It's got great jewel tones in it on a linen background-- but I digress.)<br /><br />I've now added you to my Google Reader because anyone that cusses while they write about decor is the bomb.<br /><br />And, yes, Bemz is also a good Ikea cover source. They do WAY more covers than we do-- we stick to some easy basics.

Elle Decor definitely wins this month. <br /><br />I would have liked the idea of doing one color through the whole issue (maybe, in theory it sounds cool) if the color they chose wasnt BLUE. We see this ALL the time. I like blue, but its not interesting enough for whole entire issue. <br /><br />Next, <br />I LOVED the article and pictures of the home of Ellen Rakieten, who runs the show over at Oprah.
