I'm testing the waters...It's been raining here all week so it seemed like a good time to try out something new. I found this new linky system and I'd like to try it out. Well, it's new to me. Perhaps you've seen it around before but I haven't and I'd like to give a whirl.
Would you mind testing it out with me? I know, there's supposed to be a blog party or a theme or some reason for a bunch of supremely lovely blogs to link up. But since we aren't having a party, I think we should just make a proclamation that we are a bunch of lovely bloggers! If you have a lovely blog, sign up below. And let's take a moment to visit each other too...
Here's the first collection of lovely blogs that began back in 2007:
Let's start a new Collection of Lovely Blogs
113 Blessings...:
Polly, this is a great way to test a new linky thingy. I am planning a wedding themed bloggy party soon, so I'd love to know how to do this linkup ~ I really like the pics with the name of the blog below!

Never mind! I figured out how to delete and start over. Fun!

Thanks for hosting this great idea. So easy to add my link and photo. I had wanted my blog name instead of my personal name. Is there anyway to delete and start over, or change it to my blog name. Thanks again, great blog.
I figured it out, just needed to look for the email. Thanks.
hi polly (love your name)!
thanks for hosting this, it's a great way to find new bloggers!!
looking forward to meeting you and seeing all your beautiful items at the Na-da farm event in may :)

Hi Polly-I just happened upon your blog the other day and added my blogs to your beautiful blogs list. I absolutely LOVE your blog, products and concepts. As someone who helps women with boutique SEO, this sort of idea is really beneficial to providing inlinks to their blogs. So it offers a hidden value as well. I featured your blog and this post on my blog today. Have a peek when you have a chance! http://designherbrands.blogspot.com/2011/06/who-has-beautiful-blog.html
~Melissa
Great idea. I am honored to be a part of such a beautiful group of bloggers. You have such a beautiful blog.

I'm with you, Jonell. I'd love to include my blog, www.janicefergusonsews.com, Modern Projects for Old Fashioned Nanas, but I can't figure it out either. Maybe I'm too old fashioned! Please help.
