  2. Striking spaces if you are into colors! Well done but these colors are too aggressive for my personal taste. When at home, i need relaxing soothing colors and materials

  4. you know what would be super awesome - if these images had some credits, links or background info. some readers may be interested in learning more about the original sources/designers/etc. just something to consider when posting inspirational images. check out this helpful flowchart: http://www.designsponge.com/2011/03/how-to-credit-just-check-the-poster.html

  7. eloise, thanks for the tip on posting photo credits. i do post credits for every post on belle maison. today was an exception because several of these images are stored in my "blog files" on my computer, some of which i can't remember where they came from. i agree that it's extremely important to give proper credit to all images used :)
