Since I became a interior design blogger {in addition to being a locally practicing interior designer} I have had a ton of questions as what I do in a day. Well every day is different depending on what projects are dictating it, but here is a quick little ‘looksy’ into a typical day of blogging…
I thought it might be fun to show you a ‘typical’ day in the life of an interior design blogger during this years Blogiversary! Remember, I do offer interior design services locally, so the day below is a typical blogging day… not design day!
Our Blog: We design your interior & ours one story at a time!
Kevin wakes up, takes
Takes Bentley {who then sits & waits for me to wake up}
& Goes to the gym
Kevin makes coffee for me & gets to work
I leisurely wake up {yes, I am not a morning person},
Grab my cell phone to see the vast amount of email & comments awaiting my attention
Run downstairs & grab a cup of coffee & breakfast!
Quiet time reading my devotional,
Toss on clothes & walk upstairs to the office
Proofread the post for the day & upload any last photos.
The post of the day is officially posted {sometimes a little later depending},
I began responding to any & all comments
Begin emails by priority
Move onto any E-DÉCOR clients projects
Take Bentley “Boo Mouve” out on a short walk
Eat lunch & take care of any emails left
Occasionally we will catch a few minutes of news
Follow up with all E-Décor & Local Design Clients
Work on blog posts for the week
Complete any ‘projects’ around the home for posts
Time for fresh air & a bike ride or walk to the mailbox & around the neighborhood {While dinner is in oven}
Dinner Time!
TV/ Quality Time : Depending on the day, sometimes it is TV shows or a movie, sometimes right back upstairs to work if Kevin works late too!
A quick check on the blog on my cell
Go over my ‘to-do’ list for the next day!
BED! Bentley gets in his ‘house’ and we are off to sleep!
Now obviously, I take ‘field trips’ to Target, Thrift Stores, Home Decor Stores, Fabric Stores & Lowes from time to time too! It’s all in a days work!
I also thought you might be interested on how I make this blog work for me while also being a full time interior designer… I keep organized!

That is a ‘typical’ day! Although you could add or take away anything depending on the day. I adore blogging and am truly happy to use my interior design skills to inspire you to love design too!

Sarah-
Thanks! Come back this week… we are going to be featuring a “You’ve Asked, We Answered” post!!
This was a great post. It’s encouraging to see that people can have lives apart from their blogs and have enough time to keep up with their blogs.
