the beat my heart skipped, indeed

The Diversion Project: Vintage Glamour

It's only 1pm here in London and I think my day has just been made. Would you look at these images! This is the kind of thing that gets me up in the morning. I can't tell you how much blogging, blogs and bloggers has contributed to my life. Being self employed and running a small interior design business is not nearly as glamorous as it may seem, and if you're not very careful it's easy to become demoralised when occasionally faced by that mean ol' dog: isolation. And so, having access to some fantastically creative people via blogs and Twitter has at times been the only link between here and full time employment.

I am amazed by the sheer generosity of spirit that is out there, particularly in the creative fields and it's a delight to every now and again, find 'my people'.

Latest finds - do have a look, these blogs are outstanding:

The Diversion Project - vintage; glamour; impossibly Cool; warm hearted (and Australian!)
little blue deer - gorgeous colours; slightly bohemian; eclectic-eccentric (US)
wicker and stitch - sophisticated; stylish; craft-cosy (another Sydney, Australian)
the beat that my heart skipped - daily design; designer makers; the place I go to when I need a quiet tea break - (and she's British, too!)
