House Porn

In my house we call it "House Porn". Yes, it's kind of an addiction for me. I can get lost for hours looking through home decorating magazines. All the different ideas! All the pictures! I dream and imagine all the things I could do (Im also dreaming about money at the same time since not all the great ideas are free).

I think this addiction scares my husband a little since inevitably I put the magazine down and start talking about all these AMAZING things I just saw that we can buy... build... dream!

I have many favorites: Cottage Living, Country Living, Costal Living,(I know thats a lot of Living) Elle Decor, House Beautiful, Better Homes and Garden, Sunset and my old favorite that went out of print, Domino (that was a sad day for the world). All of these have different perks. Even when they are photographing million dollar homes with items you could never afford there is always some way you can tweak something to make it work for your life and I am a pro at tweaking!

So, I corral my "House Porn" in a cute container and try to pare down as much as I can so I don't become the next person on that show "Hoarders". Im pretty sure though that this addiction is one I wont ever be able to kick!
