Decor magazines have long been my "one weakness" as Miss Lane would say. (see below)  I seem to have acquired this great love early in life.  I am still carrying around vintage volumes my mother purchased in the 70's.  True story.  

A thrifty homemaking tip is shopping your own house.  I do this each season with the magazines.  They are not cheap and my style has been pretty consistent over the years.  So while I might purchase something new each season, it will join the keepers on display and I will continue to glean idea from them in years to come.  

PS if you somehow are not familiar with Miss Lane or if you are as fond of her as we are you will enjoy this:
