Being Thankful For Masterpieces::

  
                                I have made a discovery
                     what I Love belongs to me.
                Not the chairs and tables in my  house,
              but the masterpieces of the world.

                         ~ Elizabeth Asquith Bibesco


    I'm grateful for so many masterpieces. Family, Friends and You. Here's hoping you and yours have the best Thanksgiving.
    In your heart and in your home.

            
                           

                                                    Enjoy  ;)

Here Comes The Bride......
My Grandmother's Earrings, Something Old!
 My Something Borrowed, White Gloves
The Vintage hat inspired me to do a post on Weddings.
Good luck to any new Brides out there or newly engaged Brides to be.
I'm linking with Faded Charm for White Wednesday.
I hope to see you there...
Yeah, inspiration came a knocking. Ha, Ha, Ha.
Have a great mid week everyone.

The Real Truth About Blogging::

             Hi,
            Do you have some time?
                I just wanted to take a moment and get some things off my chest about blogging and my Blog.
                For those Friends who are new Welcome! It is a rare moment here on LizlovesVintage that you will ever hear my opinion about anything other than Vintage. I really want all my followers to be happy with their experiences here. I want to be clear about my blogging world that needs some explanation. Ready?
               I started my Blog for several reasons. I really loved blog hopping and seeing such creativity on the web. This sparked an interest and I began to think of creating my own. Also, after a long day at work it became a stress reliever. Yeah, yoga is good. Believe me I tried! Blogging stuck... and it is free.
              Way back when, before I started blogging. I spoke to Jo Pack ham about a plan. I told her first that I wanted to start a Blog. Her words were brief. "Liz it will be a FT. job she said."
She was so very right. Here I am a year later... 
               I'm not afraid of work. Especially, when it's fun. But, work comes with disappointment also. Days when you have nothing to Blog about. Days when you have had a bad day. So, on and so forth.... So, that's why my Blog is about many things but, mostly of a Vintage theme. I try to mix it up alittle when I can. Or, when inspiration comes a knocking.
              Do you follow my Blog? Do you leave a comment every time you stop in? Thank You from the bottom of my heart. But, if you don't that's OK too. I understand. Life goes on. I can't tell you how many times I check my personal faves and don't leave a comment for some reason or another. I try..... but, sooner or later. I will :)
             With commenting there is feedback and Questions. My followers take time to leave comments. Do I respond to them? I read every comment. On occasions I do my best reply to all questions. If I haven't I am truly sorry. I do my best to respond to all. Thanks for leaving me a comment. I love what you have to say! I Do!
            Giveaways, Giveaways are fun for everyone! Yet, I will never ask anyone to follow me here on LizlovesVintage as part of a Giveaway. This doesn't appeal to me. I want my Followers to like me for who I am and what I'm about. Not part of a Giveaway to get Followers. Nor, Follow me and I'll Follow You.. Sorry, that's not my style.
          Blogging has etiquette. With etiquette their is rules. Rules about leaving nice comments to fellow bloggers are a MUST. Be respectful always :)
          Family is private to me. Photos of Family can be copied without permission. It's the web. So, I will never post any pics here about my Family. Nor, is it OK to take my photos without permission and post them on any site! Please ask me for permission first. It's just a formality. Thanks :)
         Well I've said enough for one day. This is a LONG post. Sorry, if I offended anyone. Blogging is a fun hobby. I have met so many people from all over the states and abroad. Thanks for stopping by. I hope this is my last long post for a long time. Peace, Love, Vintage.
                                                              
                                                                Sincerely,
                                                                     Liz
