Win a Merry Skullmass with SuperVery!

December 8th, 2009

We’ve written about the lovely Sue Tyler and her gorgeous jewellery before, but with Christmas coming up, we thought it might be a good idea to talk about her again. In fact, it’s really excellent timing because all this week she’s offering items at super special prices, and to celebrate, we’ve got one of
her gorgeous sugar skull necklaces to give away!

To make this a happy holiday for everyone, if you want to win it, we’ll make it real simple. Just leave us a comment before December 15 telling us what you’d like to see more of on PPP next year, and we’ll draw the winner that day so you’ll get your skull in time for Xmas.

And of course, if you want to buy someone something lovely, you can get your hands on Sue’s amazing creations (Unicorns! Rabbits! Trees!) on Felt or Etsy. We really think you should.

Win some Durvillea Wine – just think seaweed

December 2nd, 2009

We recently profiled Meg and her family’s wine label Durvillea. It’s summer time and holiday season and no doubt you’re going to be going to parties or hosting them yourself sometime soon and we reckon that Durvillea is a wonderful wine to accompany those activities (or even to sit inside drinking by yourself when it’s raining. But maybe that’s just me). So, exciting news! Those lovely Durvillea ladies want you to win some to make holiday entertaining easier!

Because Durvillea is a seaweed, we thought it would be great if you came up with an outfit inspired by seaweed. You can assemble a fantasy one on Polyvore, dress yourself up and take a photo, or draw a picture – we don’t mind how you enter as long as you do it! You’ve got until December 12 to get your entry into our comments section. The best submission will be chosen by a panel of experts and will win a mixed half case of lovely Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Grigio. Two other entries will be drawn at random to win a consolation bottle.

To inspire you, here are the Polyvore sets that Amy and I put together. So get creating, because this wine is delicious and I’m tempted to keep it all to myself – but I won’t… » Read more: Win some Durvillea Wine – just think seaweed

Pretty Pretty Secret Santas?

November 24th, 2009

Hi lovelies,

I reckon that we’ve all got different ideas about what’s pretty but we also have a lot in common and we all have ideas about what’s nice. How would you all like to play Secret Santa to each other? I’m thinking it would be swell to receive a lovely gift in the mail and to send one out to someone you haven’t met before. The way it would work is that you’d leave a comment here saying you’re committed to playing nicely and to buying something lovely for around $10-$15 for another lovely reader and that you promise to send them the gift before Xmas. In return, your name would be secretly assigned to someone else who would send you something lovely. I love gift-buying and while I’m financially in big doo doo right now, I could still stretch to that amount of money – or make something homemade and charming. Who’s with me? I’ll take names until Dec 1 when I’ll email you all for addresses and assign you someone else to play with. This is only open to NZers, sorry because of postage costs and shipping delays and all that stuff.
