Victoria Smith Mood Boards
Seems fellow blogpal Victoria (SFGirlbyBay) has the same fascination with home peeping as we do. Look at these lovely images that she's collected and displayed on her wonderful blog this week.
The photo above is from Pink Loves Brown (who was featured here and also here - stationery goddess!) Would you like to peek at a few other areas in her home? Sure you would. Click here.
Victoria also pulls together the most amazing design boards ever on AT:SF. This lady rocks it out, I think she is so clever. This one, '40's Finds at the Flea Market, is my favorite by far. I love the corals, tropical barkcloths (they look Hawaiian to me), that kiwi green, and the pops of red, especially the adorable red dog silhouette (click on image below for larger view or read the complete post over at AT:SF).
This design board 'ABC's for Renters', is fun and has a lot of personality. Also from Victoria. Get the specifics here. How inspirational is this, huh?
Makes me think, maybe in the new year we should have a new contest. Maybe I can find a sponsor and if not, I'll reach into my pockets and just do it myself. I'd love to have a Design Board competition. Where readers pull together images and paint chips and fabric swatches to create a dream room. What do you think? Would you be interested in something like that?
I could also make the voting system a little more on spot by using some nifty software or something where a person can only vote once for their favorite. I don't think anon votes on blogs are always 100% if you know what I'm sayin'.... Maybe a SPRING FLING contest held in late March? What types of prizes would you like? Any ideas for me? We have a nice group of readers, why not try out another contest - only this time, something where you can get out the gluesticks and magazine clippings and go absolutely nuts.
Let me know what you think, so I guess you can consider this your warning so you can start thinking about your dream room in advance... :)
