I’m going to finally announce the winners of the 12 days of Indie Holiday Shopping. I know it’s long overdue, but for some reason this year it took a very long time to hear back from all the winners. Then it was vacation time for me, but I’m all ready now.

Anyway, congratulations to all the winners and a big thank you to all the participating shops for some really amazing prices!

The time has come for the last day of the 12 days of Indie Holiday Shopping. I hope you have had fun learning about some new indie shops as well as entering all the giveaways.  About those giveaways, I’ve chosen about half the winners already and will notify the others over this weekend. Once I hear back from all the winners,  I will share them on Indie Fixx. Make sure to check your email this weekend though, folks.  Now let’s find out about the last 12 Days shop.

You all may remember me featuring drika.b a couple of times before. I’ve long been enamored with their colorful, hip and practical handbags and pouches. The designs are totally unique and I just love the striking fabric choices & combinations. I’m pretty sure that you would have some happy giftees if you gifted some drika.b goodies.  I’m trying to work out how I can get Mr. Indie Fixx to put one under our tree for me!

Learn how you can win a drika.b $71 gift certificate below, which you can use to purchase gifts or selfishly keep for yourself—that would be my choice.

To win: To win, leave a comment below with your drika.b favorites for yourself and your giftees. Multiple entries will be accepted, but you must leave a comment for each entry…i.e. if you find 3 favorites, then leave 3 separate comments. This will increase your chances for winning.

I will choose one random commenter to win. This contest ends December 13th at 11:59 pm EST.

For regular readers of the blog, you know that I am a fan of artist Tara Hogan’s shop Ink + Wit. I’ve featured her work many, many times and Tara has participated in the 12 days of Indie Holiday Shopping since the beginning, and this year is no exception.

One of my personal favorites from Ink +Wit are the Aesop’s Fables prints. I have the whole collection and there are still a few left in Tara’s Etsy shop. Tara has also recently come out with a new Aesop’s Fables Hare and Tortoise Poster, which I am coveting and you could win!  See the details below.

Besides the Aesop’s Fables poster, shoppers will find other prints and posters to choose from as well as lots of great letterpress & other goodies. The 2010 letterpress calendar would make a particularly lovely gift for an art and/or letterpress lover, but make sure to take a look around and see what all the pretties.

To win: To win an Aesop’s Fables Hare and Tortoise Poster, leave a comment below with your Ink + Wit (Etsy shop) favorites for yourself and your giftees. You can share goods from both the website and Etsy shop. Multiple entries will be accepted, but you must leave a comment for each entry, i.e. if you find 3 favorites, then leave 3 separate comments. This will increase your chances for winning.

I will choose one random commenter to win. This contest ends December 11th at 11:59 pm EST.

It’s getting cold around here, as it is in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere about this time of year, and for me that means I pretty much live in scarves & other warm wear. I wear scarves, hats, & gloves outside and cowls, neckwarmers & fingerless gloves inside. It’s really the only way I can manage to keep warm…especially since we are committed to keeping the thermostat down as much as possible. I also like to accessorize, so there are plenty of opportunities to do that.

If you want to be warm this season or are looking for warm wear for gifts, you must visit Phydeaux Designs. There’s so many gorgeous things to choose from.  I really like the cowls (so much so that I own one myself), which you can purchase in all sorts of colors or if you are knitty, you can knit yourself from the pdf pattern. There are also scarves for guys & girls, fingerless gloves, the prettiest neckwarmers & more.

I’m feeling warmer just writing about all these goodies! How about you, would you like to win some Phydeaux Designs goodies?  Of course, you do! Read how to win a $75 gift certificate below.

To win: Leave a comment below with your Phydeaux Designs favorites for yourself or your gift recipients. Multiple entries will be accepted, but you must leave a comment for each entry, i.e. if you find 3 favorites, then leave 3 separate comments. This will increase your chances for winning

I will choose one random commenter to win. This contest ends December 10th at 11:59 pm EST.

But, I shouldn’t get ahead of myself just yet and forget about today’s shop…the Broken Plate Pendant Co. Offering way more than just pendants these days, the Broken Plate Pendant Co has all sorts of jewelry pieces made from recycled plates, vintage china and sentimental ceramic shards. There’s stuff for both guys and girls and custom designs can even be created from your broken ceramics.

I own a few Broken Plate pieces and sure wouldn’t mind owning a few more! What about you? Share below and you could win a $50 Broken Plate Pendant Co  gift certificate for yourself or for a friend.

I chose One Canoe Two as today’s 12 Days of Indie Holiday Shopping shop because I think their letterpress lovelies would make the best gifts for holiday season. I mean who wouldn’t love some Letterpress Recipe Cards and a Handmade Recipe Box? I know I sure would! Letterpress makes everything just better, doesn’t it?

Other great gift ideas include: the Letterpress Calendar, Custom Letterpress Notecards & lots of Letterpress art prints from which to choose.
