No, ODAM isn't a new 4-letter word! It's the acronym for Outdoor Decor and More … you know, this site!

One of the reasons I targeted the outdoor decor line was because of my own home. I live in San Diego and the housing prices have doubled in the last 6 years … not unlike many parts of the country. Rising housing prices have changed the way people think about their homes. If you are preparing to sell, you have (or should have) learned how important curb appeal is to adding value to your home. But, more importantly, people are now having to maximize the living space they already have. This means making your outdoor spaces as useful, attractive, and relevant to your lifestyle as any of your indoor spaces. That's why I especially enjoy selling the outdoor decor products on my site and why I decided to expand the "conversation" aspect of this concept with my blog.

I know you'll get as excited as I am about the whole idea and really challenge yourself to making your yard and garden all it can be!
