The finalists in each category for the Made in Blog (MiB) Best Canadian Blog awards as determined by reader voting have been announced.
This is the first year I participated in the awards process ( Home Design category). Thanks to everyone who voted for this blog because you helped Designing Home make it to the top ten. A panel of judges will now decide the winners in each category. Stay tuned for that big announcement.
One of the advantages of my participation was an introduction to other Canadian blogs that I didn't know. Perhaps there's a blog or two in the list that you might like to check out or follow. Click here see the top ten list for home design.
You might also like to check in on A Pop of Pretty, another St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador blog that's also in the top ten for home design.
Kerri of A Pop of Pretty is currently participating in a Canadian Blogger Christmas Home Tour. There are loads of close up photos of all her decorating efforts for this year's French Inspired Christmas Theme. As she says in her blog description she loves all things pretty and there's no doubt that comes through in her space.
If you'd like to see what other Canadian home owners are doing to get their homes ready for the festive season you can begin with Kerri and then link up to other open houses in blogland right across the country. The link list is at the bottom of her post.

As I followed the links myself, I found another local blog Adventures of the Uncommon Common Law from St. John's. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Becki's take on a modern Scandinavian inspired Christmas. And why wouldn't I? Her space has lots of neutrals, textures, clean lines, and white- a graphic delight.
After visiting the homes of all these young energetic bloggers here's me- the grandmother blogger- ill prepared right now for the festive season.
I have no home tour to offer, but I will have a Christmas post or two when I get the hang of my fancy new camera. My decorating efforts, as you may know from past posts at Christmas, are a bit understated and usually consist of recycling and rearranging what I currently have. I've begun to pull things out, and I'm happy to report my husband made me a lovely trough box (from recycled wood, yet to be painted) for an arrangement.
I'm feeling nostalgic this year and thought my granddaughters would enjoy seeing my collection of wooden Santas I've painted over the years. Until more exciting things happen here, I'll leave you to enjoy the links above. Have fun.
Am I the only one who needs to get moving on Christmas?
