Stylish Blogger Award
I love Sundays. It means I have a chance to catch up on things. Like Blog Posts and Gardening. I received a Hoya Plant from a dear friend for my birthday last year and it has just come into flower - how pretty are these flowers ?
I was very honoured to recieve a blog award from Bri over at the perfectly gorgeous Petaliferous Blog - Thank you so much Bri you lovely thing ! I should mention that Bri has two lovely etsy stores - Petaliferous for unique handcrafted jewellery, a little bit whimsical, a little bit fun, a little bit different and all handmade by Bri and Willow & Elm - for Handmade Baby Toys, Nursery Art & Decor!

The rules for accepting this award are to:
