We went downtown today to get some supplies for our Day of the Dead altar, and I thought it would be fun to do a giveaway... so I put together a small Día de los Muertos' altar kit!!
This is what you can win:
(I apologize for the bad pics, it was dark when we got home and I haven't been able to install my photo editing software!)
1. Sugar Skulls made in a local bakery.
2. A paper Catrina decorative doll.
3. A Papel Picado banner, handmade by local artists.
4. A paper Sugar Skull garland.
5. A papier mache box, painted by me.
And I'll probably throw some more handmade goodies in there ;)
These are just some basic deco pieces for your altar but you can use them for craft projects as well... Glue one of those papel picado rectangles to a blank card and you have a pretty and unique greeting card!
Here are the rules:
1. Comment on this post (1 entry)
2. Follow my blog (1 entry)
3. Post about the giveaway on your blog (1 entry)
Please leave a comment for each entry. The giveaway will be closed this Thursday, October 28 at noon (PST). I will announce the winner that same day around 1 pm so I can ship it right away and you can get it on time for Día de los Muertos!
It's my first giveaway ever so I'm a little nervous I'll have a little turnout, so please participate!! If this one works out well, I'll have more giveaways in the future!!
Buena Suerte!!

Hey MJ! What an awesome giveaway! As usual, your art stands out as the most awesome thing here, but I do love me some papel picado :)
ReplyDeleteJust so you know, I also tweeted (on Twitter), about your giveaway. I know you're not on there (you should be!!!) but I wanted to give you a little exposure - and also, I know a lot of my Twitter friends will want to enter! (I didn't tweet as an extra entry - just wanted to share it with others!)

i love la catrina. i have one in my house and i think people think i'm wiccan or something :/
ReplyDeletei hope to find some Dia decor tomorrow while out shopping with my little one, but there is not a great Hispanic community here in south central MA, so I am exploring online. Thanks for the pics, maybe we'll paint our own stuff tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful giveaway! I collect catrinas, but they aren't easy to find here in WI. I'd love to win :)
