Ah well - to make up for it I'll have four prizes for Easter. Three packages for US/Canada and one for International entries.
Now it is time to get the Easter Gift Post up before that gets here as fast as time is going by for me!
I have three little Easter packages for the US/Canadian entries:
Here they are in separate picutres:
#1 QUACK the DUCKY
(who quacks when you push the patch on his chest!)
with a candle, a dish towel and treats
#2 MISSY BUNNY (a cute old fashion look!)
with a ceramic bunny house decoration that opens,
Easter window decals/stickers and treats
and #3 CARROT BUNNY (so soft and plump)
with a bunny bell, a dish cloth and treats
To enter you must comment telling me if you have any special Easter tradition. Or if you do not celebrate Easter but some other celebration at this time of year tell me what tradition you have for that.
US/Canada entries may enter by telling me whether you want #1, #2 or #3. You may enter for all three but you will only be allowed to win one package.
International visitors are entering for a chance to win a gift certificate of your bookstore choice for $8.00.
Okay- I hope those rules are all clear.
The giveaway will run until 10pm Central March 28. Hopefully that will allow the packages to arrive near Easter!!
I want #1. I think the quacking is cute.

We always have an Easter Egg hunt with the little grandchildren. They start talking about this way before Easter and really look forward to it and it is so much fun! I like all of the packages but #1, Quack the Ducky is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThanks and Happy Easter.

Okay don't enter me(I have too many stuffed animals already), but I wanted to say that the fact that Quacky actually quacks is really cute.
ReplyDeleteI also wanted to say my favorite tradition is dying eggs. Especially as an adult. I started doing eggs with wax relief. I hollow the eggs first and then I dye them I have eggs which I have had for years.
I LOVE #1.
ReplyDeleteA Easter Tradition for my family is Hiding the Easter Basket. Growing up we had so much fun finding it. My mother was so creative in her hiding spots. Some years we were climbing trees.
Now that I have a kid of my own I am passing the Tradition on.
My husbands family is passing the Sugar Lamb on. In Poland they have a Lamb Made of sugar that sits on the Table. They buy one they keep forever and of course one for the kiddies.
International entry. Easter is a very religious festival among Christians in Sri Lanka. Good Friday is in fact a public holiday and services are traditional and take the full three hours. Easter Sunday has also got the full services though Easter eggs are just becoming popular amongst urban Christians. The big festival in April in Sri Lanka is the New Year celebrations commencing 13th April.
ReplyDeletewhat delightful gift packages, wow.
ReplyDeleteat Easter I dye eggs using onion skins as my Mom and Grandma before used to do. They turn out a lovely bronzy color.
I also bake cup cakes and decorate them with white icing, green coconut(grass) and jelly beans as eggs and it looks like eggs in a nest.
I love all 3 of the gifts
Our family celebrates Easter together which is nice - a big family meal which is rare with people all over the place.
ReplyDeleteI'd love #1 or #2

We just celebrate it for the kids. Egg hunts and stuff.

We don't do anything special. It is Resurrection Sunday for us. No Easter bunnies. However, I love stuffed animals, especially soft ones. These look oh, so soft.
ReplyDeleteHard decision. Just surprise me. Put my name in for all three. Thanks
Happy day to you, Abi

Easter Sunday starts with a big breakfast, Sunday worship service, and then a trip to great-grandma's where the whole family gathers for a big lunch and a huge easter egg hunt for all of the kids. I like all three - they're too cute! Thanks for the chance!

I love all of them but my FAVE is that #2 bunny, the old fashioned looking one :)
ReplyDeleteour Easter tradition is something like this: we have a huge bunch of people over and i do the table settings really fancy. we have lamb (which is AMAZING the way my mommy makes it :D) and we do a sader plate. the plate has stuff that the Israelites probably ate, and each thing is a symbol. the parsley and the salt water represent the tears and the freshness of promise, the apple cinnamon nut mix represents sweetness of God and the mortar that they used, stuff like that. there are six or seven symbols. we're not jewish but we do it anyway :)

One of our traditions is to bake hot cross buns. My mom taught me as I was growing up and now I'm passing that tradition and receipe on.
ReplyDeleteI'd love any one of the three. So cute. Thanks for the great contest!

I would love to have #2! That old fashioned dress on that bunny is too adorable!
ReplyDeleteOur family tradition for Easter is to decorate Easter eggs the night before for the "Easter Bunny" to hide on Easter morning. We always save one egg for the "Ugly" egg and by ugly egg I mean UGLY! It's when we dump all the dye colors into one big bowl and let the "ugly" egg sit for awhile...sometimes it comes out brown, sometimes black, sometimes grey but they are all the ugliest shades of those colors. LoL! It's so fun though!
Thanks for the great contest!!

One of our family traditions is to always have a chocolate cross in the children's Easter Baskets. It's not Easter at our home if there is no Chocolate Cross.
ReplyDeleteNumber 2 or number 3 would be fine!

I love num 1 but hubby says num 2 is cool so... We gave a giant easter egg hunt in our yard for all the neighbor hood kids and hubby dyes what seems like a never-ending pile of eggs but its a blast to watch the kids go nuts trying to get to the eggs :)

We have my daughter's friends over to color eggs & we always have Easter Dinner with family.
ReplyDeleteI like #1 & #2

Oh these packages are so cute! But the bookstore gift card is a great prize too :-)
ReplyDeleteWhen we were children, my grandma and my parents hid the chocolate bunnies in the garden, and we, the children had to find them. We also had to do it quick, before the others found it first! :-)

At Easter we go to the brother in laws house and he arranges the Easter Egg Hunt. Then we sit down to a great ham dinner that he cooks.
ReplyDeleteI love Easter Gift #1
