You all truly inspire me. You really do! Whether you paint, create, up cycle, teach mommy style, cook, organize, offer fashion & beauty tips or advice, or sew... whatever it is you do, you do it with style, and we want to see it! Link is up at the end of this post.

Rules, you know the deal... there are always a few rules, but we will try to keep them simple!

*Link up your awesomeness! Show us what you've been working on this week! Anything goes really (please no links to other giveaways, link parties or etsy shops).  Link directly to your post you'd like to share - not just your home page.  No limits, just keep it fresh and family friendly!

*I would love it if you FollowedTiaras and Bowties GFC or via FB but I am not requiring it!  I love making new friends, follow T&B because you want to not because you have to!  No pressure here!  Following does have it's advantages... you'd be one of the first to know about next weeks links and features and all the craftiness going on around here.   I don't always know where I'm headed but we should have some fun on the way!

*Link back to Tiaras and Bowties... a text link somewhere in your post is fine. I'd love for you to grab a button and place it somewhere within your post or sidebar (as soon as I get the code up, should be ready by next weeks party!)

* Please Please Please visit another link or two.  We all love to share and get feedback.  Most of us blog for comments, so make someone's day with a nice comment!  Heck!  You might just make a few wonderful friends along the way!

This Week we are adding to the preexisting party!

Come back next Wednesday to see what Awesomeness was featured!

Give Thanks

The Thanksgiving Holiday is almost here!  What are you most Thankful for?

It's all too easy to get caught up in the day to day hoopla and forget to give thanks for our many blessings.  I can attest to that.  Mundain chores and anxiety over long 'to do' lists take over and many of us perhaps dwell on what we do not have at the moment.  I am guilty.  I have pledged to myself to stop daily and give Thanks for the many blessings I do have!  Each day until Thanksgiving I will be posting on Facebook those blessings.  I'm inviting you to do the same.  Join me, why don't ya? 

Think Smink on Facebook with me here.

What's that?  You don't follow Tiaras and Bowties on facebook?

You didn't know we were on Facebook?

It's all good... just click on that little tree button in the sidebar and it will take you there!

or... you can just leave me a comment below to share your thanks too!

Seriously,  It's been a rough year for many of us and what better time to simply stop the worry if only for a few moments a day and think about the many blessings each of us has to give thanks for!  I am pledging to do this in the hopes that it becomes a long term habit!    I have been inspired to make a change within myself thanks to my dear friend Andie from Crayon Freckles.  She has a new Sweet November Series to initiate a spiritual, emotional, and mental make-over.  Stop over and visit her for more details!  Also, Jenni from Kissed by a Frog has started a frogalicious movement to a better self as well!  I'm joining the cause!  Won't you?
