Mad about the blog

I know there are hundreds of interiors blogs out there, but this one is my absolute fave - it's Mad about the house and is written by Kate Watson-Smyth a journalist specialising in interiors and design.  There are daily finds ranging to the latest fab interiors shops to gorgeous lighting ideas to unusual floor tiling - oh and shades of grey paint - but above all loads of practical advice and input into styling your home.  I drop in each week to take a look.



As well as the '365 Objects of design' feature you'll also find a weekly delve into hot properties on the market (who doesn't like nosey-ing around beautiful homes)


... and there's also a 'Your home' section where you can ask your burning interiors questions and she will gallantly try and point you in the right direction.  So if your new year's resolutions include keeping up to date on current interiors trends, this is one to bookmark.

Iconic Interiors

If you know your Eames from your Corbusier then this site I stumbled across it the other day could be for you.  Selling beautifully recreated design classics you can get your hands on high quality furniture of the likes of the Barcelona chair, an Eames lounger and the Bibendum chair.  Take a look for yourselves at www.iconicinteriors.com.
