Featured Story: August New Member Round-Up

New houseblog Wouter's Blog is documenting the renovation of a fixer-upper in Cape Town, South Africa.

It's been a long time since we last did a round up of the latest houseblogs to join Houseblogs.net.  As a result we've got 86 new houseblogs to share!  As always, we aren't going to be able to cite every single new blog here.  For a full list check out the latest additions to our blog directory to see them all.

Here are a few of the highlights:

- Check out the restoration of a 1901 rowhouse in the nation's capital at DC Rowhouse.

- There's great writing and regular updates at Inspired DIY.

- They're insulating their walls with denim at Oh Old Farmhouse.

- Nearly three years after the storm there are still amazing stories of renovations in New Orleans and great houseblogs like Did We Survive Hurricane Katrina or Not? are documenting the process.

- Read about a house being built entirely with foam core insulation at Foam Core Fantasy.

- The green-focused houseblogs continue to increase, like Green in Harlem and the energy efficient renovation at Home is a Process.

- They're working on a 1920s Pittsburgh renovation at Bless This DIY Mess.

- They bring an honest and humorous take on married life in a fixer-upper at Renovation Wars (gotta love the liberal use of little plastic army men).

That's just a sampling of what's new out there so if you haven't added a new houseblog to your favorites recently check them all out!
