Blogger Inspiration: Sanctuary

April 17, 2012


How on earth did I get my fix
before this addiction to blogs?
300 magazine subscriptions (you get the idea)
and watched a ton of Bravo and HGTV.

bonus confession:
Prior to design and fashion blog obsession I was hooked on
gorgeous cupcake blogs...know these? Ah, the pastry porn.

I do love a beautiful blog!

There are a hundred reasons
I am compelled to pay a daily visit to
Rebecca
of
Sanctuary.

Let's begin with the gorgeous styling and sensibilities at her home in Finland:

Then throw in a trained eye for understated beauty
leading to posts with the loveliest images of home,
of life around the planet.

Thank you, Rebecca for this haven
suspended in the blogosphere
where quiet inspiration flows
wide and deep.

Your site has been a restful rendezvous
of mine for years now, and I am so grateful.

Have a beautiful blog addiction to share?

Peace to you right where you are.

  5. So pretty and peaceful looking...all that white makes for such a soothing calm environment. I think my fix was through zillions of design mags and books (still is but a little less so) Can't imagine a week without my daily stops into my favorite places...yours included Michele!

    I am not surprised that the beautiful blog Sanctuary is a favorite of yours. It is all that fresh, sane and creative calm that you both have in common.

    Tomorrow is a big day for me. Will soon call you and tell you why!

    Love to you,

  8. Hey Michele,

    i saw your question to Sherry about the musty dough bowl... try kitty litter... it totally completely works on musty old furniture cabinets... might work if you put it in the dough bowl awhile... the old fashioned kitty litter...

  21. This is calling me
    as I attempt to live
    more lightly and
    purposely and, yes,
    authentically.....I
    cleaned out a shelf
    today. Slow and steady,
    that's me. I need me
    some in-spie-rae-shun!
    Thanks for providing it,
    here....
