favorite SUMMER READING in the shade

 As the warm summer-weather finally found it's way to our part of the US,

I enjoy outdoor reading and dreaming, through pages upon pages filled with

the most amazing and inspiring articles and pictures from fat magazines.

 Of course  you all know how much I adore the monthly Jeanne d'Arc Living, 

Promotes the very best in French Nordic decor, home, garden and DIY..

The Scandinavian simplicity, speaks to me.......

Their sweet blog here

There's a new kid on the (magazine) block: SOUVENIR, that has me totally captured!

Premier and first issue is a keeper and I can hardly wait for 
second issue coming in 2 days! 

Worth every penny in printed version, if you ask me!

I rather pay more for quality paper, binding and great images with no advertisement,

and SOMERSET LIFE is the ultimate feast in crafting and DIY projects.

This is the source for those of us that need directions to get creative.

Each article gives information where to go visit the artist' blog and website.

Found my copy at Costco and with 30% off retail, that is just an added bonus.

Blame me, if you're getting hooked :o)

And NO, I haven't been sponsored to give a shootout.
