The Great Hillbilly Giveaway of 2008!

Contest is OVER! We Have a Winner! Click here for more info!

Robin and Auntie Di were hitting the 'mash' pretty heavy one night when they overlapped into each others' work space.
Suddenly Robin shouted "Hey! You put your candle on my coaster!", Di yelled back "Naw! You put your coaster under my candle!". They both looked at each other and said "Hey, that looks pretty darn special!"

That first idea was a pretty good one but the next idea - not so bright. They've decided to give away this adorable combination to one lucky person who is willing to play their game:



"Hillybilly Homebrew"


1) Go to Nothinglikeit's ETSY store and find your most favorite item, come back to THIS blog and post a comment here about it on this post!

2) Go to Nothinglikeit's BLOG and follow the directions on her "The Great Hillbilly Giveaway of 2008!" blog post.

3) Want to DOUBLE your chances of winning? Also suggest on BOTH blogs a new candle/coaster combination you think would be cool!

You have to go to both blogs and complete the steps to qualify for this give away! Our cousin Billy-Bob can READ and COUNT so he is keepin tabs on you guys!

** The drawing will be determined by a random number generator (not Billy-Bob) on September 19th at 10:00 EST.

Y'all get busy now!

** Offer open to US addresses ONLY - We'd like to ship to the whole wide world but there's only $5 in our piggy bank and the whiskey still hasn't turned a profit yet *

I'm not Nemo - the Clown Fish Critter Coaster with the Fuzzy Navel candle since they are both orange in color and my daughter Loves clown fish after the one that your fish is not named after.


I do really like the little bat that hangs from the coffee cup. :))

My favorite item from her shot changes daily! My fav today is the Death by Chocolate the Grim Reaper Mini Critter Magnet. I love how in the picture he is holding a "kiss". He is the "kiss" of death!! Great for Halloween!

For my bonus entry I suggest that Robin make a bug coaster. Like and ant or something with a lot of legs sticking out. It would look like the person used their cup to squish the bug!

So a combo that would be awsome, why fresh cut grass candle with a green Moo caster (Since they eat grass) or a lawnmower coaster!

How fun NOTHINGLIKEIT's shop is!!! I love the SEASONAL IMPS. Each is adorable and so unique:) The pumpkins(pumpkin coaster and the useless pumpkin) are adorable too.

I would match the Pumpkin Coaster with the Basil and Herbs candle and add the Pumkin Spice earrings as a special edition set!

I love NTL's death by chocolate piece--it rocks!

i think another good cancle coaster combo (besides the one i mentioned on her blog) would be to have a flattened reindeer with a red or red and white striped candle--hopefully ne that smelled christmas-y (pine, maybe? orange and cloves?)

:-) MaryLou said...

I've already chosen some favorites from Nothinglikeit's shop... and I'm patiently waiting till she returns from vacation so she can make them for me.

But then she added these new things, and I love the Mini Boo!

For a combo, how about the Jamaica Me Crazy candle with a Rasta dude squashed underneath. :-)

I love the mad santa mug - My friend's favourite film is Bad santa - he would love it. What a funny, unique site.

Hi,

loving the Nemo the flat vampire.and Gander the flat elf.

Anonymous said...

My combo is the Red the flat doggie coaster and the Mackintosh apple candle.

Anonymous said...

My idea for the coaster set is the Gander the flat elf with the Lime and Tequila candle - he's flat out from drinking the stuff.

davidjnorris@ntlworld.com

cathyhall said...

My idea is the I'm not nemo fish coaster with the Fuzzy navel candle.

Thanks for the contest.

I love the Rudolph the Flat Christmas Critter coaster. I may buy a set of those for my MIL for Christmas.

Kimberly said...

I LOVE the turkey and the Rudolph the Reindeer ones.

How about a possum or racoom and a candle and call it "Road Kill". LOL!!!! Not sure what you can make the candle smell like though that won't be overly GROSS! LOL! Unless you actually do it as a gross smell and sell it for more of a gag gift.

Thanks for a fun giveaway!

Stephanie Jackson said...

I love Nemo the bat, he's awesome.

Oh, for a candle/coaster set. How about something for the guys.
Like a Stetson cologne candle and a cowboy hat coaster.
Or a beer scented candle with a beer mug coaster.

Anonymous said...

Ok, these are just so funny & fun! I love the I'm Not Nemo coaster LOL

I think that would go perfectly with some sort of ocean scent candle :)

step 2. (because i started from nothinglikeit's blog). my fav item is the gobble gobble flat turkey coaster. nothing beats thinly sliced deli meats.

w said...

step 3. to increase my chances. i think the croak frog coaster and the tequila lime candle would go great together. because the frog obviously had too much tequila.

seriously. this is the hardest giveaway i've ever entered. billybob must be real good.

Unknown said...

I love the glueck he is too cute

Unknown said...

To Increase my odds I reckon
I would say for a new combo try white tea and hawaiin gingerI always thought itd be lovely together

Lucky Girl said...

The Rudolph Coaster is my favorite. At least for today--there are so many things there I want!

Lucky Girl said...

Is it okay if the combo I want to suggest includes something that's not in one of the shops? I'd really like to see a Groovy Patchouli candle on a flat bellbottom-wearing hippee coaster.

trishia said...

Oh my goodness- I have the PERFECT idea for a coaster/candle combo. I am a Girl Scout leader, and it is nearly impossible to find a good gs theme gift for the ladies at our council office. Those women work their butts off for the girls with little recognition. So, a THIN MINT scented candle on a (are you ready?) CRUSHED BOY SCOUT coaster! :) :) :)

Ok- my fave product on the Nothing Like It site would have to be the crushed turkey- too funny! love the bulging eyes!

great idea, ladies!

Anonymous said...

Ok this is fun! I didn't even know you had a blog until browsing the forums this morning and also discovered a cool new shop in the process!

My favorite item in Nothinglikeit's shop is the Cranky Carrot The Atomic Veggie Magnet. It was hard to choose though, because I loved several things like her turtle coaster in her sold items too.

For another combo, based on what is in your shops now I'd say,

Grannys Swingin Nog Soy Wax Candle 8 Oz and Fig the Flat Elf Christmas Coaster

Way to go you two!

elphabainwicked said...

This is fun...

I liked in NothingLikeIt's shop, Pumpkin Toes...the little feet are too cute.

Now...the mixture of the two...I would like to see the Honeysuckle on a Flattened Bee.

Great shops!!!

Tina

P.S. The idea from Tricia about the Thin Mint with a Flattened Boy Scout was awesome!!!

Anonymous said...

so cute and loveable.

Tackyhandmade said...

Got to love the whole idea, but this Rudolph coaster is starting to put me into the holiday spirit!
