I Have always loved the "Smiley Face" since it was created in 1964 by Harvey Ball... He created this to promote Friendship, Peace and Happiness... In 1970 I ordered a roll of 10,000. Smiley stickers for my Business and with each invoice I send out I would put a Smiley sticker on it and and under neath would sign it "Hugs and Smiles," Gloria this was my way of passing on the Friendship, Peace and Happiness to my customers... Now I would love to pass this Friendship award to all my great friends I have made in blogland so we can keep this sign going.. We all can use Friendship, Peace and Happiness in our lives...now you also know why I sign everything "Hugs and Smiles" Please take this and pass it on to someone who also need a Smile in their lives...
Hope all of you have a great day and remember to smile...
Hugs and smiles Gloria

Gloria this is so nice of you! I'll pick this up and pass it along for sure! Wonderful post, as always!
how cool! you would like my friend's bathroom...she is such a smiley face freak that she did an entire room with them! she also had her car painted and wears them all over...
she also has a rubber ducky thing..that we will not discuss.
again..thanks...I am not feeling good and this made me smile...
Thanks!! I'll take it and put it on my sidebar. What a great reminder of the 1970s. We have some old plastic glasses with the smiley face on them - I would have thrown them away a long time ago, but my kids always pick them out to use when they are home. Reminds them of their childhood. After I'm gone, I can see them fighting over them instead of some great dishes (like the Pickard punch bowl)!!! Take care, Sally
I don't have a blog but I'm taking Smiley with me too. Thanks.
What a sweet thing to do QG! I love your award! I remember when "smiley faces" became so popular. I had a long necklace and the whole thing was gold itty bitty smiley faces. I wore it with a body suit (member those), a mini skirt and Go-Go boots! Man I thought I was styling! LOL :-)
L~
Thank-you my good friend! It's mine!! lol I love the smiley face!!
Hugs, Terrie

Hi Gloria! I'm smiling!☺ Thank you very much! Deb
Happy, what sweet memories I have of those original smiley faces. I'm sooooo glad to see they are back. When I was about in 9th grade, we sold magazines for prizes. Mine was a big chalkware smiley face that hung on my bedroom wall for years. I wonder where that thing is now??? That's the bad thing about reminiscing, I start to want to find all my old stuff! Ha.
What a wonderful idea.. I did not know the history behind the smiley face..so I got a history lesson, a hug and a smile...thanks from my heart..hugs ~lynne~
Gloria~ everytime I come here I smile. This is a darling award and will wear it on my blog proudly! Thank you so much for your sweet comments on my new headboard...I am really so happy with it.
