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 think I’d have to go with jubilee.
And Ethyl would be a great sister for Alex.
Is there a reason we’re thinking about baby names??? ;)
I would love to have the Jubilee! I need them desperately right now!
Ethel of course! I mean what more could a Tide Girl want besides Houndstooth???!!!
They are most definitely SASSSSY!
Jubilee!
I do believe Jubilee is the one for me!
I love the disclaimer at the end. You’re awesome.
These gloves are so cute! I like the rendevous. Very chic.
Thanks!
I like Jubilee the best. And it appears I’m not alone. :)
JUBILEE, JUBILEE, JUBILEE….uh…Please!
the expression for sure..I am a red kind of gal!!!!
either rendezvous or jubilee – i can’t decide!
I’d love rendezvous, please!!
i’m loving the jubilee and the expression. these would make a PERFECT gift for my mom!!
Oh the jubilee are just too cute!! But they are all adorable. What a cute find!
love them! jubilee is my favorite
The jubilee is my favorite too!
Man! I just bought new gardening gloves on Sunday! Not nearly as cute as these though. I hope I win because I would have a hard time justifying buying another pair! Oh, I like the rendezvous!

The Jubilee style is for me. So Sassy! Thanks for the giveaway.
I love the Gala! Very sheek.
Jubilee is my favorite although they are all beautiful!
a new pair of gloves for a new garden! Jubilee is my fav! :)
Jubilee for sure. And you know what *I* want? A groovy pair of gloves for the kitchen sink. I hate those rubber ones that wear out all too soon. And then! I bought the industrial strength ones at Tar-zhey, and they’re too big and bulky.
But maybe all I really need to do is dress up and wear a necklace while wearing my gloves, and all will be well.
I adore the Jubilee gloves. I would love to get a pair that fit me, as I apparently have larger hands than your average Walmarts shopper. I might be scared to get them dirty, however.
oh its jubilee for me!!
my pick is the signature!
I love the ‘expression’!!!
I’m going with the Jubilee. Light colored on top – to keep cool – and tan on the inside – to keep from looking TOO dirty.
Yes, the Jubilee.
My favorite are the Rendezvous! Thank you for the giveaway!
Oh I just came in from planting some green things to cover the brown stuff… I’m not good at this at all, but maybe the GALA glove will make me better. Thanks for the chance.
Ooh! They’re simply gorgeous! I choose Signature…these are going on my give-as-gifts list for sure! Thanks Boomama, for breaking your summer giveaway pledge for these yummy gloves!
Definitely Expression, because they’re red and I would surely be able to find them after someone else uses them and neglects to put them back where they belong. And they’re cute!
I love the jubilee!!! How sassy. I could find so many excuses to wear them besides gardening.
Totally a toss up between jubilee and rendezvous. Totally SASSSS-SY
um yes I would love a pair of these snazzy, sassy gloves. They will come in handy this summer when I’m going out to dinner, I mean harvesting my peppers. Rendezvous please…
Just like Doris Day – totally :)
I love the Gala – like my favorite apple!
I really like the Rendezvouz…or maybe the Signature.
I like the Jubilee.
Because “seamless grace and efficiency” is my middle name, I MUST have the Ethel gloves in Gala. I would need a hired hand to wear them for me perhaps as I don’t garden and try to avoid dirty jobs of all kinds. But I have a co-worker that I could give them to. Fun!
jubilee! oh what fun!
I am definitely a rendezvous kind of girl. I would look to cute pruning the shrubs in those, out here in the sticks.LOL
Blessings,
Trixi
Jubilee- just what I need for working in my garden this summer.
Please sign me up. My daughter is such a gardening girl and she would love them. My granddaughter and I are what she likes to call, “Inside Girls”. But Jo, my daughter, is the proverbial Green Thumb.
Granddaugher only does inside plants and I do fake. :)
I love the Jubilee. I don’t enjoy working out in the yard, but who knows, with these gloves…maybe.
Expression – hot pink – need I say more?
Since these gloves would make a great gift for my mother-in-law, I’ll pick Expression as my favorite – mostly b/c they are the University of South Carolina Gamecock colors and my m-i-l is a HUGE fan. If I were lucky enough to win a pair, that is what I would choose. If I were lucky enough to win 2 pair, I would also choose rendezvous for me. Thanks!
I’m goin for the signature, cuz theys already black & after I wear them in the dirt (garden) they will be blacker. I have a sister-in-law named Ethel, sure nuff…
Jubilee for me1
yes! the gala ones puleeze :)
Oh!The rendezvous ones are not only adorable but the name is sooo catchy..
Thanks for hosting!!!!
I would love to win the Jubilee pair. I’m pregnant and I feel these sassy gloves would draw attention away from my every growing belly. People would say, “Look at those hands” instead of trying to touch my belly.
Since I’m lucky enough to have a gardener, I’ll only need the Jubilees to protect my soft skin as I walk through the lawn to get to the house. I’ll just wave to the poor, sweaty guy as I pass.
(Okay, so it’s my husband, but that makes me doubly lucky, don’t you think?)
Ohhh, I love the rendezvous. I was just saying I need some gloves to work outside in!!!! Love these!
Have a great summer!
I’m totally loving the Jubilee, so cute!
signature–very nice.
Love, love, love the Jubilee!!!
I love the Rendevous because it looks like something I would totally wear to an Alabama football game (Roll Tide!). And I love the Jubilee. They make yard work elegant. And I rarely do yard work :)
Love the gala ones – black is my thing!
LOVE these gloves!! I’ve totally gone back and forth, but I think I have settled on the rendezvous. Oh how I hope I win!! I def need something to get me motivated to pull weeds and protect me from those nasty worms!!!
Oooh, I hear Jubilee callin’ my name. Thank you!
I like the Gala gloves. Thanks so much for the opportunity.
Cool, I vote for Gala :)
Totally love the Gala! Thanks for the giveaway!
It’s either the expression or the jubilee. Oh…which one? Ok, I’m gonna go with jubilee!
I can’t decide between rendezvous and jubilee. ANY of these would be fun to use! (BTW, This is great market research for the Ethel company…)
Jubilee for me! hee hee hee
I like signature…since they’re going to get brown and dirty, you won’t be able to tell. (I’m compulsive and don’t garden much, can you tell? But that would totally change if I won these!)
Ooh, I might even redo my flowerbeds if I had a pair of Ethel “Expression” gloves to wear! I love the gloves. :-)
I would have to go with the ”GALA”!Too cute!!
The Jubilee gloves are beautiful… I can totally see my mom wearing these in her garden.
Alex and Ethel has a nice ring to it… (hey, I named my daughter Ruth— I’m all for old fashioned names!)
oh goodness, I like the jubilee…or the gala…or maybe the expression. they are all so dang cute!! winning might convince me to actually DO yard work! (I prefer the A/C to perspiring)
Jubilee please!!
jubilee!
I love the jubilee too. Very sassy!
I really like Expression since red is my favorite color, and then I like Jubilee, the blue is very pretty!
OH, I just adore the Jubilee.
the rendezvous is the way to go!
Jubilee . . . hands down!
I simply must say, the “jubilee.”
They win hands down over the ratty Barbie garden gloves I’ve been wearing.
I also will go with the Jubilee.
The jubilee pair are mine. Love ’em!!!
I’m really going with the consensus and saying the Jubilee. They are adorable. And the website is very sassy, yet sophisticated.
I like the Jubilee. I rather like the name as my grandmother’s name was Ethel. She is now home with the Lord and wouldn’t it be sweet to think of her with her name right there on my gloves each time I went to use them!
I am digging (pun intended) the jubilee gloves because I don’t think enough people picked that print :)
I like the Expression ones best!
Rendevous for moi….
I like the one I can’t spell. Ron-day-voo. Only I think there’s a ‘z’ in there somewhere. Those French have to sneak in all kinds of silly letters.
Oooh…these are FUN! I especially like the Jubilee.
I like the gala! dark so the dirt wont show :) thanks!
I like the Jubilee pair. Thanks!
I also like the Gala ones the best! Thanks for another great giveaway.
Jubilee-do-dah!
Jubilee are my fav!
These look so nice! I love the Rendezvous. I have lots of yard work to do, maybe these will give me the extra motivation I need!
Jubilee for me … or gala … or rendevouze (sp?!?!)… oh, I like e, all. Please don’t make me pick!
I am soooooooooooooo lovin those Jubilee!!!
I am ALL about the jubliee!
Gala gal, that’s me! Always makin’ the blisters cause I don’t don the gloves. Save me!
Jubilee for me and not just because it rhymes!!! By the way, you’re freaking me out. Are you having another boo baby?
Jubilee!
I cast my vote for Expression, because if I were invited to a black-tie event, I would most assuredly wear red stilettos if my feet would shut up and let me.
Definitely the gala. Love them!
