Looking for Christmas in July items for team blog gift guide

[Lauraslefthook]

Post your or a teammate's items here that would be appropriate for a Christmas in July gift guide on our team blog. I will try to get one going as soon as I get enough items, so share yours and other teammates quickly so I can get it up quickly....

Thanks,
Laura

Hi Laura, I've got some Christmas stitch markers in my shop:

Hello, Laura, and thanks for doing this for us. I have several Christmas items in my shop, please feel free to chose what you like:

I had to close my 365 Days of Christmas shop because a lady contacted me telling me she had trade marketed that name in 1999 and had a business and website with that name, so I transferred some stuff over to my Honey Bee Crochet shop.

Thanks and have a nice day!

Do the items for the guide have to be Christmasy, such as decorations or holiday oriented wearable items? Or can they be any item that would make a good gift?

[Lauraslefthook]

I think the original idea might have been Christmasy things, but I would love to get this up quickly and would just like to get 12 items that would be good gifts for Christmas, especially before our sale night so we can have some extra promotion for it. I figured I would put a note in the gift guide about watching for a special Christmas in July Promotion from the team, not being specific so people would not just wait to purchase until that night if they happen upon it.

[Doris M. Sturm]

So, do you want me to submit something else if it's not going to be something from my Christmas items? Sorry, I'm confused. I thought we needed to provide you with christmas items because the attention getter would be to actually see Christmas items in July - if it's just regular stuff, it won't stand out - besides, anything and everything we make could potentially be a gift, right?

I hear what your saying Doris...guess we are all confused now! I don't really make "Christmas Items" but make a lot of items that can be bought as Chrismas Gifts. I would think either or would work in a Christmas in July sale but guess we need to find out from whomever is coordinating this guide!
