Turkey with Stuffing Felt Play Food by bugbitesplayfood

For those in the States, Happy Thanksgiving! Our American team members are planning on stuffing ourselves with turkey this upcoming Thursday, how about you?

In the mean time, here's what we've been up to this past week:

• Louise shares a peek into her Saturday.
• Anna-Karin has jellyfish on her brain (and in her shop)!
• Jo finished the special necklace that she shared last week.
• Ginger found a cute way to "store" cats.
• I'm partial to Doodle 68 from Joanne!
• Catherine shared a post of her own personal jewelry collection, which in turn inspired Sirpa to do the same!
• Katja's been dealing with the color pink this past week.
• Brandi joined in the A Crafty Holiday Blog Hop.

Since it's a holiday week, I'll be skipping the Blog Roundup next weekend, but will be back in December! Gobble gobble!

The members of the Etsy's Best Kept Secrets team are so varied, with tons of different interests. I thought it would be fun to start a weekly series featuring what our members were up to. So, what were our members blogging about this week? Let's take a look (in no particular order):

• Peg's house is turning 100! One project down, and is she already eyeing another?
• Have you heard of the World Doodle Challenge? Joanne is showing off her contribution, Doodle #57.
• Anna-Karin finds beauty in a silent autumn morning, and takes you along.
• Catherine shows off a ghostly white treasury over on her blog.
• Louise has taken a big, big step (go Louise!).
• Sirpa's already Christmas shopping. How about you?
• Brandi's sharing a few trinkets that she keeps in her studio to brighten her day.
• Katja's on the search for a new bed.
• And Jo's not letting a little cold slow her down!
