Until December 7th we are Giving Away Products from FIVE Different Companies...(CLOSED)


GIVEAWAY #1: An Item of Choice to One Lucky Winner
from The Shabby Thread


I've got a confession to make. I want to look cute on Christmas Day. In fact, it is one of those days that I plan (far in advance) what me and my children (and sometimes even my husband) will be wearing. You know, photos will be snapped, distant relatives will be seen, and all will be having a gay ole' time. So why not look good?

This year on Christmas Day I will be wearing the above bib necklace from The Shabby Thread. Why? Because I like it.
It's unique, fun, and it pops.

The Shabby Thread is a rare site where you can find the latest fashion statement piece, bib necklaces, as well as chic headbands, hair clips, and leather cuff bracelets, all inspired by the hot fabric-floral trend. They have a variety of colors, textures, and a range of styles from shabby chic to formal! Bib necklaces are the season's must have, and can add style and color to almost anything, including: tunics, sweaters, dresses, blouses, t-shirts, cardigans, etc. Ask about custom ordering with your wedding colors, and have the most classy, unique, and stylish bridal party yet! Check out their new exclusive line of toddler & girl's bib necklaces, and even order mommy & daughter coordinating sets.

Today one lucky winner will win an item of choice from The Shabby Thread. If you live in the US or Canada, go ahead and enter to win up to THREE times.

For one entry, leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry, please visit The Shabby Thread's website here and then return to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and the item you would like if you are our winner.
Example: Jane Doe: I think choosing just one item from The Shabby Thread is nearly impossible. But if I must, I would want The Flirty Bib Necklace. I also have to say that I love the model's red hair. My niece has red hair and I think it is beautiful.

For a third entry, in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and what you did last night.
Example: Jane Doe: My friend Jamie had an ornament exchange party. I had never been to one before and wasn't quite sure what to expect, but it was really fun! I received 60 handpainted ornaments from the students of Union Middle School. Their teacher had them paint them as part of an assignment and she brought them to give away. The ornaments are very bright and colorful and will be a lovely addition to our tree.

The winner of the item of choice from The Shabby Thread will be announced Monday, December 7th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to discover our new giveaway. Thanks and have a great weekend!
