This may be a sign that I am getting older but I don’t immediately dismiss shelter magazines like I once did. An old Domino magazine crossed my path this weekend and I spent an hour reading it. But you know what I really miss? I miss Blueprint.
If precious twentysomething style had a shelter magazine Blueprint was it. I knew the magazine died (I am kicking myself for not getting a subscription to support its killer editorial) but after my Domino experience I figured I could at least enjoy the Blueprint website. WRONG! They let that die too. Come on Martha, how the hell are we supposed to grow up to be like you if we don’t have a good starter magazine?
I would wager precious twentysomethings aren’t spendy enough or they spend on Marni and not Smeg but come on, I am going to hit my mid twenties soon and I am starting to feel the urge to take shelter!
Yes, yes! I remember, and loved, Blueprint! Too sad that it went under, along with that stalwart mother’s magazine, House and Garden.
