Are you a Lookiloo?

February 11, 2009 by Minnie 1 Comment

I met Sheila Bernus Dowd at the She’s Geeky conference last week and while we were eating lunch and talking about bee keeping she told me about her new site Lookiloos.

Are you a Lookiloo?

You love your home, not just for what it is, but for what you know it can become. You have read “Under the Tuscan Sun” and are convinced that the greatest dinner parties are only a remodel away. Peeking into other people’s homes gives you design ideas, but it also feeds your secret fantasies _ and there’s nothing wrong with a good fantasy. You brake for open houses.

The Lookiloos Mission

To indulge the inner Lookiloo in all of us – to inspire creativity and satisfy curiosity by showcasing great architecture, landscapes, design and decor. To connect Lookiloos with home improvement and real estate-related resources and events. And to provide a community forum to share advice, insights and stories of home.

They list open homes and have a great section of interview tour videos where people talk about their favorite spaces and show you around. There are so many things to explore on this site! It’s the ultimate stalker design whore’s dream, so go check out the Lookiloo’s site!

Independent Crafters Information

On the Indie Crafts section of CraftGossip I like to support other indie artists by posting tips about running a handmade business, blogging and other helpful information. Once a week I try to feature handmade shops to showcase their work. I also like to share trendy, popular DIY's that I think are amazing and hope you do as well. If you are an Independent Artist or want to start a handmade business, this is the place to find resources. Or if you just love DIY's and everything crafty I hope you'll find some fun projects to make and be inspired by the artists I feature!
