UPDATE, May 8, 2008 - 12:01am --> The Contest is now over! Thank you to all the contestants!
Yes, babies, Mommy's having her VERY FIRST contest. And it's going to be an easy one (for the participants at least). Unfortunately it's going to be a QUICK one too, so I can have the prize out for the winner before or as close to Mother's Day as possible!
This contest is in honor of Mother's day. If you are a regular enough reader, you might know that my mom is one of my absolute best friends, and she's been on a long hard road since August 2004. I want to honor her with this contest.
Here's the requirements:
1. On or before May 7th, 2008, email me (angelgal2876 at gmail dot com) your favorite memory of your mom. This is where it can get interesting---your story doesn't have to be about your birth mom. If you are adopted, make it about your adopted mom. If your mom is gone, but your dad filled in the space wonderfully, tell me about him. If someone stepped in at some point during your adult life and filled in the role of mother for you, let me know about them.
2. In order to keep your contact information secure and give you another chance at winning a jar candle, please go to my
candle biz site and fill in the contest drawing form. It's not a must, but it's HIGHLY ENCOURAGED. Your information will be kept confidential. Feel free to browse
my site some too
The only people ineligible for this contest are those directly related to the judges or myself.
Now, as for what you will win...
1st prize - one 16oz jar candle from my stash (I will email you with the choices)
2nd and 3rd prizes - 6 votives from my stash
The judges:
The great Lou, over on
LouCeel.
My WONDERFUL sponsor for the candle biz, Mary Leedy at
Success By Candlelight Coach.
Now, hurry up and get your submissions in! I can't wait to hear about YOUR mom!!!
P.S. There will be one for dad starting just after Mother's Day, too! That one will run much longer!!! Promise!
