Profile: Absolutely Beautiful Things

Anna of Absolutely Beautiful Things


When I started my blog at the beginning of 2007, it was purely a personal style file. I had NO idea anyone else would come to "visit" so to speak! I also had no idea that I would find so many fantastic blogs.

The first fantastic blog I stumbled across was Absolutely Beautiful Things. The name alone was enough to hook me, and then I fell for the talented Anna. Anna is the creative genius behind the blog and owner of Black & Spiro.

  5. Welcome to the the UK. There's not many of us UK design bloggers so it's nice to have a bit of company. Love your blog.
