If you appear in this Top 100 list then feel free to take your badge from the sidebar to proudly display on your blog.

We had a lot of new entries this quarter pushing the play list to well over 150 blogs. There has also been a lot of movement in the list. This quarter is based on 01 June to 31 August. This period is typically a slower period for many due to school holidays and children home. Posting was a lot lighter this period- I wonder why?
The top 100 play blogs are here. Please take time to visit each one and we’re sure you’ll love what you see.

Then stop now pull up a chair and you are in for a treat. You have come to the right place!

When we look up a Decorators in Yellow Pages we get a huge listing. How do you pick the right type of Decorator? You soon build up a list of Decorators who do very different things. The painter who does a fine job of painting the outside of the house. The one who will paint and do touch up jobs. The children’s bedroom decorator who specialises in murals. The fine finishers… You get our point. Through a lot of trial and error and friends or perhaps Angies List you have a folder of Decorators a list you go to when you have a job. It’s not a closed folder. You add to it.
