You know what they say, if you want to have a blog that people will read, you need to write passionately about what you know and inside of that, find your niche. So, if you are still looking for yours, the following have my vote:
1. Tile
I’m a Decorator, not a renovator. I help clients choose their finishes because that falls into the realm of undertones and colour but there are so many weird angles and problems that come up in installations, I would devotedly read a blog that addressed those issues.
I do a lot of drapery but if you look at my website, most of them are straight panels, simple boxed pleat valances, roman blinds, etc but generally very clean and simple. The West coast is very different from the East. We don’t do a lot of traditional swags, cornice’s and formal, fancy applications, but I would be fascinated by a blog that taught me about those things.
3. Provenance
I’m totally embarrassed to admit this (don't tell anyone), but I only just discovered what this word meant about 3 months ago, so if you wrote a blog dedicated to the history of furniture (but not so it sounded like a professor was writing it), I would subscribe immediately. When I wrote this post just last week, I had to do some heavy googling before I discovered that the chairs in my clients vignette were ‘Regency Style’.

I would love to read a blog that taught me about Art. I did not grow up around it, am intimidated by it, and would love to sound more intelligent when discussing it. If you could do this for me, I would love you forever!
Well those are the top 4 on my list. What are yours? Which design blog would you love to read that you can’t find?
If you would like your home to fill you with happiness every time you walk in, contact me for on-line or in-person decorating and colour.
