And our lucky winner of over $400 worth of art is… Kate (who loves the mix of love salty and sweet: chocolate covered pretzels, salted caramel, trail mix, etc). Congrats!
There are so many incredible options when it comes to bringing art into your home, so we thought we’d put together a mixed bag of three very different, but equally cool artists’ work. The first comes from D is for Dino, a local guy who also moonlights at our favorite candy store. He makes awesome graphic prints that are crisp, beautiful, and contain “a hint of geekery.” Here are a few of our favorites that you might want to spend your $100 gift card on…
Next up is Against the Woodgrain, who sports quite the mix of media. They’re giving away one of my favorite items: a vintage-inspired arrow light fixture that looks like it was salvaged from some drive-in back in the day (it’s actually handmade just for you).
Last but not least is Jessica Alpern Cuts Paper. We had a hard time picking from her all of her intricately hand-cut works because there’s just something so charming about every single one. So good luck picking which ones to get with your $100 gift card…
- PRIZE: An arrow light fixture from Against the Woodgrain, an $100 gift card to Jessica Alpern Cuts Paper, and an $100 gift card to D is for Dino. That’s over $400 worth of art!
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MIX ME!” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what’s your favorite thing to mix? Root beer and ice cream for dessert? Stripes and polka-dots in your wardrobe? Rap and country music on your iPod?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, July 4th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)

Mix Me!!!
I love to mix peanut butter with whipped cream (usually fat-free Cool Whip) to make a peanut-buttery ice cream substitute. I do it so often that I used it as a clue during a game of Taboo when the card read “peanut butter”. My team mate instantly got the answer.
Michele says
MIX ME!
I like to mix peanut butter into my chocolate ice cream–mostly because I can only find peanut butter cup ice cream in the grocery store. I mean, what’s THAT all about?

Joanna says
MIX ME! I was thinking…mixing old and new, but then I saw someone’s post about mixing frozen yogurt and now I’m drooling so as I keep this run on sentence running I love yogurt places where I get to fix my own. I can satisfy that chocolate and nutty craving on one side of my dish and my sweet and fruity craving on the other half. Just don’t drink the leftover juice. It is nasty!
