{Giveaway} Ebony’s 2013 Holiday Favorites!

December 17, 2013

Happy Tuesday!  Are you in the holiday spirit?  I am!  Today marks the beginning of the my holiday favorites giveaway!  I am super excited about sharing a box of goodies with one lucky reader!  Here’s a peek at what’s included:

Ebony Peoples Events & Design, Dallas Wedding Planner, Dallas Event Planner, Holiday Giveaway, Christmas Giveaway, Home Alone, Mariah Carey Merry Christmas, Christmas Candles

1. Mariah Carey’s Merry Christmas CD – My mommy used to play this in the car year round when I was younger!  She would crank it up and we would sing our hearts out!

2. Red & Green Peanut M&M’s – These are my absolute favorite!  Try mixing peanut m&m’s with a handful of kettle corn.  You’ll thank me later!

3. Home Alone – This movie makes me feel like a kid again!  I can watch this any day, at anytime, and I know ALL of the words!  “This house is so full of people it makes me sick!  When I grow up and get married, I’m living alone!  Do you hear me?  I’m living along…” ~Kevin M.

4. $5 Star bucks Gift Card – Warm up with your favorite Starbucks drink!  I personally LOVE an upside-down caramel macchiato!  (The red cup ornament gift cards are super cute!)

5. Bath & Body Works Shea Infused Lounge Socks – These shea-infused socks keep my feet soft and cuddly for snuggling with my hubby during the cold winter months!

6. HGTV Magazine – There’s always soooo much inspiration in the HGTV magazines – especially the holiday issue!  DIY ornaments coming right up!

7. Orville Redenbacher’s Kettle Corn – Kettle Corn is the perfect combination of sweet and salty goodness.  I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do!

8. OPI Cheers to the Holidays Nail Polish – OPI is one of my favorite nail polish brands.  I love to keep my nail festive and fabulous.  You should too!

9. Bath & Body Works Holiday Candles – I burn candles year round!  I just love the way my home smells with these holiday scents!  Sparkling Icicles is my favorite!

10. True Blue Spa Shea Cashmere Handcream – No more dry hands for me!  Hands down, this hand cream (found at Bath & Body Works) wins in my book every time!

    Thank you so much for offering such a fun and generous giveaway. I love picking out the perfect tree, decorating, shopping for gifts, watching Christmas movies, etc. One of my favorite things to do is smile at every single person I pass while shopping for gifts. You would be surprised at how many people start out frowning and brighten right up as soon as you toss a smile their way. I love it! 🙂

    Merry Christmas!
