Tuesday Tip (On A Monday) – $184 Holiday Party Giveaway
Usually I start my giveaways on a Tuesday but this one starts now and ends on Sunday so you’ll have plenty of time to order and (hopefully) get in time for Christmas entertaining! It’s a Holiday Party Giveaway full of amazing shops and products that one lucky reader will get to fall in love with…or already have!
Pretty Little Party Shop is the latest venture from Sandra of Sandra Downie Events. She’s already one of my go-to places for party inspiration and her shop is no exception! From vessels to paper decor and everything in between, she’s got it all. And with her graciously sharing $35 credit to her shop, you can get yourself a little piece of happy.
You’ve already seen SimoneMadeIt printables in action here…I used her LEGO party printables for the little one’s party this summer! She has a shop full of fun party packs that are filled with everything you’ll need, from invitations to banners to cupcake toppers. And with a $50 credit, you can check ‘Christmas tabletop’ checked off and get another party covered…maybe a baby shower or birthday party?
I’m a big fan of felt…and I’m an even bigger fan of play food. Combine them both and you get the sheer cleverness that is MilkFly from my hometown of Houston. Each item is hand stitched to order using eco-Friendly felt. To get you hooked on her products…and you will…Huong Huynh will make and send you a Sprinkles cupcake. I know, you already have a special little spot for it.
Every party needs a little entertainment…and if you are thinking about bringing in a performer, GigMasters has you covered. From bands and singers to belly dancers and Elvis impersonators they have every level of performer across the country at your disposal. Get the party ball rolling with a $30 credit!
Since I love baker’s twine and mini brown paper bags and paper straws, I’ll be sending you…
a. 50 papers straws from Think Garnish, 25 in red and 25 in blue.
b. 2 sampler sets from The Twinery, the Simply Traditional Christmas Sampler Trio and Merry and the Bright Sampler Trio…15 yards of each in Maraschino, Cappuccino, Caribbean, Pink Sorbet and 30 yards in Peapod, a total of 90 yards!
c. 25 small brown paper bags to add your Christmas treats that you can tie up with…wait for it…baker’s twine.
And to top it all off…I’ll be adding in a $25 gift card to my favorite place to for the bestest entertaining pieces like appetizer plates, wine glasses, candle holders…Crate & Barrel!
So, if you’ve been keeping track…that $184 worth of stuff! So now, you ask, how do I get my hands on it??? Since it is the season of giving, so I’m feeling generous with 10 chances to enter!!

I've always loved Christmas, everything about it! It's even better now that I have kids. One of my traditions is taking my kids to Christmas Village to see the lights. They are always so excited to see what is in each little house, and we always run into someone cool…like the Grinch, Santa (of course), a real reindeer, etc.

All of her food is darling and looks so real! I like the make a wish cupcake and the lemon meringue pie!
I think it would be fun to have an impersonator at a party.
I like the Sweet Shoppe and Dinosaur parties from SimoneMadeIt's shop!
I like the red and white polka dot boxes, the holiday paper starbursts, and the vintage style milk bottles from Pretty Little Party Shop.
I've liked all 3 on FB! Awesome giveaway!!
I love Christmas Eve at my place. Everyone gathers, we stuff ourselves with food and then we play games (like our gift swap). Every year it gets better and better every year. Love to be with friends and family.

And Gig Masters seemed like a great resource. Wow. Lots of new places to add to my long list of daily internet stalking. Thanks!
My favorite Christmas tradition is to fill cups of hot chocolate, turn on Christmas music, and drive the neighborhoods to look at Christmas lights as a family. We are all together, all ages enjoy it, and it's uninterrupted!
I want ALL of the Milk Fly food items! My daughter's room has a "Bake Shoppe" in it, and I made a full felt playhouse. These would be an adorable addition to either. LOVE!
Simone Made It's Movie Night pack would be so much fun with the cardboard box "cars" for a "Drive-In" movie party.
