MY SINCERE THANKS to all the readers who helped Retro Renovation capture 4th place in Apartment Therapy’s contest to name the favorite home-design blog of 2009. A little over a week ago, it was a nail-biting finish to get into the finals. Were we in 7th – out? Or 6th – in? Woah. You kept voting right up to the last-minute and pushed us into the top 6 out of more than 600 blogs listed. Then this week, you kept the pedal to the mid-century metal and brought home more than 400 votes and 4th place. That’s a fantastic finish — and wonderful visibility for mid-century *modern* and *modest* alike. Hmmm. Why do I have a feeling it’s gonna be a good year? 🙂 Congratulations to the Homies winner, Remodelista, and to the other finalists, who clearly are having a blast sharing their passion, as well. To help us celebrate: My main man, and hardest-working guy in rock ‘n roll, circa 1985. Oh my. xoxo
