One World One Heart

From Nana...
I am so excited to be participating in One World One Heart! I am Nana and I'm new to blogging. My dear friend, Mimi, who is much more familiar with the blogosphere, is our tech support here for this project. Thank you, thank you, Mimi! I am having the most wonderful time.

My first give away is a set of four hand crocheted dishrags:


I make these dishrags all winter long. I call them my "crazy rags" because they are my therapy. When Christmas rolls around, I give them to all the women in the family. Everybody loves them. (Yes, I give them to the men too...if they promise to use them!) They really are the best dishrags in the world. Everybody needs to wash dishes and wipe down the counter tops, right?

I'd also like to share something else I make that are very useful. Beaded bookmarks:


I call these my "Page and Line Bookmarks." This unique little bookmark will not only mark your page, but also the exact line where you stopped reading! Just slide the clip onto the side of the page right on the line of text when you are done. There...your place is marked in style! I suggest using the short end of the clip for marking your place. That makes it easy to remember. I have three of these to give away to three lucky winners. Each bookmark is different.

I am looking forward to visiting your blogs in the days ahead. Will I get to all thousand plus? I hope so!

I’m delighted to be participating with Nana in the One World One Heart project. Our little blog is brand spanking new…just a week old, but we’re ready to say, “Hello world,” and open our doors to all.


Lisa at A Whimsical Bohemian is the creator and host of One World One Heart. She started this blogosphere event in 2007 as a way for creative bloggers around the world to meet and share their passions and artistic endeavors. Over a thousand bloggers from all avenues of the artistic realm have signed up to take the Magic Carpet excursion from one blog to another.  You can find the list of participants on her blog.

If you want to hop on the Magic carpet, just leave a comment, but you must be an active blogger to win. If you’re a winner, one of us, Nana or I, will leave a comment on your blog giving you the good news. We’ll be drawing numbers for winners after 5pm on February 15th and then scurry to the winners’ blogs to leave a message, so you can get back with us with your information.

I love pink roses…I mean I REALLY LOVE pink roses. I bought a fresh bouquet of charming polyantha roses in the sweetest pink color and I just had to photograph them. I’m sharing my love of photography and roses with the world…one winner will receive an 8x10 print of Roses for Elizabeth Barrett Browning and another, Art & Roses.

I’m looking forward to a whirlwind week of reading new blogs, meeting new friends, and exploring the blogosphere through One World One Heart.
