Secret Santa Sign Up.

We will be hosting not one but TWO separate Secret Santas!

Please read all information below carefully to be sure you are sending in the correct information.

Secret Santa - Boutique

Participating Boutique Partners will browse through our comp (just like they were going to book a model) and email the information listed below to elliekatemodels@gmail.com. We will email the model that they have chosen and let them know that they have been booked via a "Secret Santa" boutique partner. If the model accepts, we will send the boutique their mailing address. When the boutique ships the items, they should NOT include which boutique sent the items. The boutique will have the option to either request photos of the items or just give the items away as gifts to the model. If photos are requested, the model will treat this as a booking request, and will have 10 days to return the photos. After everyone participating has received their packages, we will post a list of boutiques that participated and the models will get to choose who sent their package. They will get ONE guess. If they guess right, they will have their name entered for free into our Christmas Giveaway.

*There is no package value limit for this Secret Santa event.

To sign up, please email the following to elliekatemodels@gmail.com

Boutique Name
Owners Name (First and Last)
Mailing Address
Models Name
Age

Last day to sign up for Secret Santa is November 12th.

Your budget is $20. The minimum you should spend on a Secret Santa gift is $5.
If you sign up to send a gift, then you are also entered to receive a gift.

By sending in your models information for Secret Santa you have also agreed to participate in being a Secret Santa for another model. If you fail to follow through with your Secret Santa duty after a package has been shipped to your model, consequences will follow. Please do not agree to participate if you are unsure you will be able to do so.
We will email your information for the model that you have received within 24-72 hours of receiving your information.

Confirmation tracking numbers must go on ALL packages and the confirmation number should be emailed to Kate at elliekatemodels@gmail.com as soon as possible!

Once all packages have been received by all participating models, we will post a list of all of the models who participated for models to take ONE guess at who sent their package. Models who guess correctly will be entered into our Christmas Giveaway!

Last day to sign up for Secret Santa is November 12th.

Miss Kate's Secret Santa
All models that sign up for Secret Santa -Model 2 Model will have their names entered into a drawing to receive a SECOND Secret Santa gift from Miss Kate! The model that receives two gifts will have to figure out which gift is from her! If the model guesses BOTH of their secret santa's correctly, they will be entered TWICE for the Christmas Giveaway!

Upcoming Events!

With the holidays quickly approaching, Ellie Kate Models is looking into some fun events to bring to EKM!

All events are open to registered Ellie Kate Models ONLY!
If you are interested in registering yourself or your children, please email elliekatemodels@gmail.com

Santa Letters
The cost is $3 per model. The form to fill out is located in the tab above (last tab on this blog). For more detailed information, please email us at elliekatemodels@gmail.com

Secret Santa
We are so excited to start our "Secret Santa"! We think this will be so much fun!

How it works!

Our Boutique Partners will choose a model(s) - there is no limit on the models that they choose.
Email us just like you would to book a model, but instead, please put the email title as "Secret Santa Booking".
We will email the model and let them know that they have been chosen by a boutique to receive a Secret Santa gift in the form of a booking request.
If the model accepts, we will email the boutique partner back and let them know.
We will ask that the boutique hold the items until we give you the "okay" to send them out (Starting December 1st).
After the 1st of December, we will email the models back for their mailing address and send it to the boutiques. - You are then okay to send the Secret Santa Items.
Please do not include your boutique name on the items anywhere - or on the box!
After the model receives the items, they will have to guess WHO sent them the items by leaving us a comment on a note on our facebook (To be created..)
If the model guesses the correct boutique - they will get their name put into a drawing for our Big Christmas Giveaway - You only get one guess, so take your time!
The boutique will choose whether they would like modeling photos of the items or if they would just like to give the items away as a Christmas Gift, please let us know if your first email so we can notify the model!
Participating boutique partners will also have their name entered into the Giveaway!

December MOTM

Our December MOTM theme will of course, be CHRISTMAS! More details will be posted at the end of November! If you do not celebrate Christmas, please email us right away and let us know so we can make a couple of changes to our theme! - Please also let us know if you celebrate anything other than Christmas as well! - elliekatemodels@gmail.com

I will tell you guys - We will have a couple of runner ups from this MOTM contest as well as a winner, all winners will have their name entered in the drawing for our Big Christmas Giveaway! The top winner will still get to be our profile picture for the month of December.

Christmas Picture Bingo

Our Christmas Picture Bingo will last for one week! There will be a grand prize winner as well as two runner ups!

How it works

At the beginning of December, we will post a note on EKM's facebook page with a list of Christmas Words.
You will have one week to find each word and take a photo of you or your model with the item. (Example - "Candy Cane" is the word - Take a photo of yourself or your model with a candy cane)
Once you have found all of the words, upload the photos to a picasa or photobucket photo album and send us the link! You may also upload the photos to you or your models facebook page and tag us! (Please remember, if you upload them to a personal friending page, we will not be able to see it unless you are FRIENDS with us on facebook! Our friending page can be located at the bottom left hand side of the EKM fan page! ~ Send us a friend request!
Whoever turns their photos in first will win! (We will check to make sure all photos are there before announcing your win).
Photos do not have to be professional or high quality, they can be snap shots of you or your model in a store since we know how difficult some of the words may be!

We will also play some smaller games! To be announced!

Christmas Giveaway
Santa Claus is coming to Ellie Kate Models and he has presents!
Our give away will be held in the form of a Raffle!

How it works

The cost will be $2 per chance to win. You may enter however many times you would like.
Winners of our other games/contests will be entered automatically, if you win a game and you do NOT want to have your name entered into our giveaway, please let us know so we can have another contestant replace your spot.
A prize list will be posted prior to beginning the giveaway, a couple prizes will include gift cards to target/walmart, etc.
Participants will have their name put into an excel word document and I will use random.org to determine the winners.
The giveaway will take place at the beginning of December.

We are open to donations for prizes - If any boutique would like to donate any prizes with a cash value greater than $10, please email elliekatemodels@gmail.com for more information. You will receive credit for the items when prizes are announced.

Remember, all holiday games will be open to registered EKM models only!

If you have any questions or comments about any of the above games, please email elliekatemodels@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Kate
