I Heart Real Simple



Have you picked up a copy of the March issue of Real Simple? I swear I have devoured it. I think my very favorite part was the "product of the month" article featuring 4 problem-solvers for $15 or less. (It's on page 70, if you happen to have your issue in hand). I could definitely use all four products in my exact life and was so glad to discover them.




The story isn't listed online yet, but the products are: a recycled plastic cutting board, a paint brush that attaches to your faucet to rinse itself out, a clothing hanger that doesn't leave bumps in the shoulders of your tops and some cute little paper clips with a space for a note attached. All smart, easy to use, good-looking items.


Even more fun than discovering these products? Hearing from a Design Mom Reader that Real Simple had named Design Mom one of their favorite blogs! I'm blushing — and delighted to be listed among the company of some of my own favorites, like Decor8, Design*Sponge, Shelterrific and BabyGadget. Thank you Real Simple!

As a fan of DesignMom and avid Real Simple reader, I was surprised you weren't listed in the magazine! I'm so glad to know they listed you in the online version of the magazine. Keep up the great work!

I know! That is actually how I found your blog, and I love it because it actually overlaps with some others that I have started following. I am new on the blogging scene but have always loved reading and looking at pretty/cool things and I love you style. Congrats-- it makes me excited to be a design "mom" someday.
