JOY to the WORLD!

This time of year it is so easy to jump from Halloween to Christmas. Stores are already putting up their aisles and aisles of Christmas decorations and the wish lists from everyone start pilling in. Christmas music is already on radio stations and with the temperature changing and getting colder we maybe start to long for Christmas break. Shabby Apple even already came out with a kind of Christmas-y feeling new line called Joyful!

            

However, there are so many wonderful things about Thanksgiving! There is wonderful food, the opportunity to be around friends and family that we love and not to mention some peace and quiet as the men watch football after dinner and then pass out (just kidding guys!)

Most of all this season between Halloween and Christmas is an opportunity to look at the wonderful people in your lives! We can reflect and feel grateful for those people who may have served us quietly or those people who are there for us EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Sometimes it's hard to know what to do for these people. Often times it just doesn't feel like enough to say thank you to truly express your gratitude. Well, this year Shabby Apple wants to help! We want to make this Thanksgiving an amazing one (maybe even an early Christmas surprise!).

We want you, our gorgeous readers, to nominate a person in your life who you are grateful for. We want you to tell us why you love this person or are so grateful to them. We want to know why you love them. Then, us at Shabby Apple will read them all and if we find a story that just warms our heart and maybe even make us laugh or cry we want to give the person you nominated.......

A FREE DRESS AND ACCESSORIES!!!! 

That's right you lovely new (complete!) outfit for this person whom you love and give thanks too. What better thank you can you give than that?

Now for the rules:

1. You may only nominate one person
2. Write a quick story about why you are nominating this person
3. Include a picture so that we can get a better picture of the person you love
4. Please include your name, the name of the person you're nominating and your email address
5. MOST IMPORTANT: Please, please please send your nomination to joyful@shabbyapple.com


If you are chosen we will contact you and then share your wonderful story on our blog! Because we want everyone to know how great the people in this world are! We love Thanksgiving and hope that you all find something or someone to be grateful for this year.

Here at Shabby Apple we know who we are all grateful for this year and it is all of YOU! 

(Here is what I would give to my sweet mom who has definitely been there for me this year!)

Can NOT wait to read all about the people who bring JOY to your lives!
