Fab Freebie: More Than Words

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below (along with some sweet discounts)!***

Before we announce our winners, let’s first get to two consolation prizes: discounts! Get 15% off your WordGarden order with code YoungHouseLove15 and get 15% off of your Everywhere We Look order with code YHL15.

As for our two winners, random.org has selected… Leah (who “definitely” loves typographic art) and Rebecca A. (who loves books and typographic art – which seemed to be a trend). Congrats ladies!

This week’s pair of prizes (for a pair of winners, no less) come from two Etsy sellers who have a way with words. Namely, they turn the written word into stylish pieces for your home. The first of which, WordGarden, takes text and graphics to give simple pillows a chic European flair – from bicycles and birdcages to his and hers sets. And two of you will be scoring a pair of pillows in any size and any design.

The other half of this week’s prize comes from Everywhere We Look, who creates book page wreaths that could be right out of Anthropologie. And each of this week’s winners will get a large-sized wreath (i.e over 250 pages turned into a 21″ wreath) that’s custom made just for them.

Everywhere We Look Wreath

  • PRIZE: Two pillows of any size from WordGarden and a large custom wreath from Everywhere We Look
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “WORD ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us what form you particularly love seeing words take? Are you a sucker for typographic art (like me)? Have you never met a funny t-shirt or bumper sticker that you didn’t like? Do song lyrics do it for you? Or are you a traditionalist and simply love words in books, poems, and love notes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, July 20th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States and Canada
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from WordGarden and Everywhere We Look.

    Word Me! I’m currently on the hunt for a newborn onesie that has the words…”Hi, I’m new here” with a picture of the Earth. So this question is very fitting :)

    WORD ME!

    I’ll take words almost anyway as long as they are uplifting…but I am especially loving the subway art that pretty popular on blogs these days.

    Word Me!! After studying graphic design for my undergrad, I’ve been a typography nerd for years. I’m a sucker for artwork with unique letter forms. Just drew the word ‘eat.’ in my kitchen and ‘wash.’ in the laundry room!

    Word Me! I am a little obsessed with song lyrics. Give me a song with no lyrics and you will see me more than a little annoyed.

    WORD ME!!

    I love all of the above! Song lyrics, books, quotes, pithy sayings, etc. And of course I love the song you referenced!

    WORD ME!!!
    I love nothing better then a brand spanking new book. The words are mind to read at my own pace and who doesn’t love the nice crack the spine makes as you open it to the middle for the first time?

    WORD ME! I would say that lyrics are where it’s at for me! They elicit so many different emotions and bring back all kinds of memories.

    i love seeing words in the french language form. even a snarky or boring sentence can look so elegant and lovely written in french!

    I love framing notecards and turning them into art – and switching them out! What a fun way to treasure notes from loved ones. :)
