Giveaway: Luck of the Irish

By Mavis Butterfield on -

UPDATE: This Giveaway is now closed.

Top of the morning to you. Are you feeling lucky? 🙂 

With St. Patrick’s Day right around the corner I thought it would be fun to do an Irish themed giveaway for March that includes a few of my favorite things. 

Irish steel cut oats, Irish tea, a handmade bowl and mug set and of course a little Irish music to play in the background as you go about your day. 

A few weeks ago I spotted these adorable bird bowls on Etsy and asked Katerina {of CocoonHMS on Etsy} if she would personalize a few sets for me by adding a lucky four leaf clover to the bowls and the word “lucky” stamped on both the bowls and mugs.

Katerina hand built both the mugs and bowls {she didn’t use potter’s wheel} and her attention to detail is just amazing. I love how each piece is a little different and unqiue. 

And now it’s time for a giveaway!

Two lucky people will each win:

Because seriously, who wouldn’t want to start their day off with a bit of luck on their side? 

All you have to do to enter this giveaway is leave some sort of comment below with the word “lucky” in it. 🙂 That’s it. That’s all you’ve got to do. 

Life, it’s pretty complicated sometimes, so I like to keep things simple around here.

Rules:

1 entry per person/ip address. If you cheat, you will totally be disqualified. {Comments may take an hour or two to be cleared, so please be patient}.

This giveaway ends Friday, March 11th @8 pm EST and the winner will be announced on Saturday, March 12th. You will be notified via email and have 48 hours to claim your prize. If you do not claim your prize within 48 hours, the prize will be forfeited and given to a random person in town. 

I will ship this prize anywhere. 🙂

Good Luck! I hope you win!

    By the luck of the Irish, I seem to be the first to comment. Oh, to be lucky enough to start the day with reminders of my Irish grandma, whom I only know thru the memories of older siblings.
    I’ll look for a four leaf clover today.
    A dear, 103 year old friend, told me to put potatoes in a window on 3/17 so they’ll be ready to plant the earliest time possible and then enjoy fresh potatoes in July.

    Lucky is what I named a baby bird living in my yard last summer. After a few days of watching his parents feed him I realized he was much larger then the parents.

    To be sure, we are ALL lucky to have you, Mavis.
    “Luck is the phenomenon and belief that defines the experience of notably positive, negative, or improbable events. The naturalistic interpretation is that positive and negative events may happen at any time, both due to random and non-random natural and artificial processes, and that even improbable events can happen by random chance. In this view, the epithet “lucky” or “unlucky” is a descriptive label that refers to an event’s positivity, negativity, or improbability.”

    I’m feeling pretty lucky today. Two weeks ago my laptop died… wouldn’t turn on just gave me terrifying messages about a missing boot disk. I was pretty sure wither a hefty repair bill or a new laptop was in my future. But my tech guy said, “No biggie. I’ll just reinstall the operating system and you’ll be all set.” That sounded expensive… nope, not at all. $105 and a little over a week was all it took to get me up and running and today’s my first day back online. Thanks for the offering such a great giveaway!

    Hopefully I will be lucky for the first time in Mavis’ giveaway. I am British and love Irish Oatmeal and everything else in that basket. Other than that I am lucky to be alive and mostly in good health except for a painful hip.

    I feel LUCKY and blessed that my 14 year old autistic son with learning difficulties is now in a school that can meet his needs.

    I feel LUCKY that after years of thinking he was not smart he now realizes that he just needed work to be modified and to be taught in another way with lots of hands on activities.

    I feel LUCKY that he has a place that accepts his challenges and embraces his strengths.

    I feel UNLUCKY that unfortunately his new school is 67 miles each way from our house.

    I feel LUCKY that he has things to keep him occupied and time to sleep on his extended commute time.

    I feel LUCKY that his first day of his new school was 2-22-22. It felt like a perfect start to what hopefully will continue to be an excellent fit for his complex learning and sensory needs.

Hope to live a few more years so I can enjoy my six adorable great grand children. Mavis, I love your blog! When I was younger, I was always remodeling my house. My poor husband never knew what to expect when he got home from work.

    I am feeling lucky on so many levels–blessed I call it. I just got home from a month in the Caribbean and so missed much of the New England weather. Also, I just noticed the end date for the give away , March 11. This made me reflect on how lucky I am to have my Prince Charming grandson born on March 11, 2018. I am so lucky to have him living close by here in Maine. He makes me happy every day.

    I used to read your blog and really enjoyed it – the photos are fantastic, the content was right up my alley. However, I went back to school, and alas, free time to read went out the window. How LUCKY I am that years later I found my way back to you. Can’t wait to read the zillions of posts that I have missed!

    I have not been feeling very lucky lately. I got the flu and have had to cancel a bunch of events, including rescheduling my daughter’s birthday party. Maybe this’ll be my turning point!

  488. andrea d says

    Is it weird that I am finding this your most difficult giveaway to enter? Finding a way to use lucky in a sentence is harder than I thought- I think it’s because I’ve been taught to see things as blessings (gifts) instead of luck (by chance). But no matter which word is used the same feelings abound, my heart is full knowing how ‘lucky’ I am to have all that I need and so many things I desire- family, friends, home, food, etc.

  494. Staci W says

    Thanks for the chance to win this amazing Irish set. If I’m lucky, I just might win. 🙂
