Acknowledgement Feels Great!

I had such a wonderful surprise last week when I opened my email and found that Pearl from the inspirational website "The Beading Gem" had selected my blog to receive the "Lemonade Award".

"What is the Lemonade Award?" you might say...

The Lemonade award is given for gratitude and attitude.

The rules are:


1.Put the logo on your blog or post
2.Nominate blogs that show great Gratitude and/or Attitude and link to your post.
3. Let them know they have received this award by leaving a comment on their blog.

Isn't that the coolest?

It made my day.


Thank you Pearl!

and see all of the great content on her site!



Below is the very thoughtful blurb she wrote about my site...



Pamela Vale is a multi-talented artist who lives up to the name of her shop and blog for she is just a-bubbling with lots of ideas. Like me, she also believes you can make great jewelry from unusual materials such as a bracelet a clear plastic tubing stuffed with pretty yarns. Dipping into her past posts, you can find off-centred wire worked bails, trompe l'oeil paintings, artwork, home decor and a series of antique store finds such as this jewelry display. Her artistic eye also results in some clever jewelry photography ideas such as using scrapbook props (not paper). Her floating earring photo shoot was really cool! She does indeed see potential in everything around her. So thank you for inspiring us all.
