Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

This gift is for my Grandmother, at first it may be a little confusing figuring out which block goes where but I included a picture from this site with her gift. I expected them to be smaller and cheap looking, to be honest but the are very nice, heavy blocks with painted letters, not stickers! GREAT BUY!

What a great idea!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

I love these blocks - what a clever idea to make a set of blocks that are for 6 holidays instead of just one. I bought these for myself, but they would make a perfect gift as well. I agree with other posters - it would be wonderful if a "part 2" set was available for other holidays. Definitely worth the money!

So cute!!

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

These are a cute idea. My son likes putting the phrases together. The quality could be better. I have 2 blocks that are completely crooked so when you line them up on a flat surface it's quite noticeable. Otherwise fun and cute.

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

This is a wonderful site and I enjoy purchasing gifts for my family especially my grandchildren. I was disappointed that this particular item does not give me the option to replace Merry christmas and happy Easter with Happy Hannukah and Happy Passover. You might increase your sales with this option. Thank you.

Cute cute cute

Pros:

Attractive Design

Best Uses:

Living Room

Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

These are so cute. I gave them to my 6 year old to make all the sentiments.
It kept him busy for a while, he liked the challenge. They need to come with illustrations, because if you don't have the item picture from the catalog it takes a while. I bought 6 of them for holiday gifts. (they will make great teacher gifts)

Love them....But!!!

By Bargin Shopper! from Phx, AZ on 7/25/2008

Pros:

Attractive Design, Bright

Cons:

Delicate

Best Uses:

Kitchen, Living Room

Describe Yourself:

Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

Saw them in the catalog..and so did my husband, and with out me even mentioning them he bought them and gave them to me for Christmas. I really love these festive blocks. Wish there was a "Happy Turkey Day" or "Happy Thanksgiving", and "Happy New Year". I have received many compliments from friends and family. Only complaint is.... I wish they were not so delicate, many of the blocks have paint that is chipping off!

I still plan on giving a few sets as x-mas gifts.

Maybe LV should get together with manufacture and make a Series 2..... "Happy Turkey Day", "Happy Mother's Day", "Happy Father's Day", Happy New Year", or a set with seasons, "Happy Spring", "Summer Fun", "Festive Fall", "Welcome Winter"....
I would love to add to my set!!

Adorable!

Pros:

Attractive Design, Multi uses

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

Great quality. Heavy feel in the hand. Better than expected. Thought they would feel like balsa wood. Have had tons of compliments on them. Ordered more for gifts. Will have to open them to make sure they are printed correctly. Other reviewers have mentioned problems with certain blocks.

Pros:

I love these, however,there is no copy of the display in the box, so you need to save it from the catalog in order to set the blocks up.

Good Buy

By Nifer

from Las Vegas, NV on 12/28/2007

Pros:

Attractive Design, Bright, Durable

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

When something is inexpensive, I am naturally skeptical of the quality. The quality of this product is better than the [$] I paid. I bought two sets, one for me and one to give as a gift. I ended up keeping both sets - putting one in the entry way and another in the family room.

Pros:

Durable, Good Value

Best Uses:

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

I received these blocks and love them. Although had to return due to misprint. One block was duplicated...I couldn't spell out Merry Christmas....it was Cerry Christmas and the America one had an extra E at the beginning instead of a star. Strange but Lillian Vernon is sending me out a new set. Will be in time for first use at Christmas.

Great for decorating!!

By The Shopper from Fremont, CA on 11/5/2007

Pros:

Durable, Good Value

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Holiday Sentiment Blocks:

It would be helpful to have the picture from the website, showing the various greetings, included with the blocks. I received a set that was missing a letter so it was a bit frustrating trying to set up the Halloween greeting. [...]

This is a great decoration to have.
