Lately, I've been gravitating to books over blogs to get my fill of eye candy. I've recently purchased (or spent an exorbitant amount of time stalking at local book shops) the following:

1. Organic and Chic

2. Lotta Prints

3. At Home with Country

4. Home (obsessed with Nick Ashley's simplistic take on home decorating. Read quote here.)

If you miss your favorite decor magazine, I suggest sitting down for tea with any of these books for some inspiration re charge.

Yay for books! I've been really whittling down my online experience lately to just those people who add something meaningful / original. I'm surprised at how much that eliminates in one fell swoop. But you're a keeper! Hope all is well!

good choices. books seem to be coming obsolete for bloggers, so happy to hear you read and find inspiration from these.

Nice! I sure like Nick Ashley's attitude! Takes the pressure of me. I haven't got a perfect showcase home, but it can still be nice! Hey? :)

Makes you feel like you don't always have to spend tons in order to make a beautiful home...
