Wow. What a creative group. Each with such passion for their blog and project. Love the list.

I have to wonder if everyone has Martha Stewart to thank. She really started it all by making home decorating conversation mainstream with her Living magazine. I can remember subscribing to it when it came out in 1990, glued to each page, trying out her decorating and craft ideas. My kids are grown and gone so I don’t subscribe anymore, nor do I watch her show much, but I can tell you as one of her neighbors, her taste is impeccable and her attention to detail is extraordinary. Her blog is gorgeous too. I can’t think of another person who set the bar so high for the huge success of fellow home decorating bloggers.

Martha is the Grand Dame, isn’t she?

I like some of these too. Have you heard of Thistlewood Farm? The decorating is beautiful over there on that blog too. I just discovered that one a few days ago.

Ha. No worries. It’s easy to follow links around the Web and forgot how you ended up somewhere. I do it all the time! :-)

You HAVE to get some screen shots or other photos of the Jonas Compound in Texas. I got rooked into watching Married to Jonas by my kids and it is the parents house, not the one he lives in in Jersey. Please! It is gorgeous!

Do it Do it! I think it would be a great blog. Do it Do it! just do the blog about the rehab. forget the decorating that can come later. I fact you could solicit decorating ideas from readers.
