Happy Easter! (And Give-Away Reminder)

Happy Easter! We had the most wonderful Easter weekend! The weather was absolutely gorgeous here and except for church and Lillie's nap times we spent every minute of it outdoors! We played tennis, had Easter egg hunts and spent hours both Saturday and Sunday in Colonial Williamsburg! I am plugging away on my taxes right now and don't have time to write, so this will be just a post full of photos from our weekend.

Also, don't forget to enter our give-away for our Adeliene dress!!!!

So, I had all of these grand Easter decorating ideas and didn't get to any of them!!!!! Arggh! I can't wait to be caught up on all of these wholesale orders so I can actually have some fun doing some other projects for a change. I had seen these beautiful eggs on another blog and was so inspired by them that I went out and got the supplies but never had time to make them. (I will try to find the blog so I can post a link and picture - it was such a cool idea! So elegant!) Anyway, Lillie and I did put about 5 or six nests sprinkled throughout the house and then one of my aunts sent some beautiful egg topiaries and wreath so that helped it feel festive!

UPDATE: I haven't found the blog I originally saw them on, but found these that are really simlar from Tales From An O.C. Cottage. Aren't they gorgeous! Next year I am definitely going to make some!!!!!! (Although I don't think mine will ever turn out this beautiful!)

Here is one of several little nests we put throughout the house.

I got these cute little hang tags with that last bunch of Dear Lillie hang tags that I ordered from Paper Eclectiques. They have the most beautiful hang tags! I am addicted to them! Lillie and I got the ingredients for cupcakes and some pastel colored sprinkled sugar from Williams-Sonoma so we could put them at each place setting, but didn't get to that either!

Lillabel at the park on Saturday! My mom made this tutu for her and there were some bunny ears that went with it! She looked so cute!
And here she is running down the streets of Colonial Williamsburg later in the day.

Here are a few pictures from Lillie's Easter Egg hunt this afternoon!

Ahhhhhh - I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE living in Williamsburg!

Our April Give-Away.....THE ADELIENE DRESS!

Hello again, everyone! So, for this month's give-away we have chosen the Adeliene dress! The winner gets to choose the color-way they would like and their size. Here are some of the color-ways we offer (you can find more options on our websites):

The Adeliene Dress - Black on Black


The Adeliene Dress - Ivory and Midnight on Navy

The Adeliene Dress - Slate and Raspberry on Asphalt

The Adeliene Dress - Ivory on Muted Pink

The Adeliene Dress - Silver Moon on White
The Adeliene Dress - Ivory on White
And here is our Stella Dress shown in Midnight on Navy (we also have other colors available)
Sizes run from Small to XL (we are running low on black mediums and Bella is currently out of stock, so I am not sure we will have any black dresses left in size medium by the time this give-away ends, we have good stock in all of the other color dresses, though). These dresses run quite small and we highly recommend ordering one size larger than you normally wear. You can find a size chart either at http://www.dearlillie.com/ or by clicking on one of our Adeliene dresses on our Etsy website. So, even though they run from S - XL it is really more like XS - Large! Because of that, if the winner wears an XL or XXL they can choose one of our Stella Dresses.
So, how can you win one of these?

It is simple:
1) Make a comment letting us know which color you would like to win on this post - 1 Entry (please limit to just one comment per day, you can comment each day, though, if you would like)

2) Mention this giveaway with a link on your Facebook page or Tweet about it: 1 Entry (in order for it to count as an entry, please write "Facebook" or "Twitter" as its own comment in the comment section)

3) Become a follower - 2 Entries (in order for it to count as an entry, please write "follower" as its own comment in the comment section, and make sure to do it two times so it will count as two extra entries for you, or if you are already a follower, make sure to write "follower" also as a comment two times)

4) Mention this giveaway on your own blog and include a photo of one of the dresses and link to our giveaway, - 2 Entries (Again for this to count make sure to write "blog" two different times as comments.) In case you are wondering why in the world you have to comment each time you blog or tweet about it or become a follower, it is because we use the number of comments to plug into the random number generator and that is how we know what number to plug in and who matches up with it - hope that makes sense.

Good luck to you all and we will announce the winner on April 12th! We also will be hosting another give-away then in honor of hitting our 100th follower mark so don't forget to check back.

AND THE WINNER IS.....

Congratulations to Hana of the MomTog Diaries! She has won her choices of shirts shown in the March Mini Give-Away! She has two wonderful blogs that you definitely should check out. Her photography work is amazing! Below is some of her beautiful work!

Here is the random number generator we used to pick our winner:

Thanks again to all of your who entered! We had several people wondering why these shirts can't be found on our website or our Etsy site any longer. The reason why is because we are running quite low on stock right now and only have a handful of sizes left in each design. I have quite a few different designs available still (in long sleeve and short sleeve) but don't have a full size range left in any of them so we took them off of our sites. Once we get caught up with our wholesale orders we do plan on reprinting a bunch of them, as well as coming out with some new designs. Unfortunately, this may not be until mid to late summer. However, if you ever see one you like you can always send us an e-mail at dearlillie@hotmail.com and we can let you know if we have your size left and then list it as a custom listing for you on Etsy.

Also, please check back later today as we will begin our next give-away - one of our Adeliene dresses in the winner's choice of size and color-way!

And in honor of hitting the 100 follower mark we will be hosting another give-away as soon our our Adeliene Dress one ends!
