I don’t have a whole lot of time today, but I just wanted to give you a heads up about a new online magazine, Pure Green Living! It was designed and edited by Celine of the Pure Green blog and it is chock full of stylish, eco-friendly goodness. Celine is definitely a woman after my own heart!

Of late, our kitchen resembles a study in what NOT to do in terms of decor. Rather that cute bread boxes or bowls of fruit, our counters are adorned with bread and fruit — in the same containers or bags they were in when we brought them home. The SodaStream soda maker that we never use in sitting in one corner, and the coffee machine we never use is sitting in another. In the final example of what not to do, a paper towel holder is in another corner — strange, since we stopped using paper towels 2 years ago.

Soooo, I officially feel like a rock star. My master bedroom headboard was featured on Young House Love yesterday, and the response has been awesome! I just wanted to write a quick post thanking Sherry and John and welcoming readers from YHL. Here’s a little something to really get your noses into, if you’re interested in sticking around (and I hope you are!).
You’ve seem my master bedroom, and here are some other posts and areas that I think you might like:

If you’ve been making the rounds on the design blogs today, you know that it’s #NateDay on Twitter and in blogland. Basically, we’re all excited that ever-fabulous interior designer Nate Berkus, of Oprah fame, finally has his own show, which premieres September 13. As much as I love HGTV, I have to admit that I get tired of shows like “House Hunters” and “Designed to Sell.” I can’t wait to watch an entire show dedicated to style and fabulous interiors by a man who really knows what he’s doing.

I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching about my passions and the future of Green Your Decor. Lately, I’ve been writing a lot more about my own projects and things that I’m working on. It’s not that there’s a shortage of great green products to write about. In fact, I have so many bookmarked that its unlikely I’ll ever get to all of them.
It’s just that I personally love reading design blogs where the writer shares their projects and processes, tidbits about their lives, photos of their trips and day-to-day activities, before-and-afters, etc. It makes them feel more engaged and personal, in my opinion, and I’d love for my readers to have the same warm and fuzzy feelings about me as I do about my favorite bloggers.

I’m Jennae Petersen, and I’m a lot of things. A mother, a graphic artist, a connosieur of beautiful interiors and a purveyor of all things design. Green Your Decor was borne of frustration in my attempts to find eco-friendly housewares that were also beautiful, and inspiration to do something to reduce my own carbon footprint and help others do the same in a beautiful way.
I get this question a lot, so I wanted to make the answer easy to find. Yes, I am a graphic designer, and I designed this site myself. The theme I’m using is called Thesis, and I think it’s the best WordPress theme out there. Your site can look pretty much any way you want it to. Want to know more?

The best theme ever: THESIS
