A lovely surprise which has made my day! Sharon J from Finding simplicity has passed this onto me among others, I really don't think I deserve it as I haven't been blogging for long but I'm very grateful. I should pass this straight back to you Sharon as your blog has inspired me the most but I know that is not the point of the exercise so anyway I now have to pass it along to 7 other bloggers who have inspired me so here we go:-
1) Making Good Use is where Elizabeth has inspired and encouraged me to not only make more of what I have about the house but also what I find at the charity shops and car boot sales. I love the way Elizabeth writes and she is a very talented sewer and knitter (I won one of her lovely dishcloths) she also encouraged me to start blogging.
2) Home Matters Most - Jennifer's blog is about how she and her husband and daughter are livng a greener and more organic life and also about their superb square foot gardening. Jennifer inspires me to become more organised.
3) Down to Earth - where Rhonda Jean and Hanno share their simple living knowledge with so many of us who are now totally addicted to seeing how their garden is getting on and to check in on those lovely airedales and chooks.
4) Move to Portugal - a very organised look at paying down the mortgage in order to, as the blog says, move to portugal and a new life. I love the way she sets out the finances - puts me to shame! I will do better though one day!
5) Urbania to Stoneheads - Kethry from mse old style shares her life and some very good recipes
6) Nostalgia at the Stone House - this is just such a lovely blog to look at, with lots of pretty things!
7) Vintage Pleasure - This lovely blog has inspired me to become a bit of a collector or at least to see that I can furnish the house on a budget from charity shops and car boot sales in an eclectic way and still be stylish. I now love to collect the old johnson bros dawn dinner service in all 4 colours.
To be honest there are so many more blogs out there that I love it was hard to stop at 7 :)

Thank you! I initially started thrifting due to necessity and actually made quite a bit of money selling on.Now I do it because I love the style it gives my home.Sometimes I think I am a little addicted though!
