Under $100 Linky Party

I had fun reading your opinions from the questions I asked a few days ago.  Here is a little of what I garnered from you:  Colors are a matter of preference--hard to say what is hot.  I do know orange is popular, everything that was painted orange at Junk Fest sold, however some of you do NOT like it.  Burlap is over.  Someone mentioned that burlap became trendy when the economy tanked because it is inexpensive fabric--I agree.  I had a discussion recently with someone who thinks garden themes are becoming big because everyone is into growing their own food, even in the city.  It was actually this conversation that led to me asking the questions.  Painted furniture is more popular (well, according to my very teeny tiny survey) and you are not sure where the hippest place is (I wanted to plan a trip there--work related of course).

And, without question you DO NOT like the read more format, as nor do I.  When I discover a new blog especially, I want to be able to read lots of older posts at once without clicking back and forth.  I have noticed so many of the "bigger" blogs have gone to this format and it does clean up the page and you are able to see more posts on a page, but realized I was rarely clicking to read more, even on some of my favorite blogs.  So, no worries, I will not be going to that format and for those of you who have, you may want to rethink it as this question seemed to get the most definite response.

Now to show you some creative trends from last week's linky party:
