Although I'm not exactly sure where the Kreativ Blogger award originated (my sincere apologies to whoever thought this one up), thank you to Green Bee for choosing me as a recipient! The rules are simple. No truth or dare. No do or die. Just name six things that you love, and pass it on to six others. Easy enough. I think I can do that. And a nice way to pay it forward. My six things today:
I'm continually inspired by Mimi Kirchner's work, but especially crushing over these little numbers.
- autumn girl with cashmere hair
- girl with skinned knees (I see myself at ten)
- tattoo men--brilliant use of toile!
4. Japanese cuteness of a different kind : kitty in a box.
5. More of the usual kind: hedgehogs (thank you Mrs. Pilkington!)
6. Very excited about more green choices for the home, especially the tankless water heater. More here. I have so many questions about these. Anyone have one?
Next...calling on six inspiring blogs to share the love:
- happy zombie (good clean zombie fun)
- bitter betty (always delightful craft)
- apron thrift girl (she's having a give-away!)
- fresh vintage (ideas galore from vintage finds)
- domesticali (fresh daily musings)
- little cotton rabbits (knit & a darling calender)
And, thank you Crafty Crow for sharing my acorn cookie recipe, several peeps have emailed to say that they liked them! And yes, the recipe is correct, no eggs, no oil.
*Cute images from TARTAN (site no longer active).
What's inspiring you today?
I am so inspired by the thought of the Christmas season and my December Day-by-Day scrap album ready to have a photo added each day with a bit of journaling.

I laughed so hard at the kitty in a box!!! Don't you just love a cat's curiosity!! I Love it! :-) Oh, and the doll with the cashmier hair ... how lovely. I remember a summer when I was eleven and I had two skinned knees, like the other doll, how cute.

Got sent over here by my daughter, katydiddys.blogspot.com to see your banner with deer. I have a big old buck on my banner and loved seeing your two beauties. The entire blog is warm and friendly, and generous. Your patterns, recipes and stories are a treasure. So nice to meet you.
