Giveaway: Girls Night Out at the NWA Boutique Show!

10/28/2013 nwamamas

nwaboutique bigWe had so much fun with last week’s giveaway that we are doing one more to celebrate the NWA Boutique Show which is coming up fast on Nov. 8-9!

This week’s FIVE winners (and the friend they invite to come along!) will be headed to the fabulous Boutique Show Girls Night Out, benefiting JOYN!

Each of the 5 ticket bundles includes:

  • Two Girls Night Out passes ($20 value)
  • 5 general admission tickets ($15 value)
  • 1 merchant gift certificate to be used at the show

That’s a $50 value for each bundle! (And if you don’t want to take a chance with this giveaway, tickets can be bought online in advance at www.nwaboutiqueshow.com.)

We love that the GNO benefits JOYN, which takes artisans living in poverty and crashes them together with the thriving fashion world. Each step of the process is done by hand: creating more jobs, creating more joy and connecting more artisans with people who love hand-made things.

Since the Girls Night will focus on chevron, below are shots from five different merchants revolving around that theme.

Each of the five winners will receive a gift certificate from one of the below vendors (in order): Engravings Unlimited, The Global Shoppe (featuring JOYN products and more), Meagan Lee Designs, From Me 2 You Creations and Spirit Girl Boutique.

  1. The best gift I have ever received was from my husband and daughter that was a necklace that had a heart cut out of it. My daughters necklace was the heart cut out the circle.

  3. Best gift I ever received was my wedding. Daddy paid for it (he just surprised me with a card saying he would cover it)… unfortunately, that was the last time Daddy was able to walk (he was dying of cancer) and he passed only 4 months later. But not having that burden and stress made it one of the best gifts ever.

I wear it every single day.

  43. The best gift I ever received was my professional flute given by my parents while in college. 20 years later I am still teaching and playing with that beautiful instrumwnt that made it all possible.

A few Christmas ago I received some custom razorback dishes that I loved and every Christmas my mother in law makes custom dish towels for me. I love them! I love the Nwa boutique show its my favorite area shopping event all year!

  62. Best gift ever has been when the child I work with in respite care looked at me and said’ Misha’…which for her and her brother (both children of the light..aka Autistic) is a VERY special gift of communication! They have been a beacon to all who may know them!

  70. When I was 15 my mom bought me this simple little 3 x 5 wood plaque that had two mice on it . One is lifting the other up to reach something up high on a shelf and it says “Love makes you twice as tall.” So true! I keep this in my kitchen to this very day!

  73. The best gift I received was on Christmas two years ago. My children and husband had been working on acting out the Christmas story in secret. They surprised me on Christmas morning with a wonderful play of the birth of Christ in my living room!

  74. The best gift ever came from my husband on my 50th birthday. I gave him a few parameters for my 50th present about 9 months in advance. I told him I wanted something tangible that you could hold, something that he thought of, and it had to be at least $100. He designed a necklace that was a never-ending circle to represent life as a Christian that is never ending because death leads to life. And on the inside of the circle was birthstones for me, my father (who was already in Heaven), my Mother (who went to Heaven 5 days after my 50th birthday), my husband, and my son. Since all of us are Christians we will be together again one day. Since then we have added my daughter-in-law and 2 granddaughters. I wear it everyday and think of how special it is every time I see it or pick it up to put on.

  75. Best gift I have ever been given was my babies. But, one of my favorite crafty gifts was a chair from my in-laws that was hand-painted. It’s adorable and my kiddos love it. 🙂

  78. The best gift I ever received was from my grandmother. She gave me all of my favorite recipes of hers, hand written and placed into a super cute recipe box. I laminated them all so they will last forever and I’ll always be able to look at her handwriting.

  79. I have been lucky. The best gift I get is seeing faces of my children when I see their dreams and wishes come true. What more could a mom ask for.
