the d*s team and i are hard at work pulling together our very first design*sponge book and are looking for a few NEW entries to round things out. we’ve got more homes than we can shake a stick at (thank you!) but we’d love to add some new before & afters to the mix! we’ve chosen our favorites from the archives, but are looking for great new projects to publish. so, if you’ve got a project that will be finished by the last week in october please shoot me an email with your images RIGHT HERE. we’re excited to see before & afters at all levels, from refinishing projects to gut renos. i can’t wait to see all your hard work in print!
*we also have a few spots left for new diy projects, so feel free to email any home-related diy projects as well!
i also wanted to post these cute new ceramic pharmacy bottles from pigeon toe ceramics- the studio choo gals mentioned them in their post for today and i couldn’t resist. click here for more info and to order ($22-$26 each).

You should really check out the Life in the Fun Lane blog, Holly has the most amazing before and after pieces!
Great idea! I collect milk glass and these pharmacy bottles would mix in perfectly !
Uh-oh. I think I NEED to know what font you used for “Call for Before and After Submissions.” Please help!

blanking on the name- it’s under the “decorative” section of veer.com, like 10 entries down…

Yes! What are those yellow flowers called? I’ve seen them before and love them
craspedia is what they are called holly or billy buttons.
Craspedia. My new favorite flower. Just had them in my floral arrangements at my wedding last weekend. Stunning!
Would you be interested in room befores & afters that have been published in a UK magazine (no problem with photographer’s rights)?
andrea
possibly- send them over! :)

Hey there, we are finishing up a really big, cool reno project in our house… but it might not be fully furnished by the end of October (mostly though). Does that matter? Should I just send anyway and see what you think? :)
jess
send away :)

hi guys
quick note- if you want to accuse someone of copying multiple times, don’t use fake names under the same ip. an ip we can track to your other named comments.

Thanks, grace! That whole website is full of fonts that I love. Thank you for pointing me to it!
shannon
i just emailed you. please see my explanation there.

I’m so looking forward to your book! Sadly, we haven’t done enough work on our home to warrant any great before and after shots, but would you be interested in an office space? More specifically, a conference room turned creative space? Thanks!
erika
