Happy Monday!
Well, it looks like most of you that voted last week were feeling the same way I was about the color of the fireplace. Here’s how the poll turned out…
I guess you know how something else will be turning out next week- LOL! 😉
In the meantime, I thought it would be fun to share some home design and decor blogs I’m reeeeeally looking forward to following along with this year.
Kelly and her cutie pie family of four live on a lake in Michigan, and if you like DIY projects, pretty furniture & decor, and yummy recipes- you’ll love following her blog too!
Shayna and her hubby live in Colorado and they’ve really got a knack for injecting farmhouse style and architectural character into a newly-built home!
Liz blogs about furniture makeovers, DIY projects, and man does she have a way with design and decor! She’s opening a shop called ‘The Found Cottage’ in Hudsonville, Michigan this month, and I’m determined to get up there and see it in person sometime!
Kristine and her family live in Melbourne, Australia and her blog bio reads, “My husband and I are the second owners of a teensy home (a mere ten by twelve meters in entirety) which sits mid-way up a long undulating hill. We feel lucky to be surrounded by native Aussie bush, eucalypt-laden rolling hills, and lovely sweeping views. Of course, there’s the odd kangaroo or twenty as well. I am passionately decorating (and then re-decorating!) each space with an emphasis on creating a beautiful yet liveable home on a budget!” She knocks my socks off with the projects and photos she posts, and if you don’t already, I just know you’ll love following along with her too!
These are just a few of the fun blogs I’m looking forward to reading in 2016. I’d love to hear which ones you’re excited to follow too!

I’m really looking forward to following your blog this year – I love your home but I’m most excited about Sweet P coming home.

I have my top five that I absolutely love, and you and Liz Marie are in that! I live in Iowa and vow to make it to her shop someday too, maybe I’ll meet you there!? Haha… And these other ones you have featured look amazing, how have I not seen the WoodgrainCottage?? My other favorites are Lindsay at the White Buffalo Styling Co, The Nester, and Lauren Liess. (Layla,Liz,Lindsay,Lauren, and Myquillyn….my favorite most inspiring ladies!) ~Kim

no, put that paintbrush down.

I agree. Please DON’T PAINT over the Blue Yonder!!! It’s not as special! When you look at all your links to other white-on-white – they all begin to look the same.
Layla
It’s already re-painted, MB, and I’m happy to report we are loving the new look! 😀
Sandra Kay Hayes
I love Liz’s designs also. Your are always so wonderful!! I live in Mi. so if you ever come up, give me plenty of notice, because I would get up her way to meet you!! I also can’t wait till little Sweet P comes home!!
Lauren
I’m sad I missed the poll! But I would’ve gone with staying the same or white so it looks like a good result all around 🙂

Great choices! I love their blogs:)

I love Lily Pad and Liz Marie as well. (I also live in Michigan, near Hudsonville and I’ll be at the grand opening of the Found Cottage!) I also really love The Makerista – Gwen has amazing vision and her house is so elegant!
I have a small blog and would love to get more traffic this year!

So, there’s this one that I can’t get enough of – It’s called The Lettered Cottage!
Happy New Year!
