Drumroll, please...

Oh! Hello there! You still here? Glad to see it. And thrilled to be back spending some time in this little space! Seems this tiny beast has been slumbering like a family of bears throughout the winter. But, seeing as how we have just been bestowed a Liebster Award, I thought it was time to end this long winter's nap.

Come again? An award? For Bee? Well, that's just wonderful! The sweet and lovely Annabelle, from the sweet and stitchy Three Red Apples, has bestowed this most honorable of honors upon me. And for that, I am most gratefully humbled. And perhaps blushing, just a bit ;)

"Well, Yay!" you must be thinking. "But what exactly is a Liebster?" I'll tell you. It's an award given to crafty folk with a blog that has less than 300 followers. Criteria I'm happy to fit! The purpose is to help spread the word, get these crafty folk seen and heard. Many of the crafty Liebsters also have little shops, making the whole "seen and heard" thing rock just a little bit more!

So now comes the part where I get to pass the baton, introduce you to a few more creatives that you may not know. Dear readers, it is my pleasure to introduce you, in no particular order, to:

The dear Kim, from Red Rope Farm. When she's not busy chasing her children, birthing lambs, and spinning her own wool, she's busy creating crafty things and sharing the goings on that come with life on a farm. Oh- and her chickens lay delicious eggs!

Sweet Courtney, who once had a blog called Green and Pretty, that once featured a very new Bee Vintage Redux, for which I am still grateful. She's now over at Forest Heart, which you should check out along with both of her Etsy shops!

The amazingly talented Sofia, and her lovely blog, etre-soi. I don't really know Sofia, but I have long admired her beautiful work, and enjoy her blog and snapshots of life in France. Le sigh...

Now, go grab you family, your friends, and maybe a few total strangers, and spend some time getting to know these talented ladies. A big hug and a rip-roaring thank you to Annabelle for allowing me this honor. Go check out all the loveliness she has on offer, too! And a big yay to us all!
