by Karli Sanders Cook May 25, 2010 7 Comments

These five designers are never at a loss for tweet-worthy topics and design advice.

@PGraceDesigns Paula Grace Halewski-Zarnick has a background in psychotherapy and she uses this to her advantage. She specializes in rooms that energize the clients they were made for.

@StarrMiller Starr Miller excels in listening to clients’ needs. She has years of experience and shares her knowledge with readers.

@ATatumStudio We love Annette Tatum around here and can’t get enough of her stylish and informative tweets.

@WandaSHorton You may not know North Carolina designer, Wanda Horton, but after following her blog, you’ll think she’s your best (and most stylish) friend.

@ColinJustin HGTV Canada’s Colin McCallister and Justin Ryan are some of the nicest and most talented designers around. I follow them for inspiration and a good laugh.
