VERY IMPORTANT: If you are a brand we HAVE to test your products before you can become a blogger for Decorator Dad.

This is because we are in the unique position of having a great reputation for recommending only the best DIY products and services which we can only do when we try these first hand.

Unfortunately if your products can’t be tested by our focus groups at Decorator Dad, we can’t publish your posts.

Any guest blogger that consistently submits poor quality content that doesn’t meet our guidelines will be removed from the site.

We only accept Guest Bloggers that have a proven history of creating great content online.
