Blatant Self Promotion...You may want to look away

So, yeah... I'm going to self promote my other blog.  My followers section is just sad.  Yep.  No other word... I have like 4...LOL  And those 4 know that I think they are AWESOME, but I would love to have a little dialogue on my blog from time to time.
Ahem...here it goes...the awkward part... If you like crafts, especially hair accessories, I would love for you to check out my blog... It is new and a work in progress.  I'm not even certain what I want it to look like, so what I have will do for now.  I really appreciate any and all comments and advice from you guys who are veterans to the blog/craft/etsy/business world!  I'm a total newbie, but I'm loving it!!
So, here's my blog: The Kandy Shoppe (yes, because my name is Kandy and it's my Shoppe...yes, I'm aware of the fact that I'm goofy.  I just embrace my goofiness).
If you feel so inclined to visit and follow, I will love you with bloggie love.  I'm not even sure what bloggie love is, but I will love you with it, dang it! ;)




Thanks!

Makes me giggle that this book is specifically for Canadians"

WARNING:

This blog post contains venting...

I am, by far, no blogging expert.  Up to only a week or so ago, I had my faithful handful of followers who were a dazzling number total of 5.  But they are my followers and I love them very much and appreciate their loyalty to me.  It has only been recently that I discovered that I would even WANT to blog to a greater audience.  AND I discovered FOR THE LOVE OF BLOGS, which, I might add, is amazing!!  Check it out HERE ... After I became a member there (only about a week or so ago) I have slowly seen the number of my followers grow.  It was at FTLOB that I was introduced to the BLOG HOP, which brings me to my post today; BLOGGING ETIQUETTE.
I find it rude when people visit my page and comment on a post with a copied and pasted comment.  I KNOW they did not even BOTHER to GLANCE at my post, but yet they feel the need to comment and post their blog address so I will visit and/or follow their blog.  Am I the ONLY ONE who thinks this is rude?!!  Maybe it's just the southern gal in me, but if you visit my house, I want you to come in, prop your feet up, have a glass of ice tea and visit!  Don't barge in, tell me to visit you and leave!!  That's just bad manners, honey!  BLESS YOUR HEART!
So, I believe that there should be a BLOG HOP ETIQUETTE 101... with the first lesson being how to visit another blog and leave a comment!!  I'm not here to gain the most followers.  I'm here to share a little something, bring a smile and maybe a little information now and again and to make and enjoy some fellow blog friends.  Please MIND YOUR MANNERS when commenting on my blog! 

Much love,
