After a bit of a sleepy start, the year started moving full-steam ahead this week. A few things that have caught our eyes:

Did you hear about the bizarre smell of natural gas permeating through midtown Manhattan the other day? Charles and Hudson uses this freak incident as reminder on how to detect gas leaks in your home.

While our closets were crumbling, Gizmodo found another home improvement project worth considering. Check out this poorman’s flat screen tv (as shown above).

Leave it to Decor8 to introduce us to the newest design blogs. Check out the lovely All The Best from the UK.

The store at Design*Sponge has some cute Sea-patterned cards. Which reminds us of a comment we got here earlier in the week. Are fish are the new deer?

Happy Mundane pointed out some cute Martha Stewart plates at Kmart worth considering.

And Chicago Apartment Therapy is getting us excited about Top Design the new reality show on Bravo that is right up our Shelterrific alley. Obsessive fans are already gathering here.
