If the details aren't "right", then the whole won't be either. A friend actually suggested the name "An Eye for Detail" and right away I liked it. My house, my clothes,my jewelry, my work: they are all made up of carefully chosen details. The name is also so broad that I can include any subject!

Sorry I am late to responding...got home from the "big move in" last night!<br /><br />First of all, thank you so much for including me and the timing is unbelievable. Every so often I receive an email about my blog name and just this weekend, picking up acorns, I thought I need to finish my post about this!<br /><br />The name came about very quickly. I have loved the scroll of the Acanthus Leaf in design for as long as I can remember. The motif shows up many places in my home. As for Acorn, fall is my favorite season and I love trees and walks down tree lined streets or paths picking up acorns. I think they are just beautiful! And, it reminds me too of when my children were small and they would gladly set out with me on a "acorn hunt"!<br /><br />Such a treat to learn about so many other names!Acanthus and Acornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08603547994268012876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-15575012225672139822010-08-22T05:36:40.127-07:002010-08-22T05:36:40.127-07:00Darling Kathysue,

I've always been interested in how bloggers come up with the name of their blogs & and you have given us some great stories.<br /><br />My blog is new & I named it Ampersand Design for a number of reasons. Firstly, I love ampersands. It's a lovely motif that resonates with quite a lot of people in the design arena. Also, it incorporates a part of my name "sand" & my life is wide & varied so Ampersand (&) Design seemed apt. I also hope to use this as my business name.<br /><br />Thanks once again for such a greta post that reveals a little more about the blogger behind the blog.<br /><br />Sandy KAmpersand Designhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00434653558710645382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-70830771434011222582010-08-21T14:23:48.958-07:002010-08-21T14:23:48.958-07:00What a wonderful and interesting post!

I have enjoyed reading about how people have named their blogs! <br />In April I was down and just not feeling happy and feeling just awful about myself. I had an interest in starting a blog but really didn't do much about it. April 30th I decided to begin a blog , so I needed a name. I was thinking about what exactly I wanted to write about and of course a name. <br />I decided on writing about how I was feeling badly about myself and the canges I needed to make. Bringing Pretty Back came to me . I didn't know how to blog , so I just started with the first post , which was the quote by Coco Chanel. Ironically I saw the quote the morning I started the blog and it was PERFECT! The name BPB can be applied to so many aspects of our lives, not just our appearance that it is the most perfect name I could have came up with. Silly as it sounds , BPB has changed my life. I hope this comment makes sense! I am just kind of rambling! <br />Have a pretty day! <br />KristinBring Pretty Backhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11809961135225963623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5210558362945352459.post-17191894659843915172010-08-21T12:56:19.392-07:002010-08-21T12:56:19.392-07:00Hey Kathysue!!!
