My quiet down...I am always looking for inspiration.<BR/> My quiet down time in a bubble bath with magazines is one of my favorite ways to find and absorb (haha) fresh new ideas. I even stay away from venders that don't offer catalogs because I do my best comparitive shopping for the my store in the tub. <BR/>Do you have any suggestions of sites I should view that might fill my need for visual inspriration?HiHohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17953898819158016809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31674735.post-84044333941655523552009-01-11T10:39:00.000-08:002009-01-11T10:39:00.000-08:00Well said, Helen!

Yes, I subscribe to County Home. <BR/><BR/>I want to know where to buy the products used in the homes; however, I do want a magazine with a little bit of content. At least Martha Stewart has articles worth keeping.<BR/><BR/>Mostly women buy these magazines and they want to see articles about people like them and their families, and their homes, not two designers who don't have children with houses that has furniture that will never be puked on unless the dog eats grass (sorry to be gross ~ is that word still used?).<BR/><BR/>We don't want magazines, or newspapers for that matter, to go away. It is important for society for them to stay around. As an old lady, it dumbfounds me that publishers and editors are so ignorant. If they published what the public wanted, they would still be in business. <BR/><BR/>Computers are a wonderful source of knowledge, but the feel of a magazine or newspaper in your hand...to hold a page up and invision what your room would look like with that table...or letting your child cut out pictures...we can't lose those things. We need them. Besides, what would we do in the doctor's office if we didn't have three year old magazines to read?<BR/><BR/>Hello editors out there. I would really love a magazine that had the articles in one section and the ads in another. Believe it or not I would really look at the ads too. And you newspaper people....how about who, what, where, and when....and let me decide....I don't need your opinion or your bias.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for letting me rattle on.<BR/><BR/>I really enjoy your blog and always find it useful and inspiring.
