You Make My Day
Barb of Pannifer's Food Blog and May December Home fame was kind enough to give my new photoblog Today I Am Mostly a 'You Make My Day' award.
I'm so enjoying doing TIAM - it's making me photograph more and observe more, which have to be good things - and I'm glad it's getting a little bit of a following.
I now have to nominate five other blogs which make my day, which is almost impossible because I get inspiration from so many (and because so many of my faves, - I'm looking at you Cally Creates, Little Doodles, Cruststation, Designer's Block and Hidden in France - have already received this award).
Here, though, are five blogs which are full of visual inspiration, which I thought was appropriate given that my award was for my photoblog.
- Sprink takes the most beautiful, contemplative shots of London and her perfectly decorated flat and I know that I will get my fix of London nostalgia whenever she pops up in my Google Reader.
- Casapinka I'm so glad she's recently started posting again after moving house. Lots and lots of house-doing-up inspiration.
- Abigail Percy. Jewellery maker and one of our favourite suppliers. I love her poetic photos of the jewellery-making process.
- Lola is Beauty - Fashion and France from another London blogger who helps me when I'm feeling homesick
- Making It Lovely. Nicole has amazing taste and gets things done with enviable speed. Her newly-decorated house is FAB-YOU-LOUS.
Editing to say that since Lola already has the award, I'm going to add Scrappy Girl - someone else who is doing wonderful things to her apartment - to the list.
Ladies, if you wish to play, the rules are as follow...
a) nominate five other blogs which 'Make Your Day' on your blog
b) acknowledge the post of the award giver
c) let the recipients know in their comments
Paola, thank you so much, that certainly did cheer me up! It's my second time so I've already given it to others (http://lolaisbeauty.blogspot.com/2008/01/you-make-my-day.html
I feel doubly blessed now! I've been enjoying your TIAM blog too...

Hot dayum! I thought I'd checked everyone's blog to see if they'd already got it...
