Christine Tse Hi, I am starting a virtual interior design business, and I currently have a blog where I show what I can do, and also my inspirations. And my question is should I create a website and merge my blog with it? If you were looking for an interior designer, what problems would you want them to solve for you? Would you hire a virtual interior designer? Any feedback/comments will be greatly appreciated. Here is my blog: http://chez-cha.blogspot.com/

Vanessa Alvarado Since we're on the topic of HG-TV, is anyone getting sick of how redundant it's getting? I'm not learning anything useful and there's too many re-runs. They're making DIY a joke- I thought DIY was supposed to be about thrift and saving money, not going out of your way to add more costs.

Hello everyone! I'm new to Brazen, and just found this group. So, are you guys/ladies just interested in interiors, or real state/houses/landscaping in general also (i.e. HGTV-like)?

And it is very smart to have two or more plans career--wise, if only not constrict yourself and suffocate actual fulfillment.

P.S. Thanks for fan-ing me!

Vanessa Alvarado Anyone here good at identifying the era a furniture piece is from? I spied a cool set of chairs at $12.99 each. They'd need a bit of work, but I like them. Should I get them? Picture: http://twitpic.com/pza0y
