800 "Likes" Thank-You Giveaway Celebration!

GIVEAWAY CLOSED

Well we did it folks!
800+ "Likes" on Facebook!
As promised, I am ready to do another giveaway!
This is actually not a Facebook "Likes" giveaway...but more of a THANK-YOU CELEBRATION from me to you.
If it weren't for all of you wonderful moms, dads, kids, and fellow bakers encouraging me...I would have probably given up on baking and decorating, like so many other hobbies I've started.  But thanks to all of your encouraging comments, support, love, AND ORDERS...I've continued my journey and am still seeking to learn more every day!
So I want to say, TO EACH OF YOU...
THANK-YOU from the very bottom of my heart!
And to celebrate, I want to give you the chance to win a little something.
This is just a simple giveaway...just a few things I've been picking up to say thanks and possibly make someone's day a little brighter.  I know giveaways ALWAYS make my day brighter...no matter WHAT I win!  So without further ado...here goes!
First item in the bundle...

A Wilton Candy/Cookie Mold.
I had never seen these.
This mold is for covering your favorite cookie in a candy melt, making a cute candy dipped cookie treat!  How cool is that?  Perfect for parties, showers, celebrations, or just a special treat for your kids!

Next up is...
An Easter Pretzel Mold from Wilton.
I just LOVE the sweet/salty taste of coated pretzels!
I've always dipped my own pretzels, but how cute is this?
EASTER pretzels!
What kid (or adult) won't go ga-ga for this!
Well, we've covered the candy melt/mold area...
Now let's move on to cookie making!
Next in the bundle is two Easter cookie cutters.
One egg...one cross.
Ya gotta have sugar cookies for Easter!
The next item isn't really a baking item...
Although, you might need them "after" you get done eating to wipe your hands on!
This is a purse size package of Easter "naps".
The package says "hankies"...so when I first picked them up, I thought they were purse sized tissues.  But after further examining them, they look quite thick...more like a napkin...which is why I've been calling them "naps".
I say use them or call them whatever you want.
It never hurts to have extra napkins and/or tissues in your purse for emergencies...and these are so dang cute!
Next up...
Two spools of Easter ribbon!
Perfect for tying up all your Easter goodie bags full of cookies and treats!
I have to appologize for my poor quality photos.
I wish these hadn't turned out so poorly.
This is where you can all leave messages all over my baking page BEGGING my husband to buy me a new camera!  Hahaha!
And last of all...
One package of jellybean cupcake liners!
Perfect for doing all your Easter baking in.
Well...that wraps up this giveaway!
I hope you like all the goodies!
