We’re on our last update for the December PikaPackage Project, and this brings our lot of participants to 24! Come to think of it, I think I may actually stick to a smaller number, as it is so much more fun! Update number 3 has these wonderful participants that we would like to showcase:

1. Tad Carpenter sent in a massive package that contained silkscreened giant prints of his monster mix-up (each waist of the monsters are of the same width, and so is interchangeable), silkscreens on wood panels + loads of cards;
2. Yael Fran sent in an assortment of fabulous brooches, necklaces and gift tags made from her beautiful collages!
3. Lizzy House sent in a beautiful package filled with handprinted cards, prints and twee notebooks!
4. Cristina Sitja Rubio sent in a fun coloring book, buttons and prints for the December package;
5. Susan Schwake sent in beautiful original drawings and prints of her work;
6. Julie of Your Secret Admiral sent in her hand-drawn and hand-bound notebooks of various sizes;
7. Maria Kalcheva sent in colourful mini prints, cards and calendars; and
8. Anna Rosete of 1760 Sunday House sent in handmade Christmas ornaments, along with her prints all packed up in a pretty package!

See more pictures of what our participants sent in over at our Flickr stream, and remember to sign up for our mailing list because the giveaway is just around the corner (really close!), and so are the packages that are available for purchase (they’re perfect stocking stuffers!). Because the number of participants are smaller for this round, the number of packages available for sale is also much smaller than usual!

Sabrina of Fox & Clover makes these beautiful homewares by hand-illustrating imagery onto glass with glass enamels and a quill pen. And since 2008, she has been making her plates out of old reclaimed windows as she is a great believer of sustainable design. Her designs are dotted with naturalistic elements, which are derived from her childhood in Minnesota’s beautiful St. Croix river valley, where fireflies, beavers, oaks and owls were the backdrop of her daily life.

She also has other items for sale, such as necklaces and Christmas ornaments that are made the same way — have a look at her Etsy shop and be blown away!

Things have been a little hectic here lately with the upcoming giveaway, and with only one more update to go before we launch the December round, we’re so happy to let you in on the next round of participants!

1. Anna Emilia sent in four copies of her beautiful book entitled Proof of Winter;
2. Sarah of craftyFOLK sent in fabulous magnets and brooches that are all handmade with love;
3. Shannon of Loaded Hips Press sent in handpressed linoprints in all shapes and sizes;
4. Julia Staite sent in her awesome handmade zines – a retelling of The Little Red Riding Hood;
5. Renee of Wolfie and the Sneak sent in these lovely print packs, and a reminder not to use plastics!
6. Mara of Printspace sent in wonderful full-sized prints of her work;
7. Jannie Ho of Chickengirl sent in adorable cards with her characters in time for the holidays; and
