With 2011 coming to an end I decided to pay some tribute to my blog crushes of 2011. Some of them will be very familiar to you. Some of them will be new finds. They are all top notch in my book and I visit them regularly. And if they have a Facebook presence, I will follow them there too!
…..In Random Order…..
::::::Two Shades of Pink::::::
::::::Lolly Jane::::::
::::::The Tomkat Studio::::::
::::::Tatertots and Jello::::::
I just want to interject here and tell you a little bit about my experiences with Jen from Tatertots and Jello. I’m sure you are all familiar with her and her amazing blog. Yes? Okay. Her blog is hugely popular, she has an incredible following and yet she still takes the time to comment on blogs. My blog. That alone blows me away because I don’t have anywhere near her following and I struggle to leave comments. Then, THEN she said “yes” when I asked her to guest post during my Creating Christmas event. You definitely want to hang around her blog. 🙂
::::::The 36th Avenue::::::
::::::Confessions of a Cookbook Queen::::::
{Just found this one today and this chick is funny!}
::::::Fingerprints on the Fridge::::::
{Okay, this last one is NOT a blog but I’m incredibly in love with this site}
I’m looking forward to discovering some new crushes in 2012. 🙂
XOXO

Umm…. I think I just about passed out reading this, Diana!
I feel ridiculously “unworthy” to be included in that list, and I seriously have no words to tell you how exciting that is for me.
It’s funny – because what you said about Jen/TT&J is EXACTLY the way I feel about you!
You have been SO kind and encouraging to me over the last year since I began this blogging adventure, and it has meant more to me than you know!
THANK YOU for this special gift today!
Prayers for a HAPPY 2012 in your home!

Thanks for sharing these with us! I visited each one and love them all. So many great ideas. I’m definitely following some new ones now and I’m glad you decided to share these. Blogland is so huge and it’s hard to find people among this sea of crafts so getting recommendations helps.
