QUICK QUIZ:
December is designated for what animal-loving cause and what does this have to do with sandtray?
(answer at the bottom of the email)
Alright, now let's talk about one of MY (and likely yours too!) favorite subjects....miniatures!
With the holidays being here and Christmas right around the corner, this is prime time to snag some cool ornaments to use as miniatures.
In fact, over at Miniature Madness, we've got TWO new miniatures that happen to double as ornaments...
Simply click on the picture to check them out on the store

Want some MORE tips about making the most of Christmas ornaments to beef up your miniature collection?
Check out this past edition of the Sandtray Ally below, that's a TON of tips there about the different categories and even a make-your-own-miniature craft
Speaking of miniatures and my all-consuming love for the subject, we've officially rolling out our new miniature company, Miniature Madness (yep, I slyly hinted at it above)
It's been my dream and goal to one day open a miniature store to bring ya'll quality miniatures AND take the guesswork out of buying miniatures.
Through Miniature Madness, you get cool miniatures AND I tell how each one is used and if you need it for your population.
Our goal is no buyers remorse, no wondering if and when you should get this miniature.
We take out the guesswork for you!
AND - to kick off the Christmas season, we're in the middle of a special 12 days of Christmas sale.
Today is day 4 - to celebrate, we're sending each person who orders anything at all today a free eraser bundle and a chalice!
To get in on all of the sales (we've got lots more coming over the next several days), you need to do these two things:
1. Visit the Miniature Madness website to sign up for our emails - when you spin the wheel of fortune, you'll have a chance at getting even MORE of a discount.
2. Follow the Miniature Madness page on Facebook - we roll out a ton of specials there, behind the scenes looks at what we have coming, and just cool info about all things sandtray and miniatures.

Answer: The month of December focuses on #OperationSantaPaws, which encourages all to support local animal shelters and give to friends of our furry companions!
Check out one of our newest miniatures called Adopt a Kitten - this miniature is a must for clients of all ages so they can have representations of the important role that pets play in our lives!
