NEWS: Magazines CLOSING
Last week I came upon A Cup of Jo who had breaking news that Domino Magazine is shutting their doors. I was so sad to hear this news. Domino doesn’t exactly fit into the Rustic * Western * Vintage genre we LOVE, but it has offered fresh, off beat ideas that {with a little imagination} translate into any style of home. Domino has also dished up some dandy images that infuse rustic fabrics & landscape-inspired art into more modern spaces {BELOW}.
Even more heart wrenching are the other mags that have printed their final issues over the last few months…
- House & Garden {after 106 years you say? sigh.}
-
O at Home {BTW – the editor from O at Home, Sarah Gray Miller, has replaced former Country Living editor, Nancy Soriano.}
-
Cottage Living {November/December was the last issue.}
And, BRACE YOURSELVES for this one: Country Home is also closing their doors. Do you hear my sobs?? I can’t imagine life without images like this…
Peace out old friends, your yellowed pages will forever fill the boxes in my basement… Fancy

I was crushed to hear about Country Home as well! I can’t believe Domino too! I thought Domino was doing so well! I think April is the last issue for Country Home. So sad!

I heard about Country Home & Cottage Living, but not Domino. Is Country Living going to make it?? I hope so, there isn’t anything else country out there, that is any good!

Jane’s Blog {http://www.countryliving.com/janes-blog/], which I have followed on Country Living.com is fading, but I believe {desperately hope} that CL will continue to SHINE. I guess it is going to be up to the bloggers for a while… which means you need to send me pics, girls!! Show off your casas & lets keep Rustic * Western * Vintage style evolving!!!

My friend KT just told me that Mary Engelbreit’s Home Companion magazine has also folded. I’m not familiar with this mag, but I know that it is the BOMB for a lot of girls that I know, all of whom have fabulous STYLE.

There’s MORE…
I just read that Shabby Chic has filed Chapter 11. Geez ~ time to hunker down and FOCUS. One day, one penny at a time. If you are still standing at the end you will prosper. May God be with us all.
