I enjoy getting home decor magazines and subscribe to three (Veranda, Traditional Home and Cookie). I wish I could subscribe to more but I can't finish one before getting next month's. Cookie replaced Domino oh about a year ago and two days ago I got a post card from Cookie stating "sorry but we signing off from publication and giving you Lucky." It's not that I loved Domino or Cookie but I'm just so sad to see that some magazines are dropping like flies. Think about all the people employed by these publishing house who will now be without a job.
I was skipping around Blog-Land and stumbled on Designtherapy.com and he too was discussing the disappearance of Cookie magazine and other "shelter" magazines. It looks like the publishing industry isn't going down without a fight and another, hip, right now magazine has come on the scene, lonnymag.com. I've looked at it on-line and its not bad. I tried to post a picture on here but it wouldn't save. Let's hope they survive.
I did receive some snow people from my Great Aunt. These little carolers are just too cute. It was difficult to pass the rows of ornaments at Hobby Lobby but I know that Christmas isn't about buying another sparkly ornament. I let my girls choose the theme and decorate the tree. I got the job of stringing up the lights (thanks Hubby for keeping the spiked eggnog flowing). On a sad note, my oldest said "no birds or feathers." What! That's my staple but I did manage to sneak a few on the tree in the kitchen.
