Brillante Weblog Award Nominees

I have come back from an exhausting but successful 5 days of exhibiting at the Sanlam SA Fashion Week to find that my blog has been nominated for the Brillante Weblog Award by Shalana from the Funky Felter.

Shalana shares the following with us in her blog,

Granted, it is not a real deal blog award, but rather a hoax. According to JeweledRabbit's post, you can even find the award listed at the Museum of Hoaxes. Even though nobody is winning a prize with this fake award, I still think it is a fun way to give admiration to a few fellow bloggers who's posts I enjoy reading.

Because I felt the same way, I decided to join in. At the end of my "7 nominees" , you'll find a list of the rules for participating.

I have to admit that it was hard to choose just 7 but here are the blogs that I thought deserved a mention. They are in no particular order:

1. Little Loveables I love how you feel as if you have been friends with the writer for years
   
2. Paper and Stitch Interesting blog. Gorgeous tutorials and DIY projects.
   
3. Handmade Showcase Wonderful blog that introduces us to independent artists through giveaways and interviews. Lovely read.
4. The Funky Felter Wonderful blog filled with tips, personal touches, helpful pointers and you get to know the lady behind the label "I Love Felt".
5. Handmade Network Excellent blog. Very informative and filled with wonderful Etsy news, stores.
   
6. Try Handmade Wonderful blog promoting handmade products. Full of gorgeous finds.
   
7. Pink Crab Creations Fun blog. Full of personal tidbits and lovely posts.
   

For those nominated who want to participate, here are the rules for participating in this game:

1. Add the logo of the "award" to your blog;

2. Add a link to the blog of the person who "awarded" it to you to your blog list;

3. "Nominate" at least seven other blogs;

4. Add links to those blogs on your blog;

5. Leave a message for each of the "nominees" on his or her blog.

I hope that my readers will find my nominations to be interesting and worthy. As for the nominees, I do really enjoy everyone of your blogs for different reasons. Best wishes to all of you and your blogging adventures!
