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 am currently obessed with the words that I have been finding on pinterest. Signs, printables, everything! I wish I could be that clever.
    Oh and lyrics….. I love displaying lyrics, especially when its a song that really means something.

    WORD ME! I love books but I think it’s so wonderful & creative when people use words in unusual ways – especially in creative monograms or really architectural designs. I was in Turkey once and had the pleasure to see prayers written out in tile covering the walls & ceilings of a palace. Of course the words were in arabic so it was doubly as pretty.

    Word Me . . .Yay for real books that smell like ink and have pages to be turned and dogeared. I could get lost in an old bookstore.

    I’m really a fan of words in art. I am eagerly awaiting my most recent word-art purchase from etsy – a print that says “I will be grateful for this day.”

    Word me!

    And I am really really into word tattoos right now, especially in unusual fonts. I haven’t actually worked up the nerve to GET one, but in theory they’re awesome.

    WORD ME! please :)

    (seriously. it would make my…life…? too dramatic. month? at the very least)

    i like to see purdy letters everywhere. my favorite game to play is “name that font!” on posters and billboards and teeshirts and book covers and company logos and wherever else they appear!

    love y’alls blog…thanks for being awesome!

    WORD ME! I love to read and have a whole wall of books. I will even read the backs of shampoo and body wash bottles while in the shower… and whatever else I can find.

    Word me! I’m a word game girl–Scrabble, Words with Friends, etc. I’ll often try for the more interesting word than the high-scoring word.

    WORD ME!

    I can’t get enough of prints with typography! Having pillows with typography would be the perfect addition to our house.
