I'm so excited (and I just can't hide it!)

Looks like the hours I spend on my blog just might be paying off!  I never intended or planned for this to be a full time job or to make money from it or anything.  I just really enjoy crafting, sharing, inspiring and writing.  And I really like learning about computer design, html and css.  As my blog has grown, I’ve been driven to continue to make it better and I can't tell you how tickled I get to see new comments, increased traffic and my crafts pinned by you guys.  Looks like you all really like Abernathy Crafts and that is why I blog.  Anyhow, I've recently been contacted by Zina from Let’s Lasso the Moon and she’s invited me to contribute to her Pinterest board for crafts and asked me to be a guest poster on her blog!  How fun!  I’ve never been a guest blogger, though I’ve collaborated with a friend who runs Popsicles and Pearls.  I’ve accepted her offer and I’m waiting to hear about the details.  So, stick around to see how that pans out.

Also, Jen from I Heart Organizing is looking for contributors for her blog for the summer.  It was an “open audition”, so to speak, and today is supposed to be the day she announces the chosen bloggers.  If you haven’t been to her blog before, you’re really missing out!  She is absolutely amazing and has quite a following.  Being a contributor to her blog would be the greatest honor for a somewhat new blogger like me.  So, could you be so sweet to cross your fingers for me?  Pleeease?  I’m on pins and needles waiting to hear the outcome.  In the meantime, check out both Let’s Lasso the Moon and I Heart Organizing and tell me what you think!

And thank you all for reading and pinning, commenting and sharing.  I'm so grateful that you enjoy what I do!
