Goodbye print?
It is a sad state of affairs when two gorgeous magazines bite the dust in a matter of months. First, House & Garden...a constant source of design inspiration, beautiful color palettes, and daydreams; and then the fledgling Blueprint—which I had become very fond of—it had a little bit of everything for everyone...sigh.
I picked up the last issue of Blueprint a few days ago and saw this fabulous jewelry box/wall hanging project inside. I have seen similar things before, but I love how they used knobs to hang bracelets and necklaces, and the box is deep enough for smaller bowls and boxes to sit inside. This would be a perfect way to prevent my cat from knocking my jewelry on the floor... hang it up in a pretty box far from reach. Another project for my to-do list. Thank you Blueprint!











For real? I subscribe to Blueprint and I had no clue... What's gonna happen to our subscriptions fees?

I did not know that. Blueprint was a new magazine but House & Garden is a "classic". That's sad!

I am so sad about Blueprint. I didn't know! I loved the font combinations it used, it was so inspiring.

I liked Blueprint, but have to say that I'm pretty irritated; I just renewed AND bought a gift subscription for my sister, and they took my money without a word...

Growl, we subscribed to a number of magazines to get design ideas for many of our projects...including these one's. Thanks for keeping us informed.

What? I didn't know about Blueprint either! Good thing I saved every issue (If you ever want to borrow one :) I loved that feature, too...especially the one with the jewelry hanging from the branches...I'm so doing that one!
