06-17 10:30:00 PDT approval. The later hold decision controlled until the V4 revision and later skip below.
- These approvals do not authorize immediate dumping, source links, affiliate links, product tags, DMs, replies, caption/CTA changes, music changes, paid actions, or other public account changes.

2026-06-17 12:26 PDT button-tap processing:

- Newly staged for the natural posting queue from Todd's exact Mission Control approvals: Pin 2 V4 `revisions/pin-02-counter-rule-no-lamp-v4/pin-02-counter-rule-collection-v4.png?v=178`, Pin 3 V4 `revisions/pin-03-counter-look-cheap-simple-v4/pin-03-counter-look-cheap-v4.png?v=178`, Pin 4 V5 `revisions/pin-04-source-board-coffee-corner-linen-v5/pin-04-kitchen-source-board-v5.png?v=182`, and TikTok 1 V4 `revisions/tiktok-01-board-coffee-swap-v4/tiktok-1-kitchen-counter-reset-board-coffee-swap-silent.mp4` with highlighted music candidate `Option 1 - Meant to Be - Rob Costlow`.
- TikTok 1 remains blocked from public posting until the exact `Meant to Be - Rob Costlow` sound lane is verified inside the destination platform account as approved for business/commercial use with no copyright-risk warning. Do not substitute another sound without Todd approval.
- Pin 5 V4 `revisions/pin-05-counter-decor-four-centered-v4/pin-05-counter-decor-edit-v4.png?v=178` is skipped/deleted by Todd's 2026-06-17 11:38 PDT decision. Do not publish, schedule, reuse, or stage Pin 5 unless a later approval supersedes this skip.
- All approvals continue to authorize only the exact assets, copy, timing intent, selected music lane where applicable, and no-link/no-affiliate/no-DM/no-reply/no-caption-change guardrails in this packet. No public posting, scheduling, link, tag, DM, reply, paid action, caption change, or CTA change was performed while recording these decisions.

2026-06-17 12:28-12:33 PDT button-tap reconciliation:

- Staged for the natural posting queue from Todd's exact later Mission Control approvals: TikTok 2 V3 `revisions/tiktok-02-playback-repair-v3/tiktok-2-designer-kitchen-tip-playback-repair-silent.mp4` with highlighted music candidate `Option 5 - Le Coeur en Vadrouille - CaLey n' DaNis`, Pin 6 V6 `revisions/pin-06-evening-kitchen-no-duplicate-v6/pin-06-evening-kitchen-gift-guide-v6.png?v=184`, Pin 8 V2 `revisions/pin-08-empty-space-rule-centered-zoom-v2/pin-08-empty-space-rule-v2.png?v=184`, and Story 2 V4 `revisions/story-02-coffee-corner-linen-v4/story-02-practical-piece-v4.png?v=184`.
- TikTok 2 remains blocked from public posting until the exact `Le Coeur en Vadrouille - CaLey n' DaNis` sound lane is verified inside the destination platform account as approved for business/commercial use with no copyright-risk warning. Do not substitute another sound without Todd approval.
- Still not staged from the active Day 17 recovery set as of 12:56 PDT: Pin 10 V3 and Story 3 V6. These were corrected after earlier review cycles and require their own later exact approvals before public use.

2026-06-17 13:56 PDT button-tap processing:

- Staged for the natural Pinterest queue from Todd's exact Mission Control approval: Pin 10 V3 `revisions/pin-10-warm-white-kitchen-formula-no-woven-v3/pin-10-warm-white-kitchen-formula-v3.png?v=189`.
- Pin 10 approval authorizes only the exact corrected image, title/search/CTA intent, natural Pinterest timing, and no-link/no-affiliate/no-DM/no-reply/no-caption-change guardrails. It does not authorize immediate dumping, source links, affiliate links, product tags, DMs, replies, caption/CTA changes, paid action, or other public account changes.
- Still not staged from the active Day 17 recovery set as of 13:56 PDT: Story 3 V6. It requires its own later exact approval before public use.

2026-06-17 13:56 PDT Story 3 button-tap processing:

- Staged for the natural Instagram Stories queue from Todd's exact Mission Control approval: Story 3 V6 `revisions/story-03-counter-poll-cutting-board-obvious-v6/story-03-counter-poll-v6.png?v=189`.
- Story 3 approval authorizes only the exact corrected Story frame, natural Stories timing, tap/poll visual intent, and no-link/no-DM/no-reply/no-poll-action/no-caption-change guardrails. It does not authorize public poll/reply action, DMs, source links, affiliate links, product tags, caption/CTA changes, paid action, or other public account changes.
- All corrected Day 17 static items are now staged except Pin 5 V4, which remains skipped/deleted by Todd's later decision.

2026-06-17 20:34 PDT stale Pin 6 V5 button-tap reconciliation:

- Older Pin 6 V5 target `2026-06-17-nightly-production-revisions-pin-06-evening-kitchen-centered-v5-pin-0` emitted multiple contradictory taps within milliseconds: `approve-now`, `approved`, `skipped`, then `hold`.
- The final logged decision for that exact obsolete V5 asset is `hold`, so V5 `revisions/pin-06-evening-kitchen-centered-v5/pin-06-evening-kitchen-gift-guide-v5.png?v=182` must stay out of posting queues.
- This does not supersede the later corrected and approved Pin 6 V6 asset `revisions/pin-06-evening-kitchen-no-duplicate-v6/pin-06-evening-kitchen-gift-guide-v6.png`, which remains staged for the natural Pinterest queue under the existing guardrails.

## QA

- Video format: pass. Both silent masters are 1080x1920 H.264 and 25.6 seconds. TikTok 1 V4 keeps the clear glass cappuccino slide and now pairs it with `Useful Coffee Tool`; `One Warm Board` is paired with the warm wood counter/tool slide. TikTok 2 V3 is a playback-safe H.264 Main encode of the distinct designer-checklist sequence with clean-zone, height, practical-piece, texture, anchor, and edited-counter visuals plus its own clear cappuccino frame.
- Music picker: pass for MC review. Six selected Jamendo options are available as buttons; voiceover files are excluded from the picker.
- Static recovery: pass for the latest flagged subject-match/composition failures. Pin 1 now shows a visible counter surface with styled decor, Pin 2 is panned out and no longer labels a lamp that is not visible, Pin 3 is simplified and removes the drawer-handle bank that looked artificial, Pin 4 now labels the cappuccino tile as `coffee corner`, uses a non-coffee linen towel tile, and swaps the warm wood picture, Pin 5 now uses exactly four centered pictures for lamp/stems, bowl/woven texture, wood board, and quiet texture, Pin 6 now reads evening and shows counter lamp, serving bowl, glass candle, and a separate woven texture picture with no duplicate image inside the post, Pin 7 uses a new cappuccino image, Pin 8 is panned down, centered, and slightly zoomed while preserving the empty counter stretch, Pin 9 now uses a wider counter crop with a visible clean zone, Pin 10 V3 removes the woven texture picture and keeps white ceramic, wood board, clean linen towel, and a small useful object, Story 2 now labels the cappuccino tile as `coffee corner` and uses a visible non-coffee linen towel tile, and Story 3 uses a V6 poll frame with the panned-out lamp, obvious cutting board, and ceramic crock visible.
- Source-list readiness: hold. Product/source links are not included and must not go public until Todd approves source-list copy and link path.
- Public action status: no external posting or scheduling has been done.
