I (along with several other blogs) received an amazing email last night…from a blogger named Grace..she said:

You have been quite an inspiration during the renovation of our home that my husband renovated in just 30 days. I felt the need to share the before and after pics, as your blog has given me such design direction. I want to thank you for your blog, and how much you inspired me. I would LOVE for you to visit me over at www.nameisgrace.blogspot.com , to see Part I of our reveal. My husband and I worked very hard so that our family could move in. We had a deadline of 1 month to finish an entire house. We are in our late 20′s, and are in now way shape or form professionals when it comes to interior design, nor do we have a lot of experience. Not having a budget to hire a professional interior designer, I gained most of my knowledge from blogs, including yours, so THANK YOU!!!!! I Hope you like what you see because there is more to come…kitchen and bathrooms:)

What is that Rachel Zoe says?? I die. well, yall. I DIE. this kitchen is so good..i thought she was joking at first…look at the lights?! and they did it in a MONTH! MORE TO COME??? Bring it on Grace, we can’t wait to see.

AMAZING GRACE, indeed! THANKS FOR SHARING. blogs really are an amazing thing they way they connect ideas and people with similar interests..,in the tradition of magazines and catalogs..now blogs… Lauren at Pure Style Home (who is amazing herself and about to have a baby!) calls this, the sharing and honing of style and ideas among “non pros,” the “democratization of interior design” and i agree and i love it!

yall go check out Grace’s lovely home, her cute stockings and adorable baby!
