After a long weekend of spending quality time with friends & family, and eating way too much delicious Christmas food, I’m feeling especially “cozy” today. The kind of cozy that makes you want to stay in your pajamas all day, and catch up on classic movies while relaxing on the couch with dogs, kids, & [...]

I’ve been so busy trying to save the world by unsubscribing to catalog mailings (thanks to CatalogChoice.org) that I have forgotten about the color inspiration that can come from a well laid out product assortment. Browsing Pinterest over my Sunday morning coffee, I happened upon a wonderfully bright & cheery image from a recent J. [...]

My sister, Theresa, has such a great eye for photography, and really, anything beautiful. Totally self-taught when it comes to taking photos (albeit, armed with a pretty awesome camera), she is constantly posting great pics on her Facebook profile. Today’s color inspiration has been lifted from one she added this past week, an image of some succulents she acquired at the San Diego Zoo, placed artfully in wine corks.
With blogs becoming a standard business tool, many times hosted on a separate domain or subdomain from a company’s main website, the question arises frequently: What icon do I use on my website to link visitors to my blog?
