It's become a habit for me to miss my blog anniversary; it's been going for 3 years this month (and remembering on the last day of the month isn't too bad, actually). So to celebrate, how about a giveaway? How about one of my new ceramic transfer brooches, so new they're not even in my shop yet?
If you'd like this little brooch, leave me a comment with a link to your favourite recipe, knitting pattern, sewing tutorial, gardening advice - you get the idea. Links are what blogging's all about, so spoil me! I'll pick a winner randomly from a hat on the 7th of August.
See how versatile the colour scheme is! You can wear it with anything.
Happy blogiversary!
ReplyDeleteThis paper lamp shade is one I've been wanting to try for quite some time. I happen to find this tutorial just recently: http://tinyurl.com/nbkj2a

ReplyDelete*veriword is 'trucker'. Not sure it means anything special, but it's fun when it's actually a real word.
Happy Blogversary!
ReplyDeleteAt this point I have no links to leave you but wanted to wish you the best nevertheless. Please continue, I love reading it!
Well happy birthday to you Jezzeblog, after trawling through my obscene amount of bookmarks I thought you might like this one http://www.briarpress.org/museum/browse It's a bit like trainspotting for printmakers...
ReplyDeleteOooh boy, I hope I'm the lucky guy! I'm an avid knitter of vintage stuff, so here's some links to the surprisingly easy stuff I've found:

It's hard to just come up with one link--so here's just one favorite
ReplyDeletehttp://www.supportlibrary.com/nl/users/susandemo/mweb/path1-15.html
Love to read the books along with eating her favorites. Cute cute pins, I want to try it out!
I'm obsessed with this pattern ... http://ninjaknit.googlepages.com/home but haven't got a clear vision for colour yet or how it will fit me... and winter is nearly over.
ReplyDeleteSorry I keep missing all the knitting gatherings, I will keep trying. I love your brooch and your blog.

Happy Blog Birthday, Jezze! My link unfortunately is not to a handcraft or recipe, but to this really interesting article in the Washington post which kind of gives food for thought! It is how a great violinist (Joshua Bell) performed incognito at the station in Washington, and was basically ignored by commuters.

yay!
ReplyDeletehappy birthday blog!

Happy Birthday to your blog! There are many of us who are soooo happy that you started blogging 3 years ago and have kept at it! What a great idea to ask for links.
ReplyDeleteHere is one I have been meaning to try for a while: Leaf Printing:

Wat 'n mooi gedagte om iets weg te gee wanneer jou blog verjaar! Baie geluk!
ReplyDeleteEk gee graag die link : http://autoscopia.com/amelia/archives/2005/07/claude.html
Dit is 'n gusteling lente trui vir my met sy vloeiende vry lyne.
At the moment I'm really enjoying Simon Armstrong's blog from the Design Museum in London. Always a good read.

Happy Blogbirthday!
ReplyDeleteI've been lurking here for a good few months, so I suppose this is the best time to show my face and say hello. And thanks for all the beautiful work you've shared over the years.
I've been a big fan ever since I first saw your drawings in Bitterkomix.
I've been obsessed with crochet and granny square blankets over the last few weeks, I've never done either before in my life, but between the YouTube tutorials (is there anything you can't find on YouTube?) and this page (http://attic24.typepad.com/weblog/summer-garden-granny-square.html)
I'm getting there.
Congrats on the 3 years!
ReplyDeleteMyself & a friend have just recently started a blog & I'm LOVING IT!! ("ladies peculiar" if you're interested)
Anyway, I recently came across THE most fabulous gardening book known to man (or woman), usually I find gardening books boring & long-winded but this one is fab and very well-written. So I dont really know if this counts but this is the site http://www.janesdeliciousgarden.com/ and even if you don't have green fingers (I dont) this book can remedy that. (PS if you go to Readers Warehouse you can get it for a steal!!)
Thanks for the great blog!!
Kes, I bought that book about 2 weeks ago! It's really inspiring and already useful (didn't know seedlings should be put outside for a bit before transplanting....)
