Super COOL! My “gallery wall” got featured today on Apartment Therapy’s site. Woo-hoo! My friend Reina texted me the good news just a little while ago. I’m so delighted! This made my day. They featured it for the indoor mailbox. Sure… whatever they feature is fine by me, I’m just delighted to be featured there. That site has brought me SO much inspiration in the past. I’m happy to return the favor! Check out what they wrote about my mailbox idea: here (By the way, don’t mind the not-so-nice comments.) In life there are ALWAYS mean comments – nothing new, nothing worth losing sleep over either!

Ok, let’s just say I’m in a giving mood… If you entered my very 1st ever blog giveaway, which 5 of you did – you are ALL Winners!!!! Yup, you read that correctly. I’m so happy to give each of you: Mary Joy, Annette, Jane, Sarah & Geraldine a FREE custom photo card design of your choosing. I know the giveaway rules said that my 4-year-old would pick only 1 winner, but I’m so delighted that 5 of you entered that I’d like all 5 of you to win! Super thanks for entering my giveaway. This was a fun experience for me. Email me at: thirtyonedesigns[at]gmail.com & we’ll begin your card’s proofing process. Thanks so much again for being a part of my giveaway! Congrats!
So, my “Ask me a Question” blog section was a total FLOP! No big. Live & learn, Fern! Maybe one day if my blog audience is larger more people will have need for that section & I may bring it back. For now, it’s adios! I think what you, my blog readers, would enjoy more than an “Ask me a Question” section is a “Blogroll” section. So, let’s link away folks! Send me an email at 31everything[at]gmail.com if you’d like to be included in my blogroll. There are a few of you out there that are regulars & I’ll link to your automatically – unless you don’t want me to, in that case please let me know via email too.
I’m doing my very 1st giveaway! My Etsy shop is called Thirtyonedesigns. There’s a link to it in the right column of this blog. That’s where (if you don’t already know) I sell custom photo cards. This Etsy shop has been such a blessing to me. Here are some samples:

HAPPY NEW YEAR! In this post I’d like to update you on my latest blog news… so exciting! Confused on why “desire to inspire” is in the image above? That’s because I’m officially in their blogroll (under “T”)… YAY! I was also featured in their 2009 Holiday Reading Guide! Thank you Kim & Jo! Love it! Let me explain all this with a quote from one of my favorite movies ever, Dan in Real Life, “In my experience you rarely find it all in one book, maybe that’s why there’s so many”. I think the same can be said of blogs. There are so many decor blogs because no one blog contains all the inspiration you’ll ever need for your home. This makes me think seriously now about starting my own blogroll….
