12 Favourites, Part 2… #StorenvyFlash30… Angel Crafts Shop…

More pinning has been happening over on my All i Want for Christmas pinterest board. So now it’s time to share with you my 12 favourites from these next 20 items.

Before i do that, just a quick recap of why i’m pinning all these wonderful items. It’s because these stores are all part of #StorenvyFlash30, where on the 1st of December 2014, Cyber Monday, you get to use a special code (storenvyflash30) to get 30% off your purchases from all 50 over stores listed here. AngelCraftsShop is part of the list.

Now onto my 12 Favourites, Part 2 (please click on the pictures to be taken directly to the item’s store page) :

37coffee — Everything is AWESOME! Isn’t it just? 😉 i love the Lego Movie and this cross-stitch is THE gift for a fan of that movie!

Alice_In_Wonderland_TeabagFavors — i like tea and i like the story of Alice in Wonderland so of course i would pick this to give out at a party. And it’s already so nicely packaged!

alwaysnecklace — i’m sure i have mentioned it before – i’m a HP fan! And this one word line “Always” really sticks out for me. This is a very tasteful pretty necklace and can be given to anyone who likes charming jewelry.

bekinder_tote — Words to live by, for sure. And what better way to tell someone how kind they have been than to give them a bag which says so and will enable them to share this message further.

coloursortingtoy — i’m an organiser and i love toys. Combine that with the fact that these are handmade… it is the perfect gift for that cutie who is a new addition to your family.

handmadedollKenzie — Rag dolls – they are so cool and easy to carry around. They should be a must-have for every child. So why not give lovely Kenzie a home and your little one a constant companion?

holiday_card_enjoythesmallthings — Photography is a passion of mine and i like details. So for me, while this may not be the traditional type of season greetings card, it is a beautiful one – one which carries an important message – to stop and enjoy the small things…

madhatternacklace — i know this is the second item on this list which ties to Alice in Wonderland but what can i say – it’s a great book with good lines and this one i like very much… does anyone know the answer though? i would like to know if you do 😉 Maybe the person you give this to will know?

Peacock_christmastree_earrings — These earrings are just gorgeous! i like that they are not exactly alike. The lady in your life would be more than happy to receive these as a gift.

Penguin_Hat — Cute! Cute! Cute! Need i say more? Keep your little one’s head nice and warm while allowing them to look even more adorable than they already are.

quietrainbowpatchworkbook — i like books and i encourage every parent to give a book to a child the moment they can grab. So this colourful and tactile book i would give to a curious little one to encourage a love of books.

rayanababybunny — Bunnies are such well-loved creatures and for good reason – they are so very cute and this one is colourful and cuddly – just the thing for a sweet little one who loves animals and hugs.

So did anything catch your eye? Yes?

Well, bookmark it and make your purchase on #StorenvyFlash30, Cyber Monday, 1st Dec to get your 30 % discount!
