Design Mom Marketplace



As promised, it's time for the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!


For the last month I've been putting together a new feature on my blog. It's called Marketplace. And it's just for you. And I'm really excited about it.


Almost every day, I receive emails from vendors letting me know about deals and discounts they want to offer to Design Mom readers. Of course, when it's a vendor I know you'll love, I want to pass the news along, but this blog would get bogged down if it was non-stop discount announcements all day long.


So I've come up with this solution: I've put all the deals and discounts and bargains and specials in one place. You'll be able to find them easily, whenever you need them. Like when you're shopping for a just right baby gift, an extra-special hostess gift, a super-cool birthday gift, a pick-me-up for yourself, new mod bedding for the nursery, a little bling for your night out. . .

Plus. I've tried hard to make Marketplace really pretty and fun to look at. With the hope that perusing the deals will feel a little like window-shopping. Without the crowds or lines or food courts.
Whenever you need a deal, just click the Marketplace button in my sidebar and it will take you right where you want to be.

And November 1st seems like just the right day to launch this, don't you think? It's time to start making Holiday gift lists. Maybe Marketplace will help you have your best shopping season ever.
