Full House

You may have already noticed that I've started a list of links on the right-hand side of the page for recommended sites dealing with everything from Home Decorating to Filmmaking, whatever your pleasure.

As I've become more involved with blogging, I've discovered so many wonderful blogs that I've decided to share them in a recurring post - Another Beautiful Blog Discovery. Each time I find a treasure on the net, I'm going to share it with all of you! If you have recommendations for blogs to be featured, please send those along as well.

Today's BEAUTIFUL BLOG is Full House (vivafullhouse.blogspot.com).  I discovered it through exploring the links on Young House Love and bouncing from one of their recommended blogs to Full House.

Full House is an incredibly well-photographed blog that details the adventures of a crafty mother of 5 (two twin girls and three triplet boys!) and how she survives it all with inspiring wit and grace. Her blog is a fantastic resource for home design inspiration, parenting advice and reflection, and just fun little anecdotes to read. Be sure to check it out when you have a few minutes. In the future, you can also find the link to full house on my "Home/Apartment Decorating" Link List!

For now, here are three wonderful posts to get you started:

• Chic on a Shoestring - A showcase of a fantastic bedroom decorating makeover
• The Mr. Man Party - A charming look at her boys' birthday party/father's day party
• Black and White - A roundup of inspirational black-and-white design schemes from around the web
