OH ME OH MY! The Inspired Room was just honored to be in the TOP FIVE decorating bloggers listed by Better Homes & Gardens!
WHAT? WOO HOO! I’m still stunned and can’t believe it (I keep checking to make sure it wasn’t a dream), but I’m so excited!
The finalists are now in a competition for the top blogger in each category, so if you’d like to help get The Inspired Room to the top with your votes or help out the other bloggers in all the categories here’s the link! It is a simple one-click vote, not registration requred. I am so grateful for your support. You can vote every hour or anytime you think of it, and you do NOT have to have the vote published to Facebook for it to count. I’m so excited to find other new blogs too, I’m pretty blown away by the talent and just humbled to see my face there.

It seems that the only people who can vote are those who are on the social media. I’m not. But though I can’t vote, you’re my favorite.
Thank you for your vote of confidence and sweet comment, I appreciate it! :-)
BHG is one of my favorite inspiration sites because it’s always full of fun, practical ideas and reachable design. Sounds like I’m describing The Inspired Room. Good luck, Melissa!!!
I am honored by the comparison, BH&G is a great magazine! I love it too. Thanks so much!
After glancing through all the blogs just to be sure I like yours the best, you win. Hands down. I like the serene, homey, yet styled home you have. I like BHandG magazine, and your home is the home that fits in the pages of their magazine.
Good Luck!
Well, how kind of you! Thank you so much!!!
Melissa,
Your blog was the very first one I began to follow because I loved your style and it was the closest to mine as well. I voted for you and hope to see you win! You deserve it. :-)
I’m very grateful, Sue, thank you for your support and kind words!! It means a lot.
Congratulations Melissa! Well deserved and so proud you’re a fellow Northwest girl!
Thank you Lisbeth!!! :-) We NW girls need to stick together! :-)
What a shame that we, who do NOT do social media like FB and Twtr, are excluded from voting! Not fair! So no votes from me. But I love your site anyway.
I agree, you should be able to vote another way! I bet there is, I might ask! :-) Thank you though!!! xoxo
CONGRATS! Just voted for you! And I’ll keep voting! If anyone deserves it, it’s you!! I just started my blog about 3mths ago. And now that I’m doing it although fun & rewarding, it’s a lot of work!! So I can only imagine the work that you have done to create such a “inspirational blog!” Good Luck! <3Kathy
Oh, yes, it is a lot of work! Thank you for your encouragement. Good luck to you in your new blog!!!
Congratulations and best wishes!
Thank you Debi!

I hope we will be seeing some posts about gardening soon, winter needs to take a hike! House decor is fun but I really enjoy the outdoor yard and garden posts, too. Seems like you had a big project going on back before Christmas.
Hi Kathy! Yes, I’m really excited about working in our yard this spring and summer! We got a good start last fall with our new pea gravel patio so it’s going to be really fun to get back to it! :-)
Thanks so much!!!
