Good morning everyone! Have you ever seen any of those #meetthemaker challenges on Instagram? They are a great way to get to know the artists involved, to see not only what they create, but what drives and inspires them too. Well these year, I am honoured to say that I was invited to join the lovely Clare over at The Boho Jewellery Box (you can find her fabulous website HERE) as well as ten other talented makers in a Christmas themed Twelve Days Of Making challenge!
From 1st - 12th November, we will be following prompts to create some fun social media posts all about our most Christmassy makes, what we love about Christmas, who we are grateful for, etc. This is the first time I have ever been invited to participate in one of these, and I am so excited!
AND, to make this even more special, we are inviting you all to join in on our fun. Each day, one of us will "host" the challenge on Instagram, and you will have the chance to join in and share your own photos. Just make sure you tag us and use the #12daysofmaking hashtag so we can find you. Each day, the host will pick their favourite out of all the images shared with them that day, and after the challenge is over, one lucky winner from those twelve people will get a special handmade gift or store credit, from each of us!!!!

Even if you are not a maker yourself, at the very least, you will see some incredible examples of handmade art, jewelry, clothing and accessories that will inspire you to shop small this Christmas!
Many thanks to Clare Middlecote from The Boho Jewellery Box for coming up with this awesome idea, and for creating all the lovely art work images for us to use. For more information on each of the artists involved, please check out Clare's gorgeous blog post HERE.
