I'm An Inspirational Blogger Award

Tuesday, November 1, 2011

I was awarded the "I'm An Inspirational Blogger Award" by three bloggers! Thank you Miss Laurie from Old-Fashioned Charm, Miss Dashwood from Yet Another Period Drama Blog, and Abby from Newly Impassioned Soul.

Rules

1. Be sure to post the award on your blog, for all of your readers to admire!

2. You will need to link back to the person who nominated you!

3. Make sure you tell your readers 7 random facts about yourself!

4. Also mention your favourite hobby, colour and food!

5. Pass this award on to your 10 inspirational bloggers! (You can choose the person to nominated you!)

Got #1 done, since you all are reading this post :-D

I'll redo #2. Thanks Miss Laurie, Miss Dashwood, and Abby! Be sure to visit their blogs!

#3. 7 Random facts about myself! (With pictures)

1. I enjoy Christmas at any time of the year. As a matter of fact, I really want it to be Christmas right now! I like the overall feel to Christmas: it's a joyous time in which we come together to celebrate the birth of Jesus, the Christ.

2. I'm planning on double majoring in Computer Science and Accounting. I really enjoy helping people out with the computer, and to me Accounting is like a big puzzle that I enjoy doing.

3. I love historical fashion (as if you all couldn't tell!). I like to study it in my free time. I've studied fashions from 1700 to 1900, though I'm becoming more and more interested in Edwardian fashions. My favorite fashion era has to be the Regency Era!

4. I started to play the piano in January of this year. I'm currently trying to learn an easy version of Moonlight Sonata, but I also try to go into my Jane Austen music book and try to play some of the songs in there.

Tatting

5. I enjoy puzzles. I really enjoy Sudoku puzzles, but I also like crossword puzzles. A couple times when I was sick, my parents would buy me a book of puzzles to help pass the time; it helped!

6. I taught myself how to sew, embroider, tat (a form of lace making; see picture to the right), cross-stitch, and some crocheting. For sewing, I watched my grandma sew one time when I was younger and I picked up on it quickly; so my mom bought me a kid's sewing craft book and I've been sewing ever since (though now I sew clothes and historical costumes instead of craft items). For embroidery, tatting, and crocheting, I just found books in Hobby Lobby or JoAnn Fabrics and taught myself through the books without observation.

7. When I do watch TV (which is getting less and less often now-a-days), I like to watch older shows. One of the shows I like to watch is Bonanza.

#4. Favorite Hobby, Color, and Food

Hobby - I have a number of hobbies, so I don't think I can pick just one. I'm just going to list my hobbies here:

* Computers

*Sewing

*Video Games

*Embroidery

*Tatting

*Blogging

*Historical Fashion

*Photoshop

*Reading ("I am not a great reader, and I have pleasure in many things." - Elizabeth Bennet)

Color - I really like Blue. It's a very mellow color and easy on the eyes. It's not wild, but mild.

Food - I really like half of the Bacon Turkey Bravo sandwich and a cup of French Onion soup from Panera! Mmmmmm!

Hey! Someone had the same idea as me!

One Lovely Blog Award and 300th Post!

Thursday, September 8, 2011

Another award! Thank you, Maria Elisabeth from Miss Georgiana Darcy for the award! So I'm supposed to tell you seven random facts about me and then award this to fifteen other blogs!

Edit 9/10/11: I also won this award from Katie from Legacy of a Writer. Thanks Katie!

7 Facts

I'm fairly good at math, but I wasn't always good at it.
I taught myself how to sew, embroider, tat, and crochet.
I have two dogs. They're Bedlington Terriers and they're actually distantly related. The older one is a male and his name is Ali (11 years old), and the younger one is a girl named Coco (soon to be 8). (If you want to see pictures of them, I made a post about winter wrap-around jackets that I made for them for the winter months. Click here to view them)
I like to sew historical costumes.
I do like to play video and computer games. One type of games that I like are historical city building games.
I'm very close with my mom.
The subject in school that I didn't like was science (natural science, not computer science :-D ).

Okay, I'm supposed to award 15, but I can only come up with 11.

And this is also my 300th post! Thank you everyone for reading and supporting Elegance of Fashion.

God Bless,
God Bless, Miss Elizabeth Bennet

I have won the Liebster Award!

Sweet! Another award! I should have posted this sooner: it got a little busy the last couple of week plus planning and hosting Period Drama Week. I've been awarded this award twice: from Charity U at Austenitis and from Abby from Newly Impassioned Soul.

1. Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to them.

Thanks Charity and Abby! Make sure you visit their blogs!

2. Give the Liebster Blog Award to five bloggers and comment on their blogs, letting them know they got it.

Okay, so as I am limited to only five, don't be offended if I don't include your blog. I'm just limited. And if I also noticed that you've already received the award, that could be a reason why I didn't include you.
