Thanks, Washingtonian.com’s Blogger Beat!

Annie Elliott | July 22, 2009

Bossy color is featured in Washingtonian.com‘s “Blogger Beat” column today. Thanks, Washingtonian! Some of my wittier comments were left on the cutting room floor, but the interview includes some decent tips – especially about the ever-popular accent wall.
