My Favorite Things Holiday Giveaway

**This giveaway is now closed and the winner has been announced here. Thank you everyone who entered!**

I’m sure many of us in the States are getting ready for a few days of thanks aka pigging out on turkey, stuffing, sweet potaters and more. My Chinese mom usually substitutes tasty duck for turkey, but I found out she has ambitiously purchased a big bird this y to attempt a traditional Thanksgiving. Darn! I like my Asian duck.

Anyways, I wanted to do a giveaway this week as a tiny way to show my gratitude to all of you for reading and supporting this blog. When I started blogging a little over a year ago, inspired by Alterations Needed, never did I imagine the petite online community would blossom to where it is now (there were ~3 of us back then!). And I sure did not think I would end up making so many friends who share honest opinions, sweet comments, and useful recommendations. So thank you all very much.

Over this year I’ve been collecting duplicates of some things that I’ve tried & liked, to share with a lucky reader. I’m not affiliated with any of the below brands; everything was purchased by me. The prize package includes:

1. Rock & Republic pressed blush in Tease (a mauve-pink; my absolutely fave shade)
2. Shu Uemura eylash curler
3. J.Crew “olive moss” leather skinny belt in your choice of S or M (and I can punch extra holes for you)
4. J.Crew flower hair elastic (I have this in black and made it into a pin)
5. Revlon polish in “Vixen” (love, love this color) and 6. Revlon “No Chip” topcoat
7. N.Y.C. liquid eye liner in black and 8. a pair of ELF falsies

Rules:
– Open internationally to public followers of ExtraPetite.com
– Ends midnight EST on December 12, 2010 and a winner will be drawn at random
– Winner will have 72 hours to claim her prize after announcement

    i love your blog, and i would so love to enter this contest, I am alone and no family ect, so to win this would be so awesome as i havent gotton a christmas present or birthday present in 10 years, (Not a lie either , only a truth) so my user name is mypinkrainbow and one of my favorite things is stationary, as I love to write letters and love to get them also , the reason they are my favorite things is 2 years ago my house burned down, and i was trapped in it as I was trying to rescue my little shitzue doggy who was terrified and ran down to the bsement she was so scared and i could not get her to come up the stares , and my heart was broken, but after I struggled i was able to get out by walking through the fire and I got burns on my legs , but i made it out of the house and just as there was a backdraft i was flung into the middle of the street, but alive, and the whole house was burned , and my letters and photos from child hood until then were destroyed and they can never be brought back , loosing my dog was hard enough but not even being able to have the pictures and letters from loved ones friends and such was a total heart breaker for me I did not even have a pair of shoes as they burned off of me and no cloths except what i was wearing, , people in our world take so much for granted, and since my house fire , ( was started due to a dell xps computer and video is on my you tube channel so proof i am not lying) (http://www.youtube.com/mypinkrainbow)
    and do not appreciate the little things in life, for example cards your grandma sent you when you were 12 for your birthday .. I miss them so very much , i miss just getting a prezzie which i havent gotton in so long, I dont have any family every one has passed away and i am divorced not dating any one and my 2 best friends are passed away also, so I wish you a wonderful holiday and may all your christmas wishes come true. I would be so appreciative to win this giveaway and believe me you would get a real thank you note written on pretty paper made by me and a pretty envelope made by me too.. thanks for haveing a giveaway
    sincere regards

    I lalalalalove the Urban Decay Naked Palette. I don't have it right now so I tried using it from my friend's and it has the best colors ever. I don't wear bright or daring colors so this palette is the best for me since it only contains neutrals. I've read online that they're gonna get a new shipment soon so I can't wait to grab onto one! You should too 🙂
