Sunshine Award

A couple of days ago, I received one of these

from Sandra @ Sawdust & Paper Scraps.  You might recognize her work.  It's a closet!!

I was tickled pink when I found out she'd given me this award.  I haven't been blogging very long and only recently began blogging on a regular basis so it was a real treat for me to be recognized for my work.

Now it's my turn to pass this award along to 7 people to inspire me and brighten my day.  I chose:

1- Amy & Jeni @ Peppertowne.

Check out this makeover Jeni did on what were two sad little chairs.

And this fab laundry sign from Amy.  I've got this one in my project queue. 

2- Sara @ Sara's Art House

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Sara's house!  There were so many images to choose from, I could do a whole post on her.  She is amazing!!  Here's a peek.

 3- Jennifer @ She Endeavors

She made this beautiful kitchen island from an old, raggedy record cabinet!

4- Jen @ Just for Rachel

I love this dining room wall!

And then there is this bench she made from a headboard and some wood! 

5- Tracey @ My House of Giggles

Loving this great half-table makeover she did!

6- Rebekah @ Potholes and Pantyhose

Rebeka's a funny gal.  Check out some of her posts and you'll be chuckling to yourself the whole time.  I think this mirror she made recently is just too cool!

7- Jan @ The Simpler Life

I just found Jan the other day and I love her stuff.  Check out this monogrammed plate.  It's made from a silver platter.

And these canisters she made over...  love 'em!!

  


So that's 7.  If you've been awarded, please spread the love.  Link back to me as the the one who awarded you and then choose 7 fave peeps of your own.
