The time has come. It has been exactly one year since I started this lil ol' blog of mine.
I look back at my first post (well, first few as well) and think WOW. This blog has come a long way. I started it as something to do at work during the summer when business was slow. I didn't really expect anything to come of it and I really didn't think I'd STILL be blogging a year later.
It has become something much more than a way to fill empty time. In fact I rarely even find time to blog nowadays because life is so hectic, but I make time for it. I look forward every day to reading my blogroll and sharing something I find to be spectacular with you guys.
Just a few days ago I hit 300 followers. To some, that may not seem like a big deal, but to me it is. I try not to look at the numbers, but when I think back to a year ago, and how long it took me to get ONE follower...and then how excited I was to have ten... and then 100, and now 300 of you actually care to hear what I have to say and do.
I am so thankful for each and every one of you. Your comments make my day. You motivate me to create, dream, and inspire.
I love you all!
To say thank YOU I am hosting my very first giveaway!

A delicate turquoise sideways cross necklace made with love by yours truly.
