If there is one thing I cannot live without, it would be magazines. Some would say that I have an obsession with magazines. The magazines that I receive include House Beautiful, Better Homes and Gardens, Elle Decor, Southern Accents, Traditional Home, Country Living, and Southern Living. I also venture to Barnes & Nobles at least once a week to see what international magazines they have on the stands. Among my favorite are those from England. The English Home, England's House Beautiful, and House & Garden, are my favorite publications from England. I also tend to pick up Martha Stewart Living, Renovation Style, and Dwell when I am at the grocery store. I save all my magazines and have them organized chronologically in magazine organizers I purchased from IKEA. There you have it, I have come clean about my addiction. Some have their Starbucks or smoking addictions. I have my magazines.
This past January I mourned the loss of three of my favorite magazines. Domino, Cottage Living, and Country Home all went under. I was truly upset about the demise of these magazines. The editors attributed it to the economy and advertisers pulling out. Thankfully I saved all my old editions and have them to look at when I feel nostalgic or need inspiration.
