blogger award for me?

Well lucky me, two wonderful people blessed me with the stylish blogger award! Thank you to Marebear and Crystal. Two very lovely and talented ladies!
I now know I am loved by some blogger friends :) Thank you ladies so much for choosing me as a stylish blogger!!
The fun in receiving the award is I get to share, share and share! Here are the requirements...

1. Thank the person/persons that shared this award with me and link it back to their blog/blogs.

2. Share eight things about myself.

3. Pass this award on to eight other bloggers that I have recently discovered.

4. Leave a comment so that they can pass along the recognition!


Well, here I go...
Thank you Crystal and Mary! Oh, I already did that, I think I even left comments on their blogs with my gratitude...
Eight things about me, hummmm...
Okay, 1. I chose my blogger name, Chignon, because it is a fancy way of saying hair bun. It's pronounced Shin-Yon
2. I am a Media Specialist (teacher-librarian) by day (hence the hair bun idea) and a super crafter at night. Okay, I like to think I'm super...at least my family thinks I'm super, and I think my SIL thinks I super, I think.
3. I love to read, but you may have guessed that from my profession. Many nights it's a tug-of-war on what to do, read or craft.
4. I am only 29 years old, and will always be 29 years old, even though my oldest child is 20, middle is 18, and youngest is 16.
5. I am not a grandma - remember I am only 29! I do have three terrific children and a hubby who tolerates my hobby.
6. I grew my hair out long so I can wear the traditional librarian bun, I even have some old cardigan sweaters I can throw around my shoulders...but you likely won't see me in that! Unless I'm really cold in my craft room.
7. Laughter is great for the soul, that's why I married a funny man. I also like words used in funny ways, you know puns, play on words, etc. Well I am a librarian after all!
8. I used to call my crafting space the dungeon, because it is located in the basement as part of the utility room. But over the holidays I switched places and sent DH to the dungeon with his desk and I have a bigger spot to play. And I have room for a friend to join me - want to come over and chirp with the Cricut?

Now choosing eight bloggers to share the award...drum roll....
