Fab Freebie: Space Rhino

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

This may be my favorite freebie title of all time. Is it the name of a band? Is it the newest Pixar film? Nope, it’s just the two words that describe the options that this week’s SIX winners will get to choose from thanks to Cardboard Safari. They’re the makers of cool, quirky animal trophies that are formed entirely out of intersecting pieces of laser-cut cardboard. So if you ever wanted that big moose head on your wall but didn’t have the heart to bust out your inner-Palin, they’ve got you covered.

Cardboard Safari Heads

In fact, Cardboard Safari is so environmentally friendly that their cardboard is all recycled, non-toxic and made locally. They’re actually based in nearby Charlottesville, VA and we’ve bumped into their quirky, cool products all over town lately (our friend Noah even helped design their skull-themed products) so we figured it was about time we did a giveaway with them.

Cardboard Safari Prizes

And just as the post title suggests, we’re giving away two of their newer products as they continue to expand beyond their signature trophies. This week’s winners will get to choose from their new Full-Body Rhino OR Astro Rocket (shown above). Each comes in three sizes in either brown or white cardboard (though they’re entirely paintable if you’d prefer, say, a pink rhino). They’re shipped flat and assembly is easy (kinda like a fun puzzle).

In fact, you can check out the video below of us putting together the – prepared to be shocked – small white rhino that we snagged for our very own home. You know how Sherry is about white animal accessories. You can also watch the video here on YouTube if the video isn’t working for you below. The whole thing took us about 15 minutes, not including a bathroom break for a certain four-legged family member.

Here are your giveaway details for this week:

  • PRIZE: Full-Body Rhino or Astro Rocket of any size and color from Cardboard Safari (each valued up to $58)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “RHINO ME” or “ROCKET ME” based on your preferred prize and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: Tell us what your dream adventure vacation is. Would you love to go on a real life wild safari? Or maybe someday take a trip into space? Feel free to stretch the bounds of reality here – we’re dreaming after all!
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 5th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Six!
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Within the US of A only this time
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner(s) will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Oh, and here’s Robbie’s new home on the shelf above his ceramic cousin:

You know what they say. Happy wife, happy life.

    Rhino me, please!

    These are so cute. If we are dreaming big, I want to travel the whole world with unlimited funds available for whatever small adventure presents itself along the way. Asia, Europe, South America, Central America, Middle East. I want to see it all!

    Rhino Me!

    My dream adventure is diving into the deep sea to see all the amazing creatures down there like mola mola, giant squid, vampire squid, angler fish, umbrella mouth gulper, barrel head fish, and much more like deep sea mountain ranges. But figuring I’m kind of clastrophobic and not rich, I’m not sure I’ll be able to go anytime soon but I still dream of it.

    RHINO ME (in medium white)!

    My dream vacation would be to take a trip back to Kruger National Park in South Africa to see the black rhino, they’re very rare and threatened by extinction. Then I would go to Cape Town and take a charter boat to Seal Island to see the great white sharks!

    Thanks so much :)

    Rocket me!
    My dream vacation is becoming a mercenary in Portugal. I would need a translator, but after I learn the language, I would probably pink slip him. Pink slipping is is tricky in the mercenary business. Then, because I’m a pacifist, I’d probably quit due to lack of business and take up sea kayaking.

    I want to take my husband to London. I keep talking about it, and he just doesn’t know how wonderful it is.

    RHINO ME, please! Dream vacation would be traveling around the Astralian Outback and then going to New Zealand. Although, an African Safari would also be an awesome destination!

    Rhino Me! Definitely some place tropical where you stay in a fancy hut over the water, and you can see the fish beneath your feet through glass.

    Rhino me! Love that little guy! Dream vacation is definitely a combo of beach and family! White sand, blue water, and lots of loved ones.

    Rhino me!

    dream vacation: flying in a helicopter around the world, with a stop in every major city (and a few small ones too)

    And the helicopter would be tricked out. with a kitchen, lounge, bathroom (crossing the atlantic would probably take awhile, the pacficic too, and i guess the Indian), and dance floor.

    RHINO ME! :)

    I’ve always wanted to explore Iceland! I almost made it there a few years ago, but the trip fell through at the last minute. I’ll get there someday!

    a safari would be amazing! also hiking glaciers, swimming with dolphins, rafting on the colorado, exploring the Galapagos! all those adventure get-aways are so much harder to plan! (though i love alice’s idea of the pimped out helicopter!

    RHINO ME, pretty please! I saw these things months ago online and had to refrain from purchasing them all and making a weird collection of them…but 1 rhino would do the trick :)

    RHINO WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMAH!
    (From one of my daughter’s Curious George episodes)

    Dream adventure vacation (and with no boundaries) would be an all-expense paid family vacation visiting no less than 10 European cities over a span of a year.
