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 love seeing words just about anywhere. Right now my favorite spots are clever sayings on baby onesies. Too cute!

    WORD ME!
    I’m traditionalist. I love books. To read the day away would make that day perfect. I’ve managed bookstores for most of my adult life and have several hundred books in my personal collection. Re-reading a favorite book is like visiting with an old friend; you relearn what you love about them and what made them hold a special place in your heart.

    WORD ME! I love the combination of words, in essence…I love reading, poetry and the like. However, the art of typography is growing on me.

    WORD ME! I am a total sucker for typography and prints with words and phrases on them. Just made a “you are my sunshine…” poster for my baby girl’s room :)

    WORD ME!! I love the written word…No kindle or nook for me! Hand me a good old fashioned book (preferably one with lots of creases in the spine)!

    WORD ME!
    I like it when words just slap me in the face (i.e. bumper stickers, billboards, tshirts, etc). My theory is…if you’ve got something to say, lay it on me. :-)

    Oh I love to write letters and probably send 8 out a week to family and friends I want to keep up with. I also love letterpress anything!

    WORD ME! Nothing is better than a handwritten love note! My husband and I were long distance for 4 years during college and I saved every letter that we wrote. It’s fun to read them now that we have been married for 6 years!

    Word me! I’m an editor by trade so i guess I love words period. And I was just admiring your Parisian inspired pillows last week and thinking, I need new pillows! So I had to enter for this. Why do all the pillows I love have to be so expensive?!
