I LOVE magazines! I have more subscriptions than I should, but I love flipping through the pages and getting cooking, entertaining and decorating ideas each month. Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Veranda and Traditional Home are some of my favorites. Their pages are all colorful, the articles are full of information and their websites are great sources too!
Traditional Home has a feature on their website which really caught my eye tonight: Family Friendly and Colorful. The rooms are irresistible and have just the right amount of color!
What a fun breakfast room!I love the giant stripes on the walls and the chairs would just make me smile every time I walked by. The portraits are a lovely, personal touch. You would never have a down breakfast in here!
Built-ins are such a plus in any home. The pale pink on the inside of these is just the right amount of feminine for me. Ohhh, and look at that molding....simply DIVINE!!
Well, you know I LOVE toile and I LOVE pink and green so this room was a match made in heaven. I do have to say I am not the biggest fan of paneling, but this office just makes it work. It is bright and chic- I can sure imagine blogging from here!

Ahh I so love that breakfast room! I wish I had a room like that!!
how funny. when I saw the first room online earlier today, I thought to myself, "wow, hopsy would love that!" I guess I was right! (I loved it too!)
What great photos! I love Traditional Home. My mother has subscribed for years and always shares her copies with me.
You know I have never looked at an Elle Decor, but I am off to check it out...I have heard several people talk about how great it is.
Such beautiful rooms! Hopefully I find a guy that will let me decorate like that one day! :o)
These pictures are just my taste. Love how elegance meets whimsy here. Lovely.
I was a magazine junky for years. I even carefully cut pages out and kept them in folders or notebooks by category, like landscaping, or room. I go back and look at some of the old pages and still LOVE them! Good design is everlasting, don't you think?
I love it too! Those pictures got cut out and put into the house file. Maybe someday I'll do a room with sherbert colored chairs. How Fun!
I'm going to have to run out and purchase a copy of Traditional Home. I just love the images you posted! I'll probably pick up a copy of the other magazines you listed as well. It's been a while since I've perused home decor magazines.
Love the chandelier, the colorful chairs, and the silver-clad built ins. All gorgeous!
Ahhh, I love painted stripes on walls! So chic.
I love magazines too! such a treat. and I love those chairs, so cheerful. I don't think I could do it myself, maybe a differnt version for a playroom. great photos!
Dear Monograms and Manicures,
I have followed your blog for some time and absolutely love it!! I stumbled upon it by accident one day and I have been a fan ever since!! I love reading about all your preppy finds and great travels!! In fact, you are one of the reasons, I have started my own blog called Small Town Girl at Heart. I e-mailed you but I guess maybe you didnt get it or havent had time to respond so I decided to leave you a comment. I would love for you to visit my new blog and let me know what you think! I am still learning and need all the tips, advice, and pointers that I can get!! Please comment me back and let me know what you think and how you think I could make my blog better and to get people to follow me! I want to meet new friends who enjoy the same things I do. It looks like you have met so many good blogging friends and enjoy conversing with them! I look forward to hearing back from you!!!

Love that breakfast room!
And I'm addicted to magazines as well. They're just so FUN.
I do love the chairs in that breakfast room and the scalloped molding! Tres adorable!
Oh, I love these. I wish my apartment looked like this!
Hopsy,
Just wanted to say thanks for the Pink Swap...I had a great partner and received some wonderful items from her! It was fun getting to know her. Thank you so much for hosting!
