The Easter Jewelry Giveaway!

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.

THE WINNER WILL BE ANNOUNCED TOMORROW (THURS) MORNING!

As promised the Easter Bunny made a special delivery to my blog this morning:

That’s not just any peep in my basket, it’s a gorgeous, one of a kind, antique brass bird from Belleza Mia!

Kendra has been working hard, and one of my lucky readers is going to get the reward – this unique and adorable necklace:

To enter, leave me a comment answering the question, What’s your favorite thing about Easter?

Additional entries will be given for:

  1. Blogging, Facebooking, or Tweeting about this giveaway – please leave separate comment(s) with the link(s).
  2. Being or becoming a fan of The Average Pantry Gourmet on FB.
  3. Having the Just a Mom, HA! button or link on your blogroll.

The contest will end on Wednesday April 7th at 9 pm central time.  The winner will be announced on Thursday morning.

Please leave all of your entries as separate comments.

I’ve got to give one more plug for Kendra’s store, Belleza Mia, before this post is done.  While I was writing this I went to check for new merchandise and got completely distracted creating a fantasy wish list of things I adore. Like this necklace for instance – it makes my toes curl, it’s so darn cute! (**Just to be perfectly clear, this isn’t the necklace for the giveaway, I just really really like it and thought it deserved a special promotion too.**)

Kendra’s prices are reasonable, her quality is fantastic, and her splendid personality shines through in every piece.  I hope you’ll check out her store, she’s an amazing Mama with an amazing talent!

Thanks for playing along with us and Happy Easter Mamas!

    Although Cadbury eggs are high on my list I have to say that I love Easter for the freshness it brings to my life. Fresh season, fresh wardrobe, fresh new motivation and of course that spiritual freshness that comes from conference and focusing on Christ!

    I am grateful and humbled for a full day to remind me of the Savior’s Atonement and ultimate sacrifice for me. I am also happy for a day to spend with my family.

    a). I love that it’s another reason be together with my family, to remember that it’s through the Savior’s atonement that we can be together forever as a family. b). That I have another day to remember the Savior and that he lives and loves us.

    My favorite thing about Easter is being reminded what the resurrection does for us. This year it is especially meaningful because it tells me that I will get to see my sister again as a whole person and perfected. Easter is a beautiful gift for us all. I have your link on my blog too.

    My favorite thing about Easter is the awesome juxtaposition of pagan and Christian symbolism. It makes me smile to think that whatever rites and rituals people use to celebrate the day, really everyone is just super psyched to experience the renewal of life and fertility that comes every springtime

    Our annual egg hunt is by far my favorite Easter tradition – it was so much fun as a kid, and now I get to be on the other end. It is just as much fun to hide the eggs and watch the kids get so excited! Thanks so much for the giveaway!

    My kids are young and still learning the Real meaning of Easter but I have to say the BEST thing about Easter is thier faces when they wake up and see that the Easter bunny has came and hid the eggs we colored with our family and friends the day before and they get to open the baskets he left so they can use them to fill with the eggs! :)

    Resurrection/ Easter reminds me that new growth and relationships will spring upon us at unexpected times. Among them are birds migrating, bulbs blooming, trees glowing with blossoms as well as the smiles warmer weather brings to the faces of humankind.
