Awesome new mag alert!


A cover from a few issues ago.

I read so many magazines that they can at times get a little repetitive so when a new one grabs my attention I get excited about it. Blueprint, from the Martha Stewart clan, is not so much unlike Domino. It has great decorating ideas and tips from pros. What I am loving about Blueprint is all of the inexpensive DIY stuff that looks like I might actually be able to DIM. There are step by step instructions including places to buy each piece. My favorite thing? The faux headboard that is made out of wallpaper is just so cute. You can even download the template on the website! I also love the cover of the mag. I really believe that there has to be a great cover to attract people to pick it up and read it. Some of my most favorite publications ever, like Jane, are always so good inside but the cover is either totally boring or just not a good representation of the content. Blueprint has a pretty blue color scheme with big lettering and not too much else. The girl laying on the bed has the most enviable auburn hair color and the cutest outfit. The room that she is laying in has such cool things that I had to know how I can get them myself. What I don't like so much is that there are only 6 issues a year (Come on, Martha. You can do better than that!) and the beauty tips are a little obvious. (Messy bun in the summer, anyone?) Any other new publications that I must read?
