We have winners!

Chanukah is right around the corner and I think our first Miracles of Hanukkah Sale got us all thinking about starting the season on time!  Sellers and shoppers alike had fun and you can count on more challenges and promotions from the EtsyChai team in the future.

Studio618 said... “This sounds like fun. Good luck to the winners.”

What’s next?  We have lots coming up here at the blog… some featured seller articles, maybe a ‘Wednesday Wish List’, seller promotions and of course, Chanukah is right around the corner.  Leave your comments here, your feedback is always welcome and appreciated!

It’s a Treasure Hunt

The only map you’ll need for this Treasure Hunt is the list of participating EtsyChai & Etsy Israel shops, which you can find below.

What are you hunting for?  (Besides the great deals being offered this week!)  Here’s a peek at just a few of the images that are hidden -

There are 18 total “Miracles of Hanukkah” Menorah images hidden in participating shops item listings.  For a chance to win a prize, find the most of these and when you find them, send an email to teametsychai@yahoo.com, with the name/description of the image, where you found it {shop name, item listing, &/or URL} your email address, and shop name if you have one. 

“What’s a Menorah? Just in case you don’t know: a menorah (or hannukiah) is a nine-branched candlestick used at Hanukah. Eight of the branches represent the miracle that a small pot of oil miraculously burned for eight days after the Temple was reclaimed and cleansed in the Hanukah story.  Today, during each day of the holiday, a candle is added each night to our modern menorahs, so there's one on the first night, two on the second…& so on… until eight on the eighth. The ninth branch is called the shamos, or helper, and is lit first to light the other candles, usually located in the middle, but sometimes on a side of the menorah.”  Leslie of  siragwatkins.etsy.com & leslietsy.etsy.com.

Remember that to win a prize; your goal is to find the most hidden images, and new hidden images will be in shops each day, come back to hunt through the participating shops often.  Good Luck!
