And the New BM Contributors Are...

I'm excited to announce the very first team of contributors on Belle Maison (this was not an easy decision!)...

Thank you all so much for sending in your submissions - I received many, many fabulous entries and it was really difficult to narrow down the list to eight (double what I was originally considering!). I really enjoyed visiting each and every one of your blogs. For those of you not selected this time around, I'll be keeping your emails in a file for future reference.

Those of you who have been selected, I'll be sending out an email shortly with details!

Happy weekend to you all! I look forward to meeting you back here next week.

Inspiration Snapshot: Tropical Glam Bedroom // Contributor Update

I was planning on announcing my new team of contributors today, but it's going to have to wait until tomorrow. My son hasn't been feeling well which has delayed me getting much work done. I can't wait to reveal the new contributors first thing tomorrow morning and thank you for your patience if you've been waiting to her the news!

The latest issue of Adore Home is packed with amazing interiors and so much inspiration! This bedroom is so bright and cheerful, yet refined and glamorous. I'd never in a million years think of doing busy pink bamboo wallpaper with a geometric print on the ceiling, but somehow it totally works! The all white bed & bedding, along with white carpet help anchor the room and give your eye a break from all the busyness. See pg.120 of Adore Home's April/May issue to view the rest of this home, which has my head spinning!
