SHE Team Celebrates the Holidays Giveaway - Final Two Days

Well, this is it. The final weekend of the holiday giveaway. I hope you have gotten a chance to see all the great items that the SHE Etsy Team creates. There is some wonderful talent all year long with this team. The final drawing is up until Sunday 11:00 p.m. (PST).

Here are the new items.

Larie's Creations


"Each of us a snow flake, no two of us the same.
Reflections of the Everlasting Source from which we came. "

Ocean Breeze (mompotter)


These would be great for your small Christmas dinner party. Your guests each have a different charm to mark their glass. These are made with glass beads and wonderful Christmas charms that will last for years to come.

Just slip them around the stem of your wine glass and your guest can keep track of their own.

Rachel's Aprons


Eco-Friendly and beautiful? Yes you can have it all!
100% Cotton Wash/Dish cloths are super absorbent, sturdy for tough counter and dish stains, wash well, and they last so much longer than the green and yellow ones you end up throwing out later. As a washcloth these are so soft! It will be your favorite wash cloth to use.
The cloths wash well and are 100% cotton. They make great additions to bridal shower presents, holiday gifts, or housewarming presents (or keep for yourself!) They are approximately 8 inches (20cm) x 8 inches (20cm).

Klow

Personalized Stamped Ceramic Ornament



This fun little ornament is hand-stamped and colored to fit your wishes. The snowman image is carefully stamped on the tile, colored whichever colors you would like, and personalized with a date, last name, first name, or anything in between.

The ornament is ready for hanging with a black, satin ribbon attached to a metal loop. The finishing step in preparing the ornament is a clear-coat sealant that will protect the image for years to come.

If you should win the giveaway please leave me the colors and wording you want in the message to seller. If no colors or wording are selected, then you will receive an ornament like the one in the main image.

This custom item will take a couple days production before I will be able to ship it.


Elemental Handcrafts

Personalized Childrens Natural Wooden Branch Necklace

As sweet as can be, these gender neutral necklaces are one-of-a-kind and personalized with your child's name. Made from a fallen branch, each pendant is approximately 2.25 in diameter and a half inch thick. The dainty holes in the top hold the ribbon or twine, tied big enough to fit over the head. The fronts have been sanded smooth and the entire piece waxed with a natural, non-toxic finish.

When not being worn, they are an attractive name plate for a bedroom door or wall.

Here are the new items.


Minnie Maes

This tiny tote is just what you need to make small gifts look super special! This bag is red with decorated Christmas trees in a sturdy cotton. Inside lining will be also in the red Christmas tree pattern. Gift bag measures 6" in length, 3-1/4" in width, and 4-3/4" high (not including handles).

Spice of Life Designs


A boysenberry is a cross between a blackberry and a raspberry and has a luscious shade of rich purple-pink, reminding me of the garnets in these earrings. Beautiful faceted rhodolite garnets are placed above textured coin pearls with colors that range from copper to purple to teal and magenta depending on the lighting. No matter how I tried I simply could not capture the glory of these pearls, but believe me - they are stunning in person. All the metal components in this pair of earrings are 14k goldfilled. The dangle measures just a touch under 3/4 of an inch (19mm) for a total length of 1 1/8 inches (29mm).

Your items will arrive safely packaged in my 'spice jars' and ready for gift giving.

My holiday promo is 15% off your highest priced item on any purchase from now through Dec 15. Just type 'SHEholidays' in the message to seller box at checkout and I'll issue the refund for 15% off when the item(s) ship.
