I am always extremely flattered when a fellow blogger takes the time out of their day to nominate my humble little blog for an award. It means a lot to know that others enjoy what I am doing, and helps me to keep going. I would like to personally thank Kim from http://craftcreateconnect.com/ for nominating “On The Upcycle” for a Sunshine blogger award. According to Google consensus, this award is given to those bloggers who positively and creatively inspire others. It is also a great way for bloggers to get to know one another. Please be sure and visit Kim’s blog and say “hello”! She has a site you can get lost on, so many amazing ideas!
Rules For this Award are:
1. Share 11 facts about yourself.
2. Answer the 11 questions that were asked by the blogger who nominated you.
3. Include 11 questions for your nominees to answer.
4. Notify your nominees about this post.

The hardest part comes next, I must choose only 11 bogs. This is the most difficult, because so many of you touch me in so many ways and I wish I could nominate everyone. Please also know that if you decide not to forward the Sunshine award on that is OK too. I am simply glad I am able to visit each and every one of you and thanks for sharing a bit of who you are with the world.
