    This magazine will be even better with you in it! I want to see projects and before/afters. Whether they are outdoor projects or for interior design, I love seeing how people improve their lives and surroundings for themselves. It would also be nice to see a highlight of flea markets or stores that people frequent to get their FOLK look and create their FOLK lifestyles. Much of the shopping can prove unconventional and that is the fun of it! I.e., home depot stair rails for candlesticks, hemp rope to make a bowl…

    I just included you and Folk in a status on facebook. I sure hope I win this subscription. Maybe an idea for the magazine would be to have photo contests- for readers to submit photos of local places and items that go along with the “Folk” themes. jenmad9696@hotmail.com

    In FOLK, I hope to read tutorials that are user friendly and don’t require materials that are too expensive or are hard to find. I hope to see beautiful photographs that inspire and reflect the spirit of DIY, Americana, and entrepreneurialism. Also, I love to read stories about how small business owners got their starts!

    I just “liked” FOLK! on facebook! I was thinking I would also love to see pictures of items that people have around their house and can’t part with but don’t know what to do with them. And then have readers, or the editors of FOLK! give suggestions or better yet, show some before and after ideas. (Can you guess that I have a lot of things I would love to repurpose, but have no idea what to repurpose them for!)

    Wowza! Good for you, girl. This looks right up your alley. Well, and mine to be truthful 🙂 What I’d like to see in FOLK is how to apply a folk/ junk/ upcycled style into new-build homes. So often we end up with pictures of gorgeous old farmhouses or victorian beauties and have no idea how to translate our style into the actual suburban lovelies we are trying to decorate.

    Donna, I would love to win the subscription to Folk. I think it would be great if they had a series and each month highlighted great places for junk, craft and flea market shopping in different parts of the country, especially big vacation destinations like Florida so that even if we don’t live there, we might visit and then know where the good shopping is. I live in Ontario and have learned about lots of good stores in the U.S. from reading blogs but it would be neat if a magazine ran a series on shopping in popular vacation destinations.
