Heading To Hamburg

I'm leaving for Hamburg for some girl time with a friend but don't worry, I'll be back on Wednesday with posts and inspiration, and I will also post the Etsy take five on Wednesday as well so you won't miss your round-up for this week. We can't have that, it's business as usual -- well, sorta. :)

We'll be hitting some fab design stores and eating out, you know -- doing what two friends passionate about design do best! I will share some of my Hamburg moments with you when I return because I'm bringing my new camera and lens with me to practice. I hope to get some good pics to share, especially of a store I can't wait to visit that specializes in vintage and industrial decor. I'm bringing some Euros because I hope to come home with a few things for my apartment so if I score some finds I'll share them with you.

While I'm away you can catch a blog post that I wrote for designer Vicente Wolf while he is in Istanbul. I was so honored that he asked me to guest post for him. It will go live here sometime on Tuesday, so keep refreshing his blog until you see a post from me. It's about the importance of social networking for designers but really it can apply to all creatives who are looking to get the word out about their business. Enjoy!

By the way... thank you SO MUCH for leaving your nice comments on Anna-Malin's first post today. She was so happy to receive your warm, virtual hugs and nods of approval regarding her first installment on decor8. It's always scary to go before a new crowd, but she handled it just lovely and her project was tops.

Okay then my sweet friends, see you soon!
