Posted by Petra, Staff WriterMy favorite part of our having this blog is tracing back to the other blogs that link to us. I have grown sort of obsessed with some of them; we have the most creative, crafty, talented readers! So, I wanted to take a minute to confess how I'm completely in love with ...
... your brilliant DIY decorating ideas [paper wall art at The NieNie Dialogues]
... your homemade fashion statements [a hand-knit beret at Skrilla Knits]
... your inspired workspaces [this one belongs to Ali, of Ali Loves Curtis]
... your romantic adventures [an elopement announcement at Hoping For Happy Accidents]
... your elaborate theme parties [a Breakfast At Tiffany's spread at Modern Marie]
... your speed-crafting projects (and cute pets) [doggy daybed at Nicoleslaw]
... your more involved craft projects [apron with clothespin-doll holsters at Angry Chicken]
... your creative processes [a colored-pencil art journal page at Scrapper's Muse]
... your online finds [downloadable Kate Spade book covers, via Happy Mundane]
... your endless design links [Grace and Go tea towels at Happy Cavalier]
I could go on like this all day, but alas, there's writing to be done for the actual magazine. Thanks for all of your posts and for linking to us -- we novice bloggers have lots to learn from you!
Everyone does such beautiful work!

Grace & Go!
I actually bought two of her tote bags a couple months ago. she was sweet enough to send a personal notecard and gift thanking me for being her first US customer.
She's a sweetheart and it was very easy ordering from her.

It is so nice to see that the Editors of Bluelines enjoy what we "everyday" people enjoy too! Stephanie's Nie Nie Dialogues display her amazing talents and gifts for valuing the right things in life (i.e. family and spending loving time together). Thanks for posting her info here! It is always fun when others enjoy "good things"-as Martha would say!
