What is your favorite part of the holidays? Mine is, of course, spending time with family but, a really close second is thinking of my holiday theme. This year my theme is going to be sleighs. My Christmas decorations, cards, place settings and some of the gifts I give will all have a sleigh ride type theme. I’ve even managed to incorporate NJ Lottery Holiday Scratch Offs into the festivities.
Last year, I mentioned that my daughter had just moved to Jersey and I wanted to create a holiday gift that incorporated her new home state. I used New Jersey Lottery Scratch Offs and my gifts were a hit creatively and a hit in people’s pockets.
Since then, I took the plunge and joined her to live in Jersey so, naturally I’m excited to be creating something using New Jersey Lottery tickets again but, this time it’s a little more personal with my own holiday theme.
This year the New Jersey Lottery is introducing 4 new Holiday Instant Games ($1 Holiday Luck, $2 Holiday Luck Times 10, $5 Jingle Bills, and $10 Cash in a Flash). These Holiday themed games are fun, festive, and appropriate for anybody to be given as a holiday gesture, stocking stuffer, or party favor. Instant games offer the wonder of a wrapped gift, the entertainment of a game experience and the potential for a large cash payout!
No wrapping required so they are easy to give or send or you can add a little creative twist and join me in creating these NJ Lottery Lucky Sleighs.
As always, I like to keep crafts and Do-it-Yourself projects as simple as possible so, if you’re down with sleighs and also looking for an inexpensive and fun gift that could possibly keep on ‘giving’.
