Happy New Year!

Posted by Administrator on 1/2/2012
Happy New Year!  Bring on 2012 ...
 
Here are the latest winners from our 'fashion show' contest....
 
Previous winners:
 
 
 
 
 
Most Recent Round:
 
 
Keep up the participation!  We love it!  :)  (and it increases the $ for everyone!).
 
What are we doing?
 
Start by reading this...
 
Want to win some MN Cash? Then enter our "state of style" on Facebook and share your beautiful self with us during our fashion weekends (entry period is Friday to Sunday, bi-weekly).
 
Otherwise known as a "MN Fashion Show", these bi-weekly contest require two amazing, strong, unique, and beautiful things: YOU and MOMMY NECKLACES.
 
To Play? Simple: We post a theme. You have 3 day window to upload your picture ( = while keeping the theme in mind. It may be subjective, but not so far off-the-wall it doesn't even make sense to most people viewing it) to Facebook. We then gather the enteries and select the winner.
 
How do we select the winners?  Up to MN! We may have a guest judge, staff selection, or complete randomness. And, the more who play, the more who can win.
 
To be Fair?  You can only win once every six month period.  However, the roll-over happens in January and July of each year, on the 1st.  So if you win late December, you can start entering sooner than later.  ;)
 
To keep it Going?  Please encourage others to post, comment on their pictures, and participate yourself.  We need the participation to keep this going.  Better yet, gift a MN to a friend and tell them to start playing a long in our fashion weekends! 
 
Going and Going = More $?  The more who play.  The more who win:
1-14 participants:      1 $25.00 Winner
15-29 participants:    2 $25.00 Winners
30-39 participants:    3 $25.00 Winners
40+ participants:      6 $25.00 Winners (whoa.)
 
What do you Win?  MN cash, of course.  (a code redeemable on the MN website)
 
Rules and More?
  • You may post up to 2 pictures for each theme week. (theme is subjective, but must be taken in some consideration)
  • Enter 1 of those pictures on Twitter, and we'll give you an additional entry.  You must tweet your entry and tag @MommyNecklaces.  ("Look at me and my hot self wearing my @MommyNecklaces today.")  ;)  *grin*
  • Win once, but please play every time you can. (once every 6 months, you can win)
  • Pictures must be clear and well-lit. (grainy pictures aren't that great either)
  • Pictures must show your MN clearly and at least 60% of it.  (aka a small 3-inch section doesn't count)
  • You must be wearing your MN (not your child, pet, or some other inanimate object).  ;)
  • But, your face does not have to be in the picture.  If you're shy, that is ok!
  • MN reserves the right to add to these rules as we grow and learn through this process.  (questions or suggestions, please ask or comment)
Now, the theme and entry period...
 
 
and then, post here on Facebook
 

Also, extra points for tweeting (@MommyNecklaces) your entry (if the round is a 'random winner' round, we will give you extra enteries into the drawing - never know though - meaning random round or judged round...).

Last blog 'post-commenter-winner' of 12 (obvious reason) Reward Points: Britta McNish (a random winner for a pool of the people who comment on this blog post.  We giveaway reward points after every blog post we make.  Giving them away to YOU.  All you have to do is comment on the newest blog post, like this one here!). 

So, how was your holiday season?  Did it go by fast?  Are you ready for 2012?  Do you have a choice?  Anyone ready for routine again?

Thanks again for an amazing 2011.... so ready for 2012!

Love,

Ohhh this one is going to be neat! I can't wait to see all the posts, and try and figure out how I'm going to do mine!

Congratulations to the winners!
Lauren Crumb Date 1/2/2012 9:09:52 PM
Our holidays aren't over yet! We have one Christmas left to do. :) I am ready to settle back into some semblance of normal again, that is for sure! Can't wait to see what 2012 brings!
stacy Date 1/2/2012 9:11:02 PM
Getting back to the grind tomorrow. Husband has been off and is going back to work. I'm thinking my 4yo is not going to take it too well, but it will be nice to get back to our normal schedule. Now to see if I have a picture for the contest already...
amanda gilbert Date 1/2/2012 9:11:03 PM
My holiday season was great because I got to see my two nieces and sister who live in another state, and they got to see my little one. His first 'real' Christmas. I am ready for 2012 to be here as I hope it is a year with less doctors in it for my son's health issues. We are waiting for a few more follow up appointments and are finally hoping to be in the clear after that! That will be the most amazing gift of all to know that he has finally overcome all his health issues!
Bobi Jo Jostes Date 1/2/2012 9:11:45 PM
I am ready for our addition to be done and livable...this is the year for that!!!
Tiffany H. Date 1/2/2012 9:11:48 PM
So excited! I can't believe its 2012 already. I am loving that my classes don't start until next week and the kids go to school tomorrow! :)
Liz Date 1/2/2012 9:13:14 PM

Love the quote you picked for Round 6! Oleg Cassini was an amazing designer. I was proud to wear a Jackie O-esque Oleg gown on my own wedding day. Love! My Holidays were wonderful and we are looking forward to the coming year and what it may bring for our family. =)
amanda bushnell Date 1/2/2012 9:23:28 PM

Tabitha Date 1/2/2012 9:30:37 PM

Holidays were great but VERY ready to get back to our regular schedule!
Jodi G. Date 1/2/2012 9:38:52 PM
Oh! my this round has me puzzled :) I'll have to think about this one ... it's always so much fun to see all the entries (and it's loads of fun to enter too :D)!!!
zebe Date 1/2/2012 9:40:53 PM
I am so NOT a fashionista. This one is going to be tricky. Also, is there a place to read the quotes in a different font? For some reason my eyes really don't like the script you've been using so I have a hard time catching all the words.
Meredith Lester Date 1/2/2012 9:41:34 PM
Congrats ladies! Can't wait for the spring line!
Lauren Davison Date 1/2/2012 9:51:32 PM
I'm so excited for this new year! I love the feeling of a fresh start!
Heidi Thomas Date 1/2/2012 9:53:38 PM
My Christmas was great, but my girls were definitely ready for routine again! Today was the first day back at daycare for them and they both were very excited!
Lisa Sweeney Date 1/2/2012 10:07:44 PM
Not quite ready for my hubbie to go back to work tomorrow... it was so nice to have him home for the holidays!!
Laura Duane Date 1/2/2012 10:18:40 PM
Christmas was good...among other things, I got the MN I've been drooling over, plus a gift card for another one! Definitely looking forward to 2012, too--we're building a house, and will hopefully be moving in in March or April!
Bree Date 1/2/2012 10:21:18 PM
Still on holiday and not at all ready to start thinking about the new year.
Melanie S Date 1/2/2012 10:26:05 PM
I had heard about your contests but I think this time I will enter and try to win some MN cash! Good luck to all who participates. Happy new year Raelynn and all the Mommy necklace crew!
Janet Phillips Date 1/2/2012 10:33:14 PM
holidays were great!! the kids got spoiled and then some! i was not and still am not ready for hubs to go back to work today...2012 bring it! im going to kick my butt into gear and work on getting this baby weight off--also my goal is to spend more quality time with my son
Brieana VB Date 1/2/2012 10:44:52 PM
Our Holidays were relaxing and simple this year. Both my son and I were sick through Christmas and New Year's so we kept it all low key. But we have so much to look forward to, I am 5 months pregnant and we find out if we are excepting a boy or girl in just a few days! This is going to be another great year! And of course this means more MNs foe the new little one <3
Amanda Grant Date 1/2/2012 11:06:02 PM
This one shall be interesting!!!!!!!
Britta McNish Date 1/2/2012 11:08:04 PM
Thank you! :D As for starting the routine again, I was dragging my feet about having to take the kids places again, but now that it's here, I know that having a routine is the best thing for all of us. I'm looking forward to seeing the new Spring line for MN! I think 2012 is going to be a great year! :D
Jodi McCord Date 1/2/2012 11:13:26 PM
Ready for routine after six Christmas celebrations!
Gina Hiskes Date 1/3/2012 2:00:13 AM
Thank you so much ladies! For ALL that you do. Can't wait to see the new Spring line, the Fall/Winter line is gorgeous!
Allison Zimmerman Date 1/3/2012 7:32:16 AM
Christmas and New Years were great! Missed the MN family though! This is stressweek #3 for me. My sons first birthday and party are this weekend. Cheers to my holidays *almost* being over, and celebrating my little man's first year <3
Rachel Kingma Date 1/3/2012 10:06:38 AM
Thanks so much, Raelynn! These contests are such fun! Happy New Year to all of you!
Audra Dwyer Date 1/3/2012 11:23:20 AM
Congrats to the winners! I can't believe it is 2012 already! My little boy is going to be a year old in a few days. Can't believe it!
Lisa A Date 1/3/2012 12:26:32 PM
SO excited to be able to participate in the fun contests again!!! Eeeeek!!!! It was hard to get into the Christmas spirit this year with these unseasonably warm temps here in the Midwest. It feels weird not having any snow at all this year after the blizzards we've had the last couple! I'll take a short winter anytime though. Now we're ready and looking ahead to spring! :)
Rachel Nappi Singh Date 1/3/2012 1:54:21 PM
Our holiday was amazing! Our 2 year old son really got into Christmas this year, and next year we will have another little bundle of joy to celebrate! :) Yay for 2012!
Megan McGhee Date 1/4/2012 2:06:46 AM
Thanks for this great contest! 2011 went by super fast. Looking forward to 2012...lots of exciting things happening for my family!
Dana Kaniasty Date 1/4/2012 11:18:50 AM
Christmas was great! But New Years was the tummy bug going around here in Wisconsin! So that means 2012 can only get better!!!
Amy B. Date 1/4/2012 1:48:27 PM
We had a relaxing holiday--for the very first time, my husband was off the entire time so we enjoyed a lot of family time and we were also available to help out other family and friends whose loved ones are in the hostpital (watching their children). We are ready for 2012, but that means everyone is a year older...and growing up so fast.
Tracy Sharp Date 1/4/2012 3:06:07 PM
I'm ready for the big Spring reveal!
tamara strecker Date 1/4/2012 9:17:03 PM

Kat Torcasio Date 1/5/2012 1:13:08 AM
My holiday season was lovely. My little girl's first and most likely my mum's last, so it will hold an extra special memory for me. I'm back at work in 3 weeks, so definitely not ready for work and routines, but more than ready to get ever closer to the new pretties you'll release! :) Hope you all had a lovely break.
Christine Date 1/5/2012 3:12:49 AM
My first ever MN just arrived. (Hooray). Now to think up an entry......
Shannon Jolly Date 1/9/2012 1:05:44 PM
Definitely ready for this year! So many possibilities. I'm hoping we are "blessed" in a little yet big way this year ;).
