Artful Blogging
Tuesday April 15th 2008, 9:56 am



Yesterday in the mail I received a copy of Artful Blogging, a magazine by Somerset Studios. I was very flattered that my plush houses photo was included in the article about Whip Up. In case you have never heard of Whip Up (which I doubt, but just incase) It is Collaborative weblog sharing news and information on many kinds of crafts

There are some great blogs featured in the magazine like Jek’s Scrumdillydilly, and the blog Elsa Mora which I actually just started reading about a week ago.

This kind of nicely leads up to something I have been wanting to post…to ask for links to your blogs! In the last few weeks I have found some lovely blogs all through my comments. Such as When Skies Are Gray, Head Explodie, Peapods, and so many more!!

I use a blog reader to read them all and it saves so much time, and will just show you what has been updated. So dear readers, do you have a blog? Please do tell!



Heidi!

hi~!~~~~!!!
Where is your blog hosted? I want to add YOU to my reader.

I currently just blog over at Livejournal. http://marblesfound.livejournal.com/ is my craft journal, its probably more interesting than my normal emo crap in my main journal. (I dont update ALL that often because I’m pregnant and cranky apparently!)

Mine’s a little bit of everything and not yet what I would like it to be (even after two years!). Always room for improvement, right?!?!

Hello!

I have a very young blog at http://kitknitty.com. I haven’t posted in a week or so, but I’m planning to be very active very soon!

Blogs are so fun! I don’t know what I would do at work without them :P

Blog readers are the best! I just figured out how to use my google reader and I doubt if I can ever live without it. It’s so easy!

I started my own blog a couple of weeks ago: http://www.mamutopia.blogspot.com

I go to blogs one at a time, and I generally look at them in the same order each day. Looking at them out of the usual order makes me strangely uncomfortable.

My blog is http://monkeysgohome.blogspot.com/

I am a huge fan of everything that Stampington and Co./Somerset Studio produces, and somehow I never heard of this mag!! Must order now! Thanks for sharing.
I have a fairly new blog at http://www.wisearts.com
I want to sell stuff on Etsy too, but haven’t gotten that far yet. My blog is about my art and craft and thrifting/shopping adventures. I’ve managed to post fairly regularly so far. It is fun. Cheers fellow bloggers!

Love the toaster.

I just started a blog about food. I have a highschool friend who lives in the Netherlands and writes about her cooking, and a college friend who lives in Chicago who also posts.
It is http://www.whatcarriemadefordinner.blogspot.com

Comment by carrie 04.16.08 @ 6:55 am

My blog is new as of this week, and the pictures are broken right now because I messed with the html.

BUT! Check it out! It’s a crafty/cooky blog by me and my sister.

Ooooh thank you! I am quite new to my blog so still feel I am setting in, it is nice to get encouragement!

:D

Comment by alice 04.16.08 @ 11:54 am

Hey! I know you just got like 50 new blogs to read, but I thought I’d also take you up on the offer. I just started mine but I’m trying to post everyday. It is kind of a mishmash of stuff I collect, places I go (or want to go) and things I do. Hence the title.

Delurking to say that I really admire your work and your ability to make everything so unbelievably cute and endearing.

I’m a softie-maker from Melbourne, Aus., and my blog is here: http://www.oneredrobin.com

Comment by Jhoanna 04.17.08 @ 5:54 pm

how does one get/use a blog reader? Such a thing would make my life so much easier! hah. Of course, it would probably mean I would start reading more blogs… a vicious cycle you know ;)

my blog is located at http://natchbox.blogspot.com/ though, being a full time student, it is generally only active over my breaks… thankfully, the longest break of the year, summer, is just one month away!

Comment by Natch 04.17.08 @ 9:10 pm

in case you ever get to the bottom of this list…yes! I have a blog too.

Comment by meg 04.17.08 @ 11:50 pm

I just found your site yesterday, but can already see what a great resource it is!

I’d love to have you come visit my polka dot blog!
