Heart Home e-Magazine
If you're a blogger you must be able to relate to me right now. I'm overwhelmed! I've been sitting here for the past few hours sorting through lists and lists of things that I need to post on decor8 because I've been finding so much over the past few months during my travels and have no clue where to begin now that I'm back in the office. I have over a thousand business cards that I've collected from all of the lovely readers and new friends that I met while in America, England and the Netherlands and I just don't know where to begin though I found that the best way is to simply start somewhere... One post leads to two and so on. So! Let's talk about a gorgeous magazine that has the web a-buzz lately... Heart Home!
Oh, but first I have something to share. I recently interviewed a designer and she asked if I ever run out of things to post about on decor8 and I answered so quickly I giggled a bit because "NO!" escaped me before the question was fully out of her mouth. Like I said earlier, there is just SO MUCH out there to see and explore and experience, I can't imagine ever running out of content as I'm sure many of you can relate. Sometimes I'll comb through my archives to review some of my past finds and I'm always amazed as the sheer talent that exists, the people I've met, the places I've visited, and just how lucky we all are to be living during a time when there is so much artistic and creative expression to be seen, on a global scale, that we can witness daily online. As I look through all of the wonderful things on my lists that I have yet to write about, I'm so happy that I have a job like this. I much rather be overwhelmed by finding too much than from finding not enough.
But back to Heart Home. Oh my goodness... speaking of inspiring content, you have to check out this newly launched UK-based digital shelter magazine. Founded by my friends and fellow bloggers Arianna Trapani, Carole King and Daniel Nelson, together they have created such a beautiful publication with a focus solely on homes in the UK making this magazine the first of its kind! The concept is brilliant and I'll certainly tune in to this quarterly online publication regularly to see what properties they've scouted and styled, and who they're profiling in the world of UK design next.
I'd like to add that I'm honored that they devoted two pages of their premiere issue to me and my book (see above). It was quite nice of them to do that! You can read an interview that they had with me here as well that is a bit of an extended version of the article.
I loved seeing the home of Jeska Hearne from Lobster & Swan (images above) and her feminine home. I'm a huge fan of hers so it was such a treat to peek into her personal space and to read about her inspirations. Here are a few more favorite peeks from the homes of others featured in the premiere issue of Heart Home...
I can't wait to see the next issue of Heart Home - way to go Ari, Daniel and Carole! Woot woot!
