Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to Define Your Blog week with a chance for YOU to join in on Thursday.
If you'd like to take your seats, I'll take you through your schedule for this week at Modern Country Style. Would you turn to page twenty-four of pamphlet you were given at the door....
Wait, what do you mean there was no pamphlet?....and no door either?....and no seats?....
Well, then, I guess it's just me and you, baby.
Here's how I plan this week to go. Starting today, I'm going to do a li'l series of posts defining how I see each area of my blog: renovation, inspiration and creation.

And then on Thursday 14th, it'll be time for YOU to link up to the Define Your Blog link party. Please feel free to link up either a post that you feel defines your blog to perfection, or, preferably, a post specifically dedicated to defining your blog.

When I first started Modern Country Style, I decided that I wanted my blog to have three aspects to it:
Inspiration, Renovation and Creation.
In today's post, I'm going to
define the five types of Inspiration posts I use
at Modern Country Style:

1) Paint Colours
When I'm choosing paint colours, I love searching out pictures of rooms painted in the colours I'm pondering over. I thought it might be helpful for other people to collate them in one place.

2) Celebrity and Film Inspiration
From lovelies such as Nigella....need I say more?
