Easter Baskets + Persnickety Gifts Giveaway!

Remember in December when we talked about my two marvelous friends and their done-for-you holiday magic? Persnickety Gifts sources stocking stuffers, Easter baskets, birthday gifts, and more so that you can celebrate as a family with ease. If you love the idea of shopping small, curating thoughtful gifts, and creating everyday magic for your littles, but don’t have the patience, know-how, bandwidth, and/or desire to make it happen, this is for you!

Just like their stockings, their done-for-you Easter baskets couldn’t be easier: you choose your child’s age and gender on their website, and they send you a neatly-packaged bundle of goodies ready to tuck into their basket. No paying shipping from 15 retailers or breaking down 15 boxes – just handpicked delights from small and lovable businesses. (And no weird surprises, either – you can see everything that will be included right in the listing!)

So fun, yes? And lucky for us, Persnickety was kind enough to let me give away one done-for-you basket bundle! Just leave a comment here with which basket bundle you’d choose (age + gender – though of course they’re just suggestions – you know your kids best!). Consider following Persnickety on Instagram or signing up for their newsletter for a little holiday magic throughout the year, if you’d like.

I’ll choose a winner on Wednesday! (Updated to add: Congratulations to our winner, Carolyn!)

In addition to inviting me to host a giveaway, my pals were kind enough to send me a few items from their add-on collection. And friends, don’t sleep on this under-the-radar part of their business! It’s perfect for someone like me – who enjoys collecting things throughout the year and likes to include basics like shoes and pajamas, but loves the opportunity to round out what I’ve collected with fun items from small businesses (again without paying shipping multiple times or breaking down boxes).

Here’s what each of our kids will be getting in their Easter baskets this year, including goodies from Persnickety Gifts:

June, age 7, will have a Banagrams set, a new water bottle, rainbow stripe pajamas from the consignment sale, fruit nail stickers, a Sudoku book, a unicorn coloring book from a local store, a few chapter books (also from the consignment sale), a headband, the cutest color-changing markers, gummy bear barrettes (!), some candy from a local shop, and a bath bomb. We also included the Gospel of John from the Kaleidoscope collection – very excited about that.

Shep, age 4, will have a jungle animals sketch book, a Bluey coloring book, an alphabet activity book, water-grow animal capsules, a bathing suit, goggles, the best blue bath foam, a mini football, a giant bubble wand (!), a new water bottle, some candy from a local shop, and a bath bomb.

Annie, age 1, will have some farm animals (all our kids LOVE these), the next size up in Cientas and Natives (the latter I got at the consignment sale!), a bathing suit, new socks, the cutest rainbow wand and crown, a copy of Laura Wifler’s new picture book, and a bath bomb.

Thank you so much to Julie + Irene for letting me share this giveaway! I hope you win! :)
