Congrats! I just discovered your blog thanks to Phoebe's recommendation in the Washington Post. Can't wait to catch up on all of your great posts :-)

Congratulations and thanks for all of your wonderful posts. I discovered you blog after some of my favorite magazines shut down. I'm still trying to figure out proper blogging etiquette and have never commented. Your blog is a constant source of inspiration and I am grateful to you for the time you spend enlightening your readers.

My favorite post was the one about Christopher Alexander's theory about light on two sides of a room. You might say I am a real estate junkie. I've moved my family three times in the past five years (all in the same neighborhood). I think the closing attorney is beginning to think I'm nuts -- especially because we have two children under three! Your post finally helped me realize what I was looking for in a house.

Many thanks,
Mary Bennett

I always love Phoebe's designs. I shop the Atlanta market but still haven't found time to go to her shops!! How lucky for you to interview her and see her apartment. Congrats!!

It doesn't get any better than Phoebe Howard!!! Her talent is amazing! And congratulations to you being chosen by her - what an honor! I enjoy reading your posts with my morning coffee.

Congratulations on two years of blogging success! I am certain your success will expand beyond cyberspace! I can't think of a more appropriate give away for Things That Inspire than a book by Mrs. Howard herself! Pretty is how I would describe your blog. While the word pretty might not evoke the emotion of some of today's over used buzz words, it evokes a softness when spoken or read. Thanks for introducing us to the pretty things that inspire!

The minute I walked into Mrs. Howard's I thought of you. I'm not surprised that Phoebe loves your blog as much as you admire her work. Congratulations on all of your mentions in the WP. They are all well deserved.

Happy Bloggerversary !

Congrats on quite a compliment! You certainly deserve it for such a well written and interesting design blog. I agree with Terry - why don't you tell everyone who you are on your anniversary? Have a great weekend! Ann

Congratulations! It's so exciting that Phoebe gave you a shout-out in the WP.

I can't wait for the giveaway -- Phoebe is one of my favorite designers working today.

I have to be honest, whenever I hear about Pheobe Howard, I think of you! Her style, the fact that you'd been in her apartment... your aesthetic... anyway, loved the article in the Post too!!

2009-07-17T11:22:44.355-04:00

Thanks for the info. I think I love Phoebe as much as you, thanks to all your posts!! So many of her rooms are simply perfect, classic, and light but with a sense of depth and history from her wonderful selection of antiques and reproduction pieces and paintings. Just love her look.

Can't wait for your giveaway! Did you know my blog was 3 years old in March? Crappy timing, so I did not celebrate. Now no one is bothering to read me anymore - I think there are just too many bloggers out there and I am not young, rich, fabulous or connected, so seem to be coming increasingly irrelevant!! Maybe I need a niche, but sadly the Calgary design scene is rather lame and I am just too busy working for a living to spend any more time on the blog. Really thinking of shelving it. But then I am so inspired by so many blogs that I keep on plugging away and I love to write. It is so nice that you are getting acknowledged - it is really validating! And I think you should "come out of the closet" too. ; )

* Wow, ESPECIALLY coming directly from Phenomenal Phoebe, that's an INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS compliment & great honour!!! (WOW AGAIN~~~ "Celebrate, celebrate, dance to the muuuusic!")~

And her bedroom?~~~ a dreeeaammmm space to be sure... cool, calm, collected, uncluttered and simply beautifully rich while being totally uncomplicated & elegant! (Can you tell I ADORE IT???)~~~

What a way to start the weekend!!!

Thanks,

I don't know of another designer that can create such a peaceful and serene bedroom like Phoebe Howard.

Congratulations to you as well! Apparently the Washington Post knows a good thing too!
