Fresh new start

Phew!  That was a long and wonderful holiday weekend!  Family, far too much food, football...I'm ready for a fresh new week.

Part of our Thanksgiving was spent at my Aunt and Uncle's "farm".  Nothing's better after an enormous meal than wondering the fields, petting the horses and collecting fresh eggs.  We just have so much to be thankful for.

So back to the kreativ blogger nods...Here are my seven:

1.  My first nomination is my fantastic friend Rachel at Rachie's Place.  Rachel was my inspiration for starting a blog and she's one of my biggest supporters.  Her blog is filled with amazing ideas, incredible photos, and honesty.  It is one of my daily must-reads. 

2.  I've always known that my girlfriend Heidi was a genius.  She is beyond witty, incredibly well-read, and always has a snarky comment to share.  She finally put it out there for everyone with Kitschen Feast.  You must check it out for the clever writing, and great vintage finds and recipes.

3.  Jen Loves Kev was such a happy discovery.  A couple of creatives and seriously snazzy dressers.  Jen is a teacher that shares her garb, her home, her meals, and her crafts with the world.  I love this one.

4.  On a list of my most inspiring vintage girls, Jill from Lune Vintage would have to be right up there with the tops.  She has so many fresh ideas, she makes the most amazing screen-printed slips, her personal style is fabulous, and she and her partner opened up a studio that makes me want to go straight to Canada. 

5.  Not to be too obvious, but what would a list of creative blogs be without Freckled Nest?  Leigh-Ann is the most positive, original spirit and incredible artist.  Any time I need a jolt of inspiration, I know I can find it on Freckled Nest. She is also amazingly supportive of new bloggers and indie business owners.  

6.  I am absolutely crazy about Elsita from The Hidden Seed.  What an artist!  What a sartorialist!  What a beauty!  It is all about "self expression through style" and it is wonderful.

7.  I love, love, love Bleubird Vintage.  What can I say?  James makes me weak in the knees with her incredible eye, her bold personal style, her music preferences...throw on a good record and tap on over to her blog. 

This has been a long (and long overdue) post!  It has worn me out.  Expect some good stuff this week and check back in tomorrow for a Monday Makeover (thrifted vintage given a new life). 

Happy Sunday!
