A Weekend of Awards!

Good Morning, hope you all had a lovely weekend! I had 2 lovely surprises over the weekend with being awarded 2 different awards from 2 lovely blogs!

Firstly, the lovely Mother and Daughter team at Live, Learn, Laugh, Be Happy awarded me the Liebster Award - which I am very happy to accept! Thank you Ladies, I really appreciate the fact that you enjoy my blog as much as I enjoy yours!


The Liebster Award is awarded to 200 or less followers in the hope that it will bring new visitors and followers to their blog. If you are happy to accept the award the steps are:

Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them.

Post the award button on your blog.

Pass the award on to 5 bloggers who inspire you.

Leave a comment on those blogs to let them know.

I now pass this award on to 5 blogs that really inspire me and that I love to read! I hope they will accept the award and enjoy it!


Secondly, I had a lovely message from Susie at Little Susie Home Maker to say she had passed on the Versatile Blogger Award - thank you Susie, you are very kind and I really appreciate your visits and the lovely comments you leave for me. I really enjoy reading your blog too!


The rules for accepting the award are:

Add the award button to your blog.

Thank the blogger who awarded you.

Mention 7 random things about yourself (below).

List the rules.

Pass the award on to 15 amazing blogs.

Inform each of the 15 by leaving them a comment.


Well, here are 7 random facts about me:

1.) My real name means 'star' in French,

2.) I am the youngest of 4 children.

3.) My parents and siblings all have Brown eyes - I don't!

4.) My favourite flower is gypsophilia (or Baby's Breath).

5.) My favourite film as a teenager was 'Labyrinth'.

6.) I had 4 cats and 1 dog as a child, but don't have any pets as an adult.

7.) If I was an animal I would be a cat - lots of zzzzz's, but I wouldn't chase birds or mice ;).

I now pass the award on to 15 blogs that I really enjoy reading, who inspire me creatively and mentally and who have been supportive of my blog - thank you, I hope you will enjoy the award and know that it is awarded from the heart...


(Please note - I understand some blogs are non-award accepting blogs and I won't be offended if you do not wish to accept either award - that is totally fine, it is more about me showing appreciation for your fab blogs!)

There are so many more blogs that I read and admire, but I have tried to pass on the award to those who don't already have it (I hope). 

Have a lovely Monday all, I am off to leave 20 comments now!
