Well, what a bunch of suck-ups. Everybody said YOUR blog is their favorite, and mow I’m afraid to say otherwise for fear of sounding like a jerk. I love your blog, that goes without saying, but another blog that I check just as often as yours is called Curbly. Weird name, but it has some great DIY projects, lots of decorating inspiration and an occasional recipe. Check it out! And thank you so much for the giveaway. Had you asked, “What is your favorite blog where you have amazingly good chances to win awesome things?” there would be no question- yours would win, hands down.

Yours of course. Also my niece has maintained a blog for four years documenting their journey to become a family via adopting a child from Ethiopia. Now it’s to share the news and pictures of their family which also now includes a little sister named Leni. They live in upstate NY with most of the family located in MN so it’s a nice way to keep up with things.

I love Think Crafts and Not Martha and Spotted Canary . . . I read Mental Floss and Neatorama every day . . . Graphics Fairy and Mod Podge Rocks are great, too. To choose a favorite would be like trying to choose a favorite child or the best flower or a tune for the ages. IMPOSSIBLE!

Your blog has a coveted spot at the top of my mile-long list of crafting bookmarks. I like your variety. I must admit, I have fallen in love with blogs in the past only to tire of them after a few months. The ideas usually run in the same vein day after day, or they’re way beyond my means, or ability level. If I had to choose a number two, I currently am a huge fan of Mary Corbett’s Needle and Thread. She’s a pro at embroidery, and offers a huge variety of projects and reliable information.
