Before the Christchurch blogging conference we were all given a name badge and gift swap partner as an ice breaker for
Saturday Morning
My swap partner Emily - What A Hoot
I was fortunate to have met Emily once before at Friday Craft night
There had been talk all around blogsphere - to hug or not to hug
** I AM A Hugger **
and the thought that someone might not be a hugger was like a foreign language to me
After discovering Emily was NOT a hugger a plan formed
Emily
What A Hoot
I am not a natural hugger
I love love loved the name badge Emily made for me.
There are some seriously creative bloggers/women out there and some outstanding name badges
In fact Roz did a blog post about them
Linking in with Show and tell
Whilst your there check out Leonie's Mouse House another amazingly creative name badge
Sunday Afternoon
A quiet reflective walk around the streets of Lyttleton left me choking back tears
It wasn't that long ago we were considering relocating our lives to this artistic village

Yes you ARE a hugger, a lovely wonderful hugger!

love and light
I absolutely loved the owl .so cute! I also liked the name badge. can totally understand how emotional it can be to see your fav town ravaged by natural disaster
Lovely name badge!
How cute is that Hoot Owl and your name badge is gorgeous too.
Hmm I find it hard to hug... Our bobbers hug each morning but I chose who to hug.. :(
both the name badges were totally AWESOME!!!
I am still processing the devastation in Christchurch... but really need to do a post about conference asap!
Just a note about Lyttelton. It was so wonderful to show you (and the others) around Cat. Despite the damage, there is a wonderful community spirit that supports and brings hope here. I blog more specifically about Lyttelton and thought you'd be interested to see links to some of the granny graffitti http://piecebypeacecottage.blogspot.co.nz/2012/06/grubb-cottage-gets-warm-fuzzies.html
Big hugs from me!
Wow just going to swap cool name badges would have been enough...let alone all the fun you guys sound like you had. xx
I had no idea you two were swapsie buddies, they were both two of my favourite name tags from the day!!! You both did such a great job :) ♥♥
I am a hugger too. :) I hugged someone on the Saturday night, I can't remember who it was... They gave me this really awkward face. It was awkward. Then, in that moment of awkwardness, I wondered if I had just hugged one of the non-huggers. Uh-oh!
(note to that person) If you're reading this, and it was you who I hugged, I'm sorry! You looked huggy.
I love this post.
I was the lucky one with the name tags - loved my owl, it's up on my noticeboard above my desk where I see it all the time. Awesome.
