I attended a fabulous Indie craft market last weekend right here in my own home town (more on that later), and had a mini conversation with one of the vendors from Pistachio Press about how addicting blogs are, and how tricky it is to keep up on reading them all. (Coincidentally, I'd first heard of Pistachio Press some time back via a blog). My list is pretty long, and there are definitely some that I only manage to click over to once in a blue moon, but every now and then I like to sit down and - at the very least - skim through a few of my favorites to get up to date. It always helps to inspire me if I'm feeling the need for a new idea or a new project.
Design*Sponge's tutorial on dry brush painting. I think this might be just what I've been looking for to fix up the sewing able I found this summer.
Cute little sailor-like clothes-peg dolls on this blog that I'll be talking about soon :) I love anything with a blue striped shirt.
How to make a birdcage veil and pretty diy chiffon flowers on Project Wedding.
More Design*Sponge: a guide to the Berkshires. I've really only ever driven through the area, or stopped at a specific place for an afternoon, but since we'll be attending a wedding in the Berkshires next fall, it might be the perfect opportunity to check out some of these places.
Finding your missing cell phone. I think Cup of Jo is officially my most referenced blog. She finds the best stuff!
Lastly, I came across this jaw-dropping little story and photo slide show of the most amazingly perfect woodsy hideway on a blog last week (though for the life of me, I can't remember what blog!), and have been clicking back to view the pictures ever since. I think it's probably impossible to see these photos and not be inspired. I kind of want to live here. View the full NY Times slideshow and the story.
