Has the Internet run out of Space?

According to CNN - On Thursday(today), the Internet as we know it (kind of) ran out of space. Read more here. Now we know there is a back up plan, but yikes - could you imagine? Interesting to think about.

Speaking of our livelihood...Show me where you blog, surf the net, etc... and I will post them here on Bright Bold and Beautiful. Do you sit on the couch with your iPad? Do you blog at your desk in your home office? E-mail your photos to laura.trevey@gmail.com

Monday Inspiration and Blogging Success Tips

I have seen so many inspirational blog posts that have come from attending the

Alt Design Summit. I think I better join the forces and attend one of these amazing conferences soon!

I love these tips from Tina of SwissMiss via Design for Mankind

1. Nobody can tell you what’s best for you.

2. Surrounding yourself with smart people is key.

3. Don’t just talk; do it. (If it fails, move on.)

4. Be kind and generous. It comes back to you.

5. Your enthusiasm and integrity are your biggest assets.

6. It is possible.

This list from Erin of Apartment34 is just as thought provoking!

1. Collaborate, collaborate, collaborate
2. Hold regular kickin' resource parties
3. Aspire to be uber-nice (like Erin Loechner, aka the human sparkler)

– it’s so much better than the alternative

... and one more list (too long to copy and paste, but definitely worth the read)

is by Marisa on Creative Thursday.

A fantastic list of resources on Not Martha that you don't want to miss!

I hope this inspires you today! Have a super week, and

stay tuned for a fabulous giveaway!

Thank You for the Mention

Jen, the author of Made By Girl was one of the first blogs I started reading a couple of years ago. I am happy to call her a friend and I was thrilled to be a part of her holiday series: One Gift. The gift I chose was the Pottery Barn Daily System - and can you believe that I received it from my husband? See it displayed in my home office below. I love it and it keeps me organized!

Thank you Louise at Table Tonic for mentioning Bright Bold and Beautiful on your fabulous blog as well as purchasing a couple of my favorite watercolor prints! I can't wait to see them framed ...

Louise, the Sydneysider, is fun loving and she spills her enthusiasm for life into her incredibly entertaining and inspirational blog! Oh, and prior to that? The Creative Director of Cosmopolitan, Cleo and Dolly magazine in Australia. Also, check out the cool store, Table Tonic : Global Treasures for the Modern Bohemian.

Also, most of you are familiar with Erin's gorgeous blog, House of Turquoise. But did you know that she has so many others? Decor Green, Pop of Red, Everything Turquoise to name a few! If you are looking for any item with a certain color scheme, she has the blog for you. Thank you Erin for featuring my green hydrangea watercolor art painting on DecorGreen!

and in case you missed it, pick up an issue of Fresh Home magazine! I am thrilled to be a part of the Winter 2011 issue - on stands now.

If you have posted about Bright Bold and Beautiful and/or my Watercolor Art, please drop me an e-mail. Also, I would love to see your framed artwork purchased from my shop: Watercolors by Laura Trevey. Send photos and blog links to laura.trevey@gmail.com
