Heidi's Sporting Heroes

Heidi is launching the MisHelenEous 3 year small business anniversary competition by dressing up as Sir Steve Redgrave winning his record breaking gold medal tally at the Sydney Olympics. To celebrate this year of sport which includes the Rio Olympics and Euro 2016 we are having a bit of fun with a giveaway. There are three prizes up for grabs: Team Red, Team Blue, And Team White.

I have created a pinterest board for all entries and the competition is open to all my Twitter and Instagram followers whichever country they may be in.

Tweet or send me a picture of you or your pet dressed as your Favourite Sporting Hero or Favourite Sporting Moment and tell me why. Tag @mishelenous in your photos and use the hashtag #HeidisSportingHeroes

The prizes are as described below. Team Red wins their choice of a bag charm and extra misheleneous goodies. Team Blue wins a keyring of their choice plus extra misheleneous goodies. Team White wins a brooch of their choice plus extra misheleneous goodies. all prizes from my existing felt kennel, strictly no bespoke requests.

Below are some of the brooches I make and these are the choices on the Team White prize

Below are just some of the breeds I make as bag charms and keyrings. There are well over 30 different breeds to choose from now! Your choice of one of these for the Team Red and Team Blue Prizes.

In honour of my red, white and blue team prizes, my Made in Britain member status and my recent rebranding in those colours I have created some patriotic Union Jack Border terrier bag charms and keyrings! Available in Red Grizzle and Blue and Tan designs. All flying the union flag!

Good luck to all who enter and get your sporty thinking caps on! Closes June 4th 2016.

So the competition lasted the merry month of May and it was a fantastic way to celebrate my 3 year small business anniversary! Over 40 entries to choose from which are all featured on the Pinterest Board #hedissportingheroes Competition at https://www.pinterest.com/misheleneous/heidissportingheroes

Below are my three winners of the Team Red, Team Blue and Team White prizes.

The Winner of Team Red was @thedottydogco of Twitter and Instagram with her most excellent entry of Paula Radcliffe who Dotty the Border Terrier's mum Emma went to the same school as! The attention to detail is just brilliant. Well done Dotty and Emma.

Dotty and Emma chose a Red Grizzle handmade Border Terrier bag charm as their Team Red prize plus a few little extras from https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/MisHelenEous

The Team Blue prize winner was @ziggykier from Instagram and Twitter and despite having two beautiful dogs themselves they allowed little Lexy the Hamster to shine as Dutch weightlifting hero Ingrid Teeuwen! Its not often you get to see a weightlifting hamster in your life and mine has been made all the better for it! Again the attention to detail is superb and includes a little mirror. Well done Kirsten and Lexy.

The Team White Winner was @Monty_BTerrier of Twitter and his entry of Eddie the Eagle, a local Gloucestershire sporting hero. The ski goggles on Monty's head and the little laminated Calgary 1984 Winter Olympics sign are priceless. Well done Carole and Monty!
