I would like to nominate my blog Fred Gonsowski Garden Home.Com for Best New Design Blog. My blog is in it’s second year, and I cover topics relating to interior decorating and gardening.
Some of the Design posts that I’ve written cover How to Hang Curtains and Drapes, How to pick the Right color for your front Door, Mixing and Matching Patterns, Arranging Furniture, and Decorating for Christmas to name a few.
I’ve also posted many gardening articles that cover planting ideas that I think would work in many different climate zones.
