**** TEAM ADVENT CALENDAR 2012 ****

[#1]

Lets have some advent fun again !!

Here's how it will work -

Every day I will announce the 'Shop of The Day' & we can all post our favourite items from their shop :)

Then the next day there will be another shop & so on...

We will do this to help recognise all the lovely people we have within our team that go out of their way to give something back :)
Whether its their time, considerations, smiles, kindness - whatever - we want to celebrate it !

You can help & join in by -

1) Post your most favourite item from their shop here !

2) Heart it !

3) Tweet it !

4) Post it to Facebook !

5) Pin it !

6) Any other way to celebrate our lovely shops !!

Let us know how you are promoting & sharing - we all want to see the love <3

Thanks to all joining in x

************ SHOP OF THE DAY 10th DECEMBER **************

Today's shop is Sandra from http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeOdd

Sandra is another team member that makes the team what it is. I cant think of anyone that makes me giggle more in the threads.

So today lets get back on track & celebrate Sandra :)

Quickly popping in here before I start for the day. Sorry to be a bit behind again!

I love most of Louise's work but I think this may be going on my Christmas list

And as I am an honorary Welshwoman, I adore love spoons. This teeny one with a snippet of Welsh blanket is perfect!

My other favourite colour, chartreuse...love this pillow!

Sandra is a dear. Love her whacky humour :)

As pink is my fave colour - it has to be this knitted heart pillow (will add to my 'I Believe in Pink' Pinterest board).

Oh no! I am gutted!!!!! I only just stumbled across this thread by accident!!!!! No wonder I have so many hearts today!!!! I have had such a traumatic weekend family wise that I have been in hiding today trying to catch up with my contracts because with what is going on at home I am way behind with my work and correspondence! I need to come back later and read what it is all about!!!!!!!!!

OK I"m a few days behind so I"m going to catch up with one item from each shop if that's OK?

From Anac - this is just beautiful and I love it:

From Loutul - I really like the simplicity of this design. I can see that it probably took hours to perfect. These look so elegant and are fabulous.

From BeOdd I love that this card is so unique and different from what you normally find. Using lots of different media and finding uses for objects you wouldn't necessarily associate with a gift card. Fab!
