  • Margo Pearson is a talented illustrator and photographer who has a great blog Marbargarbo. Follow the link from her website. She calls it her little diary of design showcasing things she likes, inspirations and snippets of her life. Check it out!!
  • Dai has been great and introduced our blog to her Taiwanese readers. Now she has her started a blog showcasing her interior design work, Adorable Homes. Dai fell into interior design by accident and it’s great to see how people from other countries decorate their homes. Thanks Dai and good luck!
  • Melissa missed our recent blogroll update but you shouldn’t miss her blog dsine and dsaster. Fixing her fixer-upper is the main subject of this blog. Things shiny & desirable are the underlying subject and just about all the products are affordable & accessible. That’s Melissa’s copy not mine so you can see what sort of fun awaits you there.
  • Finally I spied this on Another Shade of Grey. I ordered 2 lengths for lamp shades in my new place. Melbourne based Tess and Liz who design and sell this great fabric also have a great blog Metremade showcasing their great fabric and fabulous designs. Can’t wait to see your fabric up close girls!!
