Kimberly Duran of Swoonworthy.co.uk
If you are a fan of eclectic interior design then I have a blog that you will love. It’s called Swoonworthy.
Swoonworthy
Swoonworthy is an award winning UK interior design website run by Kimberly Duran ( @Redilocks on Twitter ) who lives with her partner Wayne, 2 cats and a puppy, just outside Manchester in a bright renovated Edwardian home.
Kimberly’s home has been transformed into a work of art over the last 5 years and the Swoonworthy blog chronicles all the work that went into transforming the property.
The Swoonworthy Blog
Kimberly’s blog features posts on DIY and interior design, including design challenges and decorating on a budget, as well as large, colourful photos that make reading her posts a joy.
Since the blog style is ‘Eclectic Boho Glam’ (think gold finishes, animal prints, touchable, textural fabrics and bold pattern mixing ) it takes a little while to take everything in from the photos.
However let me just say that it is worth taking the time to browse the photos as they contain numerous ideas that you can apply to your own home.
Swoonworthy is a quality blog that is well written with a nice layout that is easy on the eye. The posts are on the left of the page and in the right hand sidebar you’ll find lots of info to look through including some awards that Swoonworthy has won.
The awards that Swoonworthy has garnered include:
Winner Best of Interior Blogs: Most Creative Idea 2015
The Daily Telegraph: Top 10 UK Interiors Blog 2015
Shortlisted Blog for Amara Interior Blog Awards
Redrow: Top 10 Interior Design Bloggers
Kenngrayhome.com Best Interior Design Blogs 2014
Also in the right hand sidebar are some links to blogs which are recommended for daily reading.
These blogs include: The Interior DIYer, The Hunted Interior, The Gathered Home, StylebyEmilyHenderson and many more.
