Many thanks....

Several days ago, the lovely and talented Carita of JealousyDesign awarded me with the Proximidade Blog Award. I'm deeply touched and honored that my little corner of the blog-osphere was recognized. Thank you, Carita!

Proximidade is described as follows:'This blog invests and believes in PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships. These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes for self-aggrandizement! Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers!'This blog award should be sent to your favorite eight bloggers and they, in turn should forward to eight of their favorites. You should include the text for Proximidade (above) in your announcement blog.

As I have to choose only eight, the Proximidade Award goes to:

Stimulated Mind
ThePeachTree
Nanouke
Olive Bites
theVINTAGEblog
GETREADYSETGO
transition
JLeighDesigns


It'll do you good to pay these blogs a visit yourself. :)

I also wanted to thank the following lovely people for creating beautiful treasuries that got me some more Etsy front page exposure last week! I don't know about other folks, but to me, getting on the front page is always a big deal and I can't thank you enough for your help. Positive etsy karma is on its way back to you! :D

Thank you, JealousyDesign

Please visit these wonderful shops for some fabulous handmade goodness! I guarantee you'll find some great Valentine's gifts if you do!
