    Default Where do you get your decorating ideas?

    I tend to get mine from magazines or television.  I love watching Trading Spaces and Design on a Dime.  I also like to look at the regular TV sitcom homes, they have some cute ideas and most are easily adaptable to everyday homes.  What about everyone, where do you get yours from?

    From two magazines I absolutely love, Country Living and Victorian.

    I also like to get decorating books at the public library - they have so many wonderful ideas in them.

    TV and different websites. I have some decorating mags from years ago that I find things in that I like as I am weeding through them. I like watching Decorating Cents and Design on a Dime. Wish we had some of the cool stores that the DOAD folks go to to find great buys.
