Aside from a couple mums, we never got around to decorating our front door this fall (a new baby will do that!), but I've been loving what I've been seeing around the blogosphere and Pinterest....especially this front porch from <a href="http://www.thewoodgraincottage.com/2013/10/14/fall-front-porch/" target="_blank">The Wood Grain Cottage</a>! Shayna went all out with her decorating, which was inspired by the great outdoors and cozy fall elements. I have to admit though, it was her door painted <a href="http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/wytheblue" target="_blank">Wythe Blue</a> by Benjamin Moore that first got my attention! Love it with the orange! You guys have to see inside Shayna's home, it's beautiful. Take her tour <a href="http://www.thewoodgraincottage.com/home-tour/" target="_blank">here</a>!<br /><br />I hope everyone has a fun day! Pretty sure Wesley is excited for his first Halloween!

Does anyone actually read my blog?

Your friends and family keep you on your toes and often unwittingly provide great fodder for blog posts!  They also cause a scattered examination of conscience.  Two recent questions about my blogging ( I have a painting blog and a home decorating blog) got me thinking about my purpose and audience, and the time I invest in this activity. This post is about Designing Home blog<br /><br /><b>Audience</b><br />  I am happy to report that people do indeed read Designing Home blog. Since I began it almost three years ago,  I've had over .25 million page views.  That surprised even me because I originally began to write this blog with a local audience in mind.  I couldn't be further from the mark.<br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWAOgCmpQjslPIxt-cqpibKeOq9_ofEtfkg5jWhhaFHRzJfmWbEKrrtNLR3mOibFQjkUDtrP7ANhFAZXdTgkitzFs3b9R8ZHWNIoKHdcPgC7mmbVnYzsYOEYgZE7reeq1VUqUNSxCsl9wD/s1600/chart.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="188" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWAOgCmpQjslPIxt-cqpibKeOq9_ofEtfkg5jWhhaFHRzJfmWbEKrrtNLR3mOibFQjkUDtrP7ANhFAZXdTgkitzFs3b9R8ZHWNIoKHdcPgC7mmbVnYzsYOEYgZE7reeq1VUqUNSxCsl9wD/s320/chart.png" width="320" /></a></div><br />  My readership is 6 times larger in the United States  than Canada.  Canada, Great Britian, Australia and Germany are almost tied in interest.  Only a small percentage of readers are actually from Newfoundland.  No doubt it is a global village. <br /><br /><b>Topics</b><br />I am glad that my original prediction about audience was correct. The average homeowner appears to welcome clear information about basic decorating issues.  You now, the kind of questions you have if you live in an  average size home and decorate with a modest budget.  Personally that means a very modest budget layered with a lot of DIY.  While I write about other topics that appeal to smaller audiences, I try to keep my focus "sensible".

I am also a huge synthesizer. I like to get things down to the bare bones quickly.  A colleague once told me I write like a machine gun.  I am obviously not a highly verbal person - I am a doer.<br /><br />But.... I love to organize and share information. It just makes me happy.  The learner/ synthesizer function wins.   <br /><br />Blogging also provides a forum to research questions or problems that arise as I work with clients.  It has expanded my horizons in so many ways when it comes to interior design. The design community is diverse and blogging keeps me in touch with trends from around the world.  That is a necessity when you live on an island where attitudes can tend toward the provincial and predictable.<br /><br />Blogging  increases your credibility.  When you have a blog /website as I do, you have a showcase for your understanding of design issues and people can anonymously " check you out".  There are lots of lurkers out there from my stats.  2542 people checked out my portfolios , 798 read my design statement and 540 wanted to know more about me.<br /><br />Yes, people are reading my blog.  It serves its purpose. <br /><br />Signing  out from my not so decorative small computer space....<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">   <img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhD5more3lTQlf-5mgiE9O0-vk_Q4uLL4IEzgxPS29dmtHGRN3OWPTAjw0qDtp1pmz_2Od_Qc9wGfVInjrghx97bCQySsRPvEwLQS8YKl5fzIwKoRTrkqBECuKJvnOzMu7l7nuLFBY3jYva/s400/DSCN3883.JPG" width="321" /><span style="color: black;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">  As you can see, I live in a very average space and I am also a little sloppy at times. Why I have a pair of pliers on my desk is a mystery. This desk came  from a contractor friend  who  renovated a  university residence.  The walls are BM CC 460 inukshuk  and the desk is painted BM  HC 69 whitall brown. The resident carpenter built the bookcase to fit the equipment.  </span></div><br />

And more aqua

This must be aqua week! I am noticing it everywhere.  After writing a post yesterday about aqua, I opened one of the blogs I follow this morning to be greeted by a lovely room make -over by Kelly Porter of <a href="http://www.porterhousedesigns.com/colorsizzle/my-new-blue-room">Color Sizzle </a>and the walls are painted aqua. The accents are red.  I wanted to share this lively combination.  While it is too much colour for me, I know it will appeal to lots of my readers.  <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxY4zf_wWgnHxrnkK7aEbhNgZEHI0WW-OdEl9aesCjWg3Wrmb_L2EnrudWUIPGAOk7J6ViAO9IOo-0YZXTmb9Aj7qieeUuEP_xhoGKZd_JIUybTHIoP5bibcc5rnu1MqAbapqBEQr83T6j/s1600/f6b19b2099e0f3803959f6336b30f410.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxY4zf_wWgnHxrnkK7aEbhNgZEHI0WW-OdEl9aesCjWg3Wrmb_L2EnrudWUIPGAOk7J6ViAO9IOo-0YZXTmb9Aj7qieeUuEP_xhoGKZd_JIUybTHIoP5bibcc5rnu1MqAbapqBEQr83T6j/s640/f6b19b2099e0f3803959f6336b30f410.jpg" width="488" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">Pillow and lamp love on my part!  </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_qCguQH5mF9Vyz6G8ztJYNB9r-TfrBVc56WQi6Sbo5MPxgTE4B9Q62EZXDQfyf3TS8BrluXf90lIRESIb6kGG2q-JxAgm1GtWGpxZ3Lm5kV8VCpoZqKbUQdsAg2b5YyhnSqpW39d0Jafw/s1600/6347f9ea2df9b74cc5eb16c8bb563ad0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_qCguQH5mF9Vyz6G8ztJYNB9r-TfrBVc56WQi6Sbo5MPxgTE4B9Q62EZXDQfyf3TS8BrluXf90lIRESIb6kGG2q-JxAgm1GtWGpxZ3Lm5kV8VCpoZqKbUQdsAg2b5YyhnSqpW39d0Jafw/s400/6347f9ea2df9b74cc5eb16c8bb563ad0.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://nitenitemommy.blogspot.ca/">source</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And another living room with the same colour scheme, but the colours are used in a very understated way.
