GIVEAWAY: 2-Month Subscription to fair ivy


I have a confession to make. With all the crafting I do here in Prudent Baby, you might think that my friends and family are the lucky recipients of thoughtful handmade gifts. You might even thing that I package them fancily and send them on time. Well you would be wrong on all counts. It's the king of clichés but all my quality gift-giving went out the window when I had kids. Dreadful.

My New Year's resolution this year was even to be better about the birthday gifts. I have NOT had ONE success. So imagine my delight when I was introduced to fair ivy. It's time to call in the professionals to rescue this deadbeat gift-giver!

Owner Lucy Fairweather says...

fair ivy was created in 2009 after a realization that so little of what we receive in the mail is a surprise anymore.  The only real mail that comes to the door is usually bills, Amazon packages, or junk mail!   Where's the fun in that?

fair ivy is a unique subscription service—we send awesome, cute, mystery packages to our customers once a month.  A large portion of the items are handmade, and our packages are additionally as eco-friendly as possible, using crinkle paper instead of styrofoam to protect all of the exciting goodies!   You never know what you are going to receive, but you always know it is going to be wonderful.  There are packages for everyone—teens, women, men and even pets!


You can even buy packages to start sending in the future—so you can take care of all your birthday and Christmas shopping early!

Or maybe you are a great gift giver but SOMEONE YOU KNOW is not. Maybe an adult male who lives in your home? Time for a subtle hint? Save him from wandering the mall lost and confused and save you from faking a smile when you open a neon bar sign.

And if all this talk of sweet little surprises has you wanting more. Check out fair ivy's surprise blog: The Surpriseaholic, a great place for people to randomly win handmade surprises.

I bet you want to know how to enter to win a free two month subscription...

To enter for the chance to win, visit fair ivy and peruse their surprise package subscriptions. Tell us if you would pick the fair ivy or the fun ivy if you won and who would get it! I'd pick the fair ivy and I'd give it to... um, me. So much for improving my gift-giving status.

And since you know we always love to give extra entries, "like" fair ivy on facebook and leave a second comment letting us know. You'll be glad you did, there are so many great gift ideas!

If you share this giveaway on Facebook, Twitter or Stumble Upon, leave a comment for each as an additional entry.

And also, feel free to come back every day! Comments will close Monday, June 13th at 11:59. Winner will have 5 days to contact us before prize is awarded to a new winner.

I would pick the fun Ivy, and send it to my sister who lives 1200 Km away from me and I only get to see once a year.
