you should focus on canadian blogs too, Jan. you live on "wet coast" afterall.
sandee...these mentioned blogs are the ones that introduced themselves by either leaving comments or emailing. i'm unfortunately unaware of any "new" blogs besides "bookhou at home from toronto (mentioned btw) that are completely canadian. (although some of the girls in the shopping blog, "love it alot" are canadian. if you are canadian, please introduce yourself if you wish to be mentioned, as it would be virtually impossible to investigate. i feel i make it a point to support local and canadian talent, so i'm a little confused by your comments.
hi jan... ah how your music list strikes a chord w/ me....:) can i just steal yours....
{thanks for the sew green mention w/ BTW has a canadian faction!}
Hi Jan,
I have a new blog too called Green Zebra that you may find interesting. I address letterpress, design (I'm a printer and a designer), art, etsy and Minneapolis on it. In any case, thanks for the work you do with poppy. I read it daily and have found it very inspiring for both the things you feature as well as the design of the site! Also, thanks for watching out for the "newbie" bloggers out there.
lisa, i think that clash one is yours from the swap! and thanks for reminding me of sew's canadian member.
amy - thanks for introducing yourself, a letterpress, so jealous
sandee again here- thanks for the response, Jan. i appreciate your interest in canadian talent. I, too, love to see cdn bloggers.
i have been cruising around blogland as of late, and came across *Terramia* (design oriented from a talented woman in Victoria, with some "canadiana" content as she puts it), and her favorites directed me to Only One (browneyedjoy?) as well (yet another lady starting out in the design field with a vast and insatiable interest in anything decor related). just a couple for you to look at. i think they deserve a mention.
i will keep my blog eyes wide open for you as I love to discover new and exciting talent, particularly those with a passion for oh canada.
and i was going to mention om (now in t.o.), coe & waito blog, and "bookhou" as some of my preferred but you have already (i think).
thanks again, your blog is always a delightful read
-- Sandee
also on the wet coast (without a blog, but thinking about starting one!) :->
sandee - thanks for the input. if you enjoy finding new talent, then perhaps you should start your own blog, then you can showcase anyone you wish!
Thank-you Sandee for those links! They are great blogs to look at.
Ouch! I think Sandee was simply trying to be pleasant and offer her suggestions. No need to be offensive and pretentious.
sorry if i sounded pretentious sandee, by the looks of it you have a few friends here : ). funny how words can sound so off when they don't mean to. i was actually being sincere and was going to write a post about these new/older blogs that you suggested as they are good. and when you do get a blog, let me know! have a great day!
