***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
Just as Holly guessed during last week’s winner post, our latest giveaway is indeed from our friends at Z Gallerie. They’re back after their much loved freebie last May to put a little sparkle in your holiday season. While the big Zee-G has tons of glittery items for your house, your tree and even your dining table, we somehow managed to comb through all the eye candy and pick out a collection of our absolute favorite holiday items. So here’s what this week’s winner will be snagging:
The Z Gallerie holiday prize pack includes: two ribbed Antique Mercury Votive Cups, a silver Antique Mercury Hurricane and a set of four Puccini Hiball glasses. We love them because not only do they provide a touch of holiday glam to a dining or console table, you can even get away with breaking them out during the other 11 months of the year. And if they look familiar it’s because Z Gallerie kindly sent a set our way (and we whipped them out for this Thanksgiving decor post a few weeks back).
So how do you get your hands on this sparkly set of holiday cheer? Here’s the 4-1-1:
- PRIZE: Two ribbed Antique Mercury Votive Cups, a silver Antique Mercury Hurricane and a set of four Puccini Hiball glasses from Z Gallerie
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “Z ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us if you plan to entertain people at your home this holiday season OR if you prefer to be entertained at someone else’s house. And either way, do you have any tips for being a great host and/or courteous guest?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 2nd at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: United States only
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

z me! I’m a hostess all the way! I love planning parties and setting decorations. As a hostess I always always start by cleaning. Nothing says welcome to my house like a clean house. And of course candles. Lots of candles. :)
sara dean says
Z ME!!! I love Z Gallerie! I am planning on being a guest at my brother-in-law’s house this Christmas, although I do enjoy to host as well.
Here’s a very general rule of thumb for anyone hosting guests this holiday: Always make sure your guests have a place in your home to feel completely comfortable.
Jessica Gould says
Z ME! I love mercury glass. I wish I could host the holidays this year but my tiny apartment doesn’t allow for much. By next season I’ll be in a new space and can’t wait to throw some lavish parties.
Raye Marie says
Z ME! I love the mercury glass.

Z Me!
Mallory says
Z ME!! Awesome give away this week!! I like being the host! Aside from the dishes at the end of the night, it’s such a treat to have other people over to enjoy the things you have worked hard to provide. We ususally end most dinner parties with crazy competitive board games.
Kristin says
Z Me!!! This year we will be spending the holidays as guests of multiple family members back in snowy Ohio. As much as I do like to host gatherings, its nice to not have to worry about much besides making sure all your gifts get shipped in time! However, being a good guest means pitching in wherever you can…whether that be with the cooking, the dishes, or even the laundry! Whatever the hosts need we try to be an extra hand wherever we can.
Michelle says
Z Me!!
Baby’s first Christmas and we’re hosting…in need of many hosting tips!!
Amy Thomas says
Z ME! I am having Christmas this year, in my new home, and would love these mercury glass pieces to add some sparkle. I haven’t yet got to decorating and it looks a little sparse right now. Happy Holidays!
Joyce says
Z-ME! Love it, Love it!
Have collected some.
kelly says
Z ME!!!
This is our first Christmas being married, so I’m so excited to decorate our new home! As far as entertaining goes, our church group is having a progressive dinner so I’m looking forward to enjoying some our friend’s decorated homes as well!
Katie J says
Z ME!!!
I do plan on having my first Chirstmas held at my apartment this year. It should be interesting. I have not hosted many dinner parties, but I plan on keeping everyone’s cup filled, bellies full, and hearts warm with a little Bing Crosby Christmas music in the background. :)
Chris says
Z Me! I am both hosting family and attending family parties. I would love to present my girlfriend with these great mercury glass pieces.
sarah says
Z ME! We entertain friends but go out of town to spend time with family.
heather says
Z-me! my mantle is covered this year with mercury glass trees and silver glittery deer. I backed it with silver leaves and bunches of hops on the vine that I sprayed with sliver glitter spray. I always worry that things aren’t perfect, but I like to have people over.
to be the perfect quest? come on time, leave a little early and bring a fabulous appetizer!
Arlee Leo says
Z Me!
We host a holiday open house each year. This year, I’m thinking of having Christmas cookies pre-made, with a frosting station, where guests can frost their own cookies and take them home with them.
Jaymie says
Z ME! I host a kids cookie decorating party every year. This year I’ll have 16 kids and 6 different cookies that will be assembled and decorated before we move onto the ornament exchange. When I am hosting, I make sure to “Keep Calm and Carry On”.
Laura Barnes says
Z Me! I love the mercury glass! I love to entertain during the holidays, but this year we’re headed home to my family, and that’s pretty great too!
Beth says
Z Me!
This year we will be celebrating our 1st Christmas in our new house!! Lots of decorating and having both families down too stay from out of town, it will be busy!!
Brooke says
Z ME!! Love this place!
Jen says
Z ME!!! Love these beautiful pieces and I can’t get enough of your blog!
Jenni O says
Z me! We usually host a large Christmas party every year, but as people have gotten busier, scheduling has gotten harder, so I think we will forgo it for a year.
Lorrie says
Z ME!
It is tradition to be the guests. We go to my parents house, since they have more space.
Lauren says
Z Me!!! I love this giveaway!! These peices would make a great addition to my holiday decorations, and like you mentioned, would look good on display all year round. We have been hosting New Year’s Eve the last few years. And the celebration usually goes well into the new year!
la petite figue says
Z ME!
I like both … but although I miss my family, nothing beat’s Christmas morning at my boyfriend’s parents’ home. There is a huge pile of gifts, nieces and nephews running around, a delicious food.
Rachel says
Z Me! Love to host but will be the guest this season. Planning on making some gifts for the hostess’s.
Jen says
Z ME!!
i would love to have people over this year! However it’s also great to be guests!
My tips are to keep it simple and just let the evening flow. No one will remember food that didn;t get eaten, for example. I’ve learned people usually eat less than you think, especially if you are not having a dinner party! LOL
Jess says
Z ME!
Sarah W says
Z Me!
After hosting both sets of parents for Thanksgiving we’re just attending for the December holidays! Definitely looking forward to it :)
Jessi E says
Z ME!!! I will be attending others’ homes this year, but only because our apartment isn’t quite big enough to comfortably entertain our whole family. But once we have a space big enough, I will take over the hosting. My best advice for when I do host small dinner parties is to ask yourself what you remember (good and bad) about the times you were entertained at others’ homes. If you don’t remember it, don’t make a fuss about it. Very don’t sweat the small stuff.
Emily says
Z Me! We love to entertain, and the warmth of these beautiful glasses is perfect for our dining room table!!
Aaraena says
Z me!
amber says
“Z ME!”
Our family does a progressive dinner on christmas eve. So each of the married siblings get to host part of the evening. It is really fun-and not too much work for one person to host all the food. And everyone gets to see the other family member’s festive decorated homes & dinnerware :)
sue says
Z ME!!! I love going to someone else’s place with a bottle of wine and plenty of pep to lend a hand and take the load off the hostess.
carrie Hogan says
Z ME! I AM THE ENTERTAINER OF ALL MY FRIENDS. ITS ALL IN THE DETAILS, AND GREAT FOOD OF COURSE! FILL YOUR HOUSE WITH WARMTH AND GOOD CHEER!
Julie A says
Z ME! Please. As my apartment if a bit tiny to do any entertaining, I’ll be partying it up at others’ homes this holiday season. I always try to bring something (even if it’s small) to the host. Food, wine, a small gift, etc.
Laura in LA says
Oooh! Z me! I love all of the items in this giveaway. I will be attending family get-togethers outside of my home. the best advice I can give….keep the little ones occupied & all is good.
Courtney Jones says
Z ME!! I would love to host my family in our home, but we go to both our parent’s house! One of these days we will host at our house! =)
Ashley McAnulty says
“Z ME!”
When it comes to holidays, I always just show up!
Deborah says
Z-Me! I’m more a party-goer than a party hoster. I always try to talk with people who look lonely or uncomfortable. We’ve all been there :)
Jen @ Jewel of the Prairie says
Z ME! We’re heading out of town, so no entertaining for us. We may have one small party with a few friends though!
Wendy Lin says
Z Me!!
Melanie S says
Z ME!! I LOVE to entertain, however, since my husband and I are still the younguns in the family, we have to travel all over to see everyone! Ahhh…..maybe one day! :) I LOVE the baby bump! ;)
Allison Gray says
Z Me!! I love to entertain at home. I love to decorate and light yummy candles to get in the mood. Then I love friends and family to come over. Everyone brings food and we all cook together… singing songs and dancing around. I just love the season.
Greg says
Z Me!
My wife and I love to entertain and have people at our house. One our favorite holiday traditions that we do when we host Christmas at our house is the White Elephant Christmas exchange, it always provides a lot of laughs!
Laura says
Z-Me! I love hosting people for the holidays, but we’re still a young couple and are expected to still come to our parents houses for Christmas…which I love as well!
Lauren Hartnett says
Z ME!
I have not hosted the holidays at my place yet. We’re buying our first home this spring and hopefully we’ll have the place spiffed up for next year!
Jenn says
Z Me!
I love having people to our house. Our kids can stay on their schedule, I love decorating for the holidays, and we finally feel grown up enough that our home should be where we spend our holidays.
Corrie Mackanos says
Z-ME!!!! I love, love, love your blog!!! We always have a Christmas party every year for family and friends and love to decorate our house!! The best piece of advice I can say is have the drinks pouring as soon as the guests arrive!! Happy Holidays!
