I was all prepared to be done with the giveaways. Really. I was.
I decided to take a break from them for awhile because, well, they’re time-consuming, and I figured that unless I ran across some Deeply Memorable Music, there was nothing I could give away that wouldn’t keep until fall.
But then I found out about Ethel gloves.
And I just had to – HAD TO – share them.


Say it with me, internets: SASSSSSS-SY.
And who says you can’t be sassy when you’re working in your yard?
They’re also super-durable. According to some information that the Ethel people sent me, the gloves are made to fit the contours of women’s hands, they’re made from four-way stretch Spandex and breathable, synthetic leather materials for flexibility and lightweight comfort, they’re designed to protect with an elasticized extended cuff and reinforced fingertips, and they’re machine washable.
Plus, lest you forget: SASSSSSS-SY.
Seriously. These gloves are so cute that I’m wondering if I can’t wear them all the time.
Like, you know, to the Walmarts or the Publix.
I’ll be just like Doris Day in “Pillow Talk.” Only instead of pairing my gloves with a belted dress, a saucy hat, and a mink stole, I’ll be wearing them with some cropped yoga pants, a t-shirt and flip-flops.
It’s a look that could TOTALLY catch on, don’t you think?
Why, I believe I’ve solidified a new fashion goal.
Anyway, the people at Ethel gloves have very graciously offered to give away five pairs of their gloves to five lucky winners, and here’s what you have to do to be eligible to win.
1. Click here to visit the Ethel gloves site.
2. Check out their five different styles. You’ll find the styles listed across the bottom of the main page – just click on the style’s name (“gala,” “expression,” etc.) to see a picture.
3. Come back here and tell me which style you like best.
4. The end.
And if you see all the sassy on the Ethel site and think YOU HAVE TO HAVE THEM RIGHT THIS SECOND, you can enter in the discount code “Boomama” and get 10% off your order for the next thirty days.
Also, I could write an entirely separate post about how much I adore the name “Ethel,” but instead of doing that I think I’ll just call dibs and say that NO ONE ELSE ON THE INTERNET CAN NAME A DAUGHTER “ETHEL” EXCEPT ME.
I FEEL THAT’S TOTALLY FAIR.
See? I am very reasonable.
And good luck with the giveaway, y’all!
*until I change my mind and do another giveaway, thank you.
This giveaway is now closed.
I’m totally lovin’ the jubilee! Very sassy indeed!!
Sassy indeedy!! I’ll be choosing the Jubilee.
So… can we wonder whether there is a boobaby to go with the cool name Ethel?? Cause that would be a great!
…and I bet she’d be cute and sassy not unlike the Ethel Gloves.
Like the rendezvous pair! Hope they come in small sizes!
I love the jubilee!!!!
Totally about the rendezvoooossss style and golly I hope they come in big fat hand sizes (just teasing you tiny handed people – us fat handed ladies have issues with tight gloves). WOo hooo! Sassy McGloverstein
I love the jubilee!! I think their sassy!
I love the jubilee and the signature!
Love ’em…my fav is signature!
Well, put me on the list of people who love the Jubilee style! Although the Gala style are pretty sassy, too! These would totally give me a good reason to go out in the yard and do some gardening. I might even pull a weed or three!
Oh my goodness, how to choose? I loved each one but if I had to pick one and only one … it would have to be jubilee. Totally darling and I just love the color combo. Perfect for working in our new backyard.
Jubilee is my favorite. Maybe that’s why I haven’t done the weeding. I need cute gloves!~ Amanda
I like the Jubilee ones. They look like they’re really comfy, too!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Julie
Rendezvous is my favorite.
LOVE the Jubilees! Just what I needed to get excited about yard work :).
I love the Jubilee and the Gala. I need some new garden gloves and these are just to cute. I think even if I don’t win I will just have to order me a pair! Thanks for the tip.
I love the Rendezvous and the Jubilee. What beautiful gloves! Great giveaway! :)
I love the Jubilee style. It also happens to be the name of my 7th child and she’s a true cutie.
Jubilee. Ultra-cute.
Absolutely the cutest gloves I have ever seen. I love the Jubilee!!!
Jubilee for me….
I like the rendezvous style. Who knew that gloves for gardening could be so cool?
I totally love the Expression style! Super Sassy!
Gala please!
I would be so excited to win I would take any pair, but if I had to choose, I would pick the jubilee.
I LOVE the Jubilee – TOO cute!
Well now aren’t those just the cutest thing to wear in the garden ever! I would be delighted to do the “harvesting” in a pair of pretty blue Jubilee gloves! And for less than $20! Amazing!
I’m a Jubilee sort of gal.
rendevous for me
Diana
Okay. Gala is my first choice with Jubilee coming in a very close second…
These are sooo cute!
Jubilee it is…..
Expression…the red is sassiest. I might actually enjoy yard work more if I had this stylin’ gloves!!!
I’m loving the Jubilee!
They are all beautiful, Jubilee is my favorite!
Sassy indeed. I would choose the Gala because it’s a cousin of the Little Black Dress.
Oh, it’s hard to pick…I love them all.
I’ll say signature.
I think the jubilee would be perfect for when I mow the lawn … just the right touch. :)
I like both the rendezvous & the jubilee!
I love the Renezvous style. Not only because they’re cute but that name reminds me of some of the best ribs I’ve ever had at the Renezvous in Memphis….YUMMM!!
I might actually do some yard work if I had some cute gloves like these! I’d love the jubilee!
I like the expression.
I like the signature…….
I’ll jubilantly wear the pair called jubilee and be as sassy as I can, while pruning my rose bushes, thank you very much.
Ummmm… did you see the Jubilees??? I absolutely LOVE them. LOVE them.
Sure hope I win.
Thanks for hosting this giveaway…
Happy Summer
I like Signature. Since I sorta quit gardening because I kept killing every plant I planted, I too would have to wear them, as my daddy would say, to the Public.
Ok I am stuck – love both the signature and expression :) Would love to be sassy while digging in the dirt :)
Cute AND functional…how nice! I love the jubilee.
ummm…totally rendezvous! Even the name is SASSSSSS-SY!
I ♥ the jubilee!
The rendezvous gloves are very cute!
I like the signiture ones. Brown and orange is always a good combo!
I like expression the best, but they are all cute!
Oh, the jubilee for sure!
Hey! Totally sassy, yes indeed!! I love the Jubilee!!!
Liking Expression! Very cute!
I love the Jubilee design. My nails always suffer, because I’ll be darned if I’m going to wear ugly gloves. :)
OOO. I love Jubilee. And Gala. And Rendezvous. Except it would get really dirty. Unless I just wore them instead of working in the garden with them. Because let’s be honest, I can totally kill a fake plant.
Also, I used to teach school and taught a little girl named Edna. TOTALLY fit her. She was my absolute favorite kid. And her mom’s name is Ethel.
:)
oh my! Jubilee is the hands down winner for me.
jubilee is my favorite!
I am lovin’ the jubilee design! Thanks for the great giveaway.
Expression is my favorite. I love a houndstooth!
Oh, my goodness and gracious!!! Jubilee….most definitely. Love this design to pieces. Winning them would be cause for great jubilation……yea and amen.
Oh, I NEED the Jubilee gloves. I really do!
Expression! Won’t show as much dirt, either :)
i will want to “rendezvous” in my pit of a yard with those gloves! thanks~
I must have missed who won the ipod thingie. Evidently it wasn’t me lol
Not sure how annie got that little heart in her comments. Very cute!
Jubilee for me
Hugs,
Marie
I like “Jubilee”. Mainly because my grandmother says, “JUBILEE!” when something’s exciting. Then there’s the fact that they are adorable.
Rendezvous would be my choice.
Jubilee is my favorite, and since my grandmother’s name is Ethel, I think I may be lucky and win this time. I hope so!
I like the Rendezvous ones.
I’m thinking rendezvous… so hard to decide, though.
I am madly in love with the blue jubilee gloves. Thanks for posting another giveaway! Congratulations on your new Lifeway blogging adventure! I just love reading anything you have to write! Love you!
jubilee for sure! oh how i would love to be so stylish while working in my yard!!
I love the jubilee…UNLESS wearing the Rendezvous would make me look as cute and perky as that blonde on the homepage, then I’ll take the rendezvous!!! ha ha!
I love me a give-a-way! And you would really name your child “Ethel”? Alex and Ethel…sounds like a sitcom! Hmmm, come to think of it, that might be fitting!
Love ya!
Gala! Cuz they are really SASSSS-Y and that is my goal in life.
I love the Expression gloves! This is perfect timing! My current gloves are just about ready to retire! I would love to win these!
Those are cute! I like the Expression print best. Houndstooth always calls my name.
And the name Ethel? She’s all yours. :)
Expression–so cute. Thanks!

Jubilee is like a party for your hands. I just love hand parties!
I like the Jubilee style! The fleur de lis reminds me of NOLA!
Juliblee rocks my socks. Thanks for the chance to play in dirt in style!
How brilliant are those gloves! I want a pair of each please! Or just a pair of the signature gloves (I’m a sucker for a good orange/brown combo!) and then I’ll actually use them and convince the hubs I simply *must* have them in other colors too!
JUBILEE! I have to have them. Please, please choose me!
Jubilee is my favorite, too. They are all great, though.
I liked the Rendezvous style best. They are so pretty. Do you think these gloves would make weeding more fun?! They certainly couldn’t hurt!!
I’m all about expression on my ever-so-dainty-but-sassy size small hands!
TOTALLY dig Rendezvous…..French and sassy looking – love, love. They will certainly make me want to pull weeds daily, well maybe weekly, or at the very least monthly…. :) Thanks Boomama!
Those are soooo sassy. I haven’t worn gloves that sassy since I was 8 and it was Easter Sunday.
And just for the record, in my heart and mind, your daughter-to-be was already named Ethel.
We are like minds, sistah.
Ok, so this giveaway is making me a little weepy. One of the best gardeners I have ever known is my Grandmother…Ethel. She could work wonders with plants, the greenest thumb you ever saw. The massive rose garden that she and Grandaddy planted 15 years ago in front of Greystone Baptist Church (Durham, NC) is there to this day. We lost her to cancer five years ago, but I love, love, LOVE that there are gardening gloves with her name. Even if I don’t win, I think I know what to get my mom and her sisters as a summer treat…
love the gala ones! thanks boomama!!
Jubilee!
I love Rendezvous.
I like the expression gloves, These would make me feel stylish while i am covered in dirt!
Definitely the rendezvous. I have a weakness for green.
Have to tell you, I was in the bookstore today looking for baby names and I found a book that listed “names that are likely never to make a comeback.” I believe Ethel was at the top of that list.
And it appears you may just help “Ethel” to beat the odds.
I love the signature gloves! I need these to help me feel sassy while pulling weeds in the blazing desert sun.
I love jubilee! They are so classy!
I like the jubilee. Very stylish gloves, and I live on an old farm….I hope I win.
Well, seeing as I reside in the city that is the home of the Crimson Tide, I would have to go with the Expression pattern. I like to express myself with the Hounds Tooth pattern, especially during the fall.
The Jubilee is darling – I am a blue person and they would look just dandy on my hands as I watch the family do yard work LOL
I’d like to rendevous with the rendevous, thank you very much!
