UK Gift Gallery - Superb Sculptures and a Great Giveaway


I am very pleased to be able to introduce you to UK Gift Gallery AND bring you a lovely competition from them.

 UK Gift Gallery offer a wide range of bronze and pewter sculptures and figurines, together with contemporary wall art, ornaments and clocks.  I really do think there is something to suit all tastes, whether you are an animal lover, a fan of fantasy or erotic art, a vintage enthusiast or a shabby chic chick.

I'd love to share with you some of my favourite picks from their site.  First up, I have a bit of a thing about rabbits and hares.  I already own one hare bronze, known affectionately by the family as 'Stanley'.  but I've fallen in love with Bluebell here - isn't she adorable. I think Stanley would be very happy to have her as a mate.


Bluebell by Harriet Glen.  5 inches tall x 9 inches wide approx. Made from cold cast bronzed resin. £24.99


My little dumpling has recently expressed an interest in taking up ballet - I blame Peppa Pig.  But what a beautiful gift the ballerinas would make to celebrate your child's new passion or passing of a dance exam.


Cast from solid resin, plated with bronze then highlighted. Measures approx 5 inches. £18.99

If sculptures aren't your thing, there's this stunning vintage French style wall clock which would grace any hallway or kitchen.


Measures 14 inches / 34cm in diameter and requires 1 x AA battery. £9.99

Take a mooch around the site and see what takes your fancy - there are some lovely baby and pregnancy sculptures to celebrate motherhood and new arrivals; or maybe Gothic art and fantasy figures are your cup of tea.  Perhaps you like the erotic nudes (remember to hide it if granny comes to visit!).  In fact,  UK Gift Gallery would love you to take a look and decide what your favourite item is up to the value of £25, and you could win it!!!


To enter the competition to win your choice of item worth up to £25, you need to:

Follow my blog (use the 'follow' button over there on the right)

Then take a look around the store and leave a comment here, with the item you'd like to win.  Make sure you chose carefully, because if you're picked as the lucky winner what you write here will become your prize (subject to availability).  Items valued at £25 or less only please.

You MUST follow the above two steps to enter.  But you can gain ADDITIONAL entries for doing the following:

1. Follow UK Gift Gallery on Twitter @ThorneAntiques

2. Follow @missielizzieb on Twitter

3. Like UK Gift Gallery's Facebook page (take a look there for special offers & discounts)

4. Like Me and My Shadow's Facebook page

5. Post on your Facebook wall "I'm entering MissieLizzie's blog competition to win with @ThorneAntiques. You can enter too here: http://bit.ly/gAFhHZ "

6. Tweet "I'm entering @missielizzieb 's blog comp to win with @ThorneAntiques. You can enter too here http://bit.ly/gAFhHZ  "

Please include in your comment which of the above steps you have completed, and remember to leave a way for me to contact you.

The winner will be chosen at random after the closing date of Monday 14 February 2011 at 8pm.  I will make every effort to contact the winner, but if no response is received within 5 days, a new winner will be selected.  The winner must provide a UK postal address for dispatch of the prize, which will be fulfilled by UK Gift Gallery.

This is a sponsored post, but any views expressed are my own.
