During the lead up to Christmas I took part in the Virtual Advent Tour hosted by Marg of Intrepid Reader. I loved taking part and am still reading the posts others submitted - with all these great blogs and posts it is a wonder we have time for books or anything else! Anyway, I wrote for two events 18th December, which was selected because it would have been my Grandmother's 99th Birthday. I chose to make the remembrance different using Kiva. I plan to commorate other specific family events using Kiva during 2012. The other post was on 21st December and was written to commemorate my husband's special birthday. As part of his special present I purchased this personalised mug for him from Emma Bridgewater
A lovely commemorative for the future.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI guess, your husband was delighted to get such a special gift. The mug looks really masculine and elegant. Nice idea. Thanks for sharing and have a great New Year.
