Magazines to Enjoy
Blog Prompt – Now that I’ve covered all the sweet things this week, tell me about the magazine you would be reading while eating your candy or donut. It’s Magazine Day today.
There are only a couple of magazines that I actually read from cover to cover and that is PC World and Birds & Blooms.
I love my geek magazine and learning about all the new electronics out there and how to make my computer better. If I am wanting to purchase a new piece of equipment, I can go to one of my magazines and look at their comparison of all types of electronics. Or, I can go to their website for the same information. Great magazine if you like things like that.
Birds & Bloom is a small magazine that I only get every 2 months, but I love all the information I get from it how to feed my birds and what to plant to attract birds and butterflies. I love all the tidbits they have to share from subscribers experiences.
I also get Southern Living and I have loved this magazine for many years now. I don’t read everything in it, but the recipes and the parts for the state of Florida are always on my check list. I love seeing all the places we can visit in the South. My favorite part is how other people decorate their homes and I have used some ideas in the past.
The best idea I took from the magazine was the screen door for our newly remodeled kitchen. We were trying to figure out what door to use for our pantry door and I saw where someone had taken a screen door and used it in their kitchen. So, we painted the extra door we had and used it for our new Pantry Door. It looked so nice in our 1845 home out in the country in Georgia and worked perfect with the decor. The picture below show this kitchen at Christmas time. That was my favorite room in that home and I have to show it off a bit.
When I moved into this home with my new husband, the kitchen had never been painted since 1845 and there was only the cabinets on the wall. We replaced the bottom cabinets and put in the island with all new appliances.
There was 4 main rooms in this home and they were 20 x 20, so we had plenty of room to get around in. My husband had worked very hard to make this home beautiful and livable for the both of us.
Everyone have a great weekend,
I used to get Birds and Blooms. The photos in the magazine were awesome. I love what you did with your screen door and had to show it to my husband.
