Rach's 2nd ROYGBIV Holiday Giveaway

Yuuuuuuuuuuup, it's back. I know. I just had a giveaway, but that one was kind of ... unplanned? But I had so much fun running this last year that I knew I wanted to do it again.

Here are the polishes you get to take home:



(L-R)
Red: Essie Leading Lady
Orange: Orly Flicker
Yellow (gold): Zoya Ziv
Green: Piggy Polish Jingle, Belle
Blue: China Glaze Blue Bells Ring
Indigo: OPI Tomorrow Never Dies
Violet: Color Club Glitter Wonderland

And some other goodies ...

  • one hand-knit scarf using Lion Brand Jiffy yarn in ... well, it's either Caffe or Espresso (I threw the label away. DERP.)
  • one Dolfin chocolate bar in my favorite masala flavor. You know, to give you a break from all the peppermint and gingerbread
  • one pack of my favorite TRIM nail sticks
  • assorted holiday cards in case you're late for this year (or need some for next year)
  • assorted teas
  • (not pictured) two sheets of white felt for polish removal

... and one really awesome prize that I don't have a picture of because YOU get to choose it. YES.

Remember the holiday movies I blogged about last year? This year, my ROYGBIV Holiday winner will win ONE of those movies on DVD. You must choose one movie from this list:



  1. "While You Were Sleeping" (1995, dir. Jon Turteltaub)
  2. "Joyeux Noel" (2005, dir. Christian Carion)
  3. "Sugar & Spice" (2001, dir. Francine McDougall)
  4. "Eastern Promises" (2007, dir. David Cronenberg)
  5. "About a Boy" (2002, dirs. Chris Weitz and Paul Weitz)
  6. "In Bruges" (2008, dir. Martin McDonagh)
  7. "Die Hard" (1988, dir. John McTiernan)

RULES
  1. You must be a U.S. resident and public GFC follower. 
  2. This giveaway is open until Saturday, Dec. 15 at 11:59 p.m. EST. I will announce the randomly-selected winner on Sunday, Dec. 16. The winner will have 24 hours to contact me to claim the prize; a new winner will be selected if that person does not e-mail me.

  4. Get hype. (Wellllllll ...)

    EDITED TO ADD: I modified the Rafflecopter widget so that you can type in the name of the movie you would like to win. If you entered earlier today, please make sure you fill out that part, or your entries won't count! My apologies. I will try to e-mail you later when I get some more time.
Thank you, good luck, and happy holidays! :)

  2. For my money, Die Hard is the greatest Christmas movie of all time. Alan Rickman as Hans Gruber? Changed. My. Life. ^_^

    This is such an amazingly generous giveaway, Rach! Can't enter, but I'm totally wowed.

  5. OOh - I have not seen Eastern Promises and want to! I think About A Boy was really a good movie that I totally missed hearing anything about when it was out (not unusual as I don't have a movie theater where I live - have to drive 30+ miles up the coast to get to one)...nice 'gift' away! I so want Ziv - did not order it when I did a Zoya order - thought I would not like it and now I am loving it in every photo I see!!! It's a gotta have for me I think...chi tea - wonderful...you put some fun thought into this one.

    No, that's a lie, I saw About a Boy. I think. I definitely read the book.

    My favorite holiday movie is anything with the Muppets.
