I WON at The Feathered Nest 900th blog!!!

Dawn of The Feathered Nest choose my blog to win her 900th post giveaway!!! I am so honored to have "anything" from her creative hands & heart. She is such a lovely person and so generous with the talents that the Lord has blessed her with. I started blogging in May 2008 because of her encouragement. She has truely blessed my life in so many ways but most of all because she truely cares about each of her followers. When I talk with her she always makes me feel that I am important. That is a true gift of love. Thank you dear Dawn for the beautiful Journal that you made while nursing you son back to health & laboring over the love of being a new grand mother. I know you are cherishing each second spent kissing those precious little cheeks!! (I would love to see some pictures of Grandma with the new baby,,,hint hint)

Look at this beautiful barn and the lavender flowers shining in front! Because of Dawn I found another wonderful, brand new blogger Linda K. of White Linen~Lavender! She has such an interesting blog about her family in Wisconsin and she makes lovely art work for us to use. If you have not already done so...Check her out. She is new loves seeing new people come by. I find it is hard to get with the right group that seems to "fit" my style, well she sure fits mine and I thought I would introduce her also. Dawn ran a spot for her a while back and she has had several people finding out what a treasure she truely is to the blog world.

I want to personally thank each one who has so generously stopped by to see what I am up to on my blog. You truely "make my day " when you leave a note! I get kinda discouraged when I don't know who is "out there" and IF my work on this blog means anything to anyone...I know all bloggers go through that period of time when they wonder if the time is worth it but your kind coments has helped so much. I must start showing you some of the jewelry pieces that I am working on...soon, I promise...sharon
