Why vote?

People have asked me many times since we started our blog why we decided to let other people make decisions about our home instead of just doing it ourselves. It’s a good question and we have a number of answers. One is, as we have said before, we don’t love making decisions ourselves and this takes that burden away. Thank you for that, dear readers and voters! Another is, someday we will want to sell this house (more on when “someday” might be in this post) and the more opinions we get from all of you, the more likely we are to consider every opinion of a potential buyer. Another is, as personal as home decisions may be, there are many people who read this blog who have experiences and/or training that I do not have and they are kind enough to share ideas and knowledge that I wouldn’t have access to without this forum. I am SO grateful for that. That said, whether you are formally trained in something design related, have experimented with your own house, or just spend a lot of time watching HGTV- we value your feedback and opinions so much and hope that you will keep sharing them with us.
