February sure went fast didn't it? March snuck up on me, and I'm getting to this a little late. My Featured Site Award for March is French Garden House. Lidy's site has some of the most beautiful and unique items! Everything from antiques, exquisite florals, vintage books, shabby chic items, elegant lighting, jewelry, and more. I've been lucky enough to purchase some of the beautiful items available on the French Garden House site!
The design for the French Garden House has changed a bit since I first designed it for Lidy. She likes to change things up for the different seasons, and the opening page now has the beautiful garden photo again. It's the perfect addition to the site, and very representative of what is available at the French Garden House. Go check out the site, and I'm sure you'll find something there that you can't live without!

On another note, I just got tagged by Jennifer at The Old Painted Cottage! Now I'm supposed to share 7 facts about myself, some weird, some random. So here we go....
1. I worked as a hairstylist for a few years. I liked it, but I didn't love it....which explains why I'm not doing it anymore.
2. I love Converse shoes! My black Chucks are some of my favorite shoes to wear!
3. I don't watch a lot of TV, but I NEVER miss Lost or The Deadliest Catch (it's about crab fishermen). Lost is my favorite show ever, but I can't get enough of those crab boats! My favorite is the Cornelia Marie.
4. I haven't worn my natural hair color since I was 17. I've been blonde, red, and brown.
5. I'm a crocheting whiz. I can crochet just about anything, and I've done a lot of freeform crochet. I don't do much anymore though, due to time constraints.
6. My dream vacation is to go to Ireland.
7. I rarely cook. It's not that I can't, it's that my wonderful husband (of almost 10 years!) is a genius in the kitchen, and he loves cooking.
Here’s the rules: 1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog. 2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird. 3.

Good morning, Cathy -
Yes, Lidy's site is gorgeous. I love visiting her store any chance I get and it helps she's such a sweet person too.
Okay, how am I going to find anything weird about myself? -Piece of cake!
Happy day!

Cathy,
From my early days on ebay, you have designed so many beautiful things for me (store front, templates etc.) So beautiful, that I still kind of "miss" them!
I am so thankful that you chose my website as your featured site for the month. But I am the first to tell everyone and anyone who compliments the website that those compliments belong to YOU!
Easy to work with, the patience of an Angel, Creative, Talented, and more than that, you are just a joy to know. Thank you, friend!
