If you guys haven’t heard of papernstitch before, you’ve gotta check it out. It’s another great online source for handmade art (prints, photos, knits, etc) that’s curated monthly to exhibit a fresh crop of handpicked artists for you to shop and draw inspiration from. Might we suggest bookmarking it for your upcoming holiday gift shopping?
This week, papernstitch is giving away a set of four photographic prints from one of their favorite photographers: Allison Trentelman of Rocky Top Studio. Allison is a nature photographer whose snowy birds and forest floor photo collections almost feel like they were shot in some fairy tale world (actually the Maine coast – but we still wouldn’t be surprised to spot a nymph or two in the background). We love that they let you bring both a bit of nature and lighthearted whimsy to your walls.
So here’s how you can score a dose of outdoors for your indoors this week:
- PRIZE: Set of four 7″ x 7″ prints (Tufted Titmouse, Little Mushrooms, Droplets and Pixie Cup) from Rocky Top Studio courtesy of papernstitch.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OUTSIDE PLEASE” or “INSIDE PLEASE” because…
- BONUS QUESTION: …this week we wanna know if you consider yourself to be more of an outdoorsy or an indoorsy person. Is your perfect day spent out in the sun, surrounded by nature- maybe even camping under the stars? Or would you prefer being inside – maybe shopping somewhere, checking out a museum or movie, or even just snuggled in the comfort of your own home?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 25th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: To anyone, anywhere!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Rose Brannon says
INSIDE PLEASE. Not that I’m proud of it. I wish I were an outdoorsy person, but when it comes down to it I’m a big wimp who loves a couch and a good book.
Keira says
“OUTSIDE PLEASE”
We got a hammock this summer and EVERY Sunday I spent at least 3 hours outside reading and sleeping. It was AMAZING! I think I might it up in the basement this winter :)
Kim says
INSIDE PLEASE!
I love the outdoors, but I’d say I’m more partial to being inside making pillows, painting, reading or curled up with a movie. Of course when summer comes around, I’m outside hunting for a good swimming spot!
Taryn says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
Jamie says
INSIDE PLEASE!
I enjoy being outdoors (sometimes) but generally, give me a comfortable place to lounge, a cup of tea, a soft blanket and a good book, and I’m a happy camper. When it’s nice outside I like to read outdoors, though – a marriage of the two!
Kristin says
OUTSIDE PLEASE. Although, I’d say it’s darn close to an even split… I love camping, hiking, boating, football games/tailgating, etc., but I also love cooking, indulging in my favorite TV shows or a movie on the couch, etc.
Sarah G says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! The beach, the mountains, my backyard, an open window….anywhere!
chacha says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
I didn’t choose to live in Southern California for nothing! :o)
Ashley Grey says
“OUTSIDE PLEASE”
I love to explore local parks, camp, boat and hike!
Jill says
INSIDE PLEASE!
I sometimes want to be an outside person, but deep down, I love being in our cozy house, cooking, with a candle burning and a cup of coffee.
Millie says
INSIDE PLEASE!!
As much as I really love nature, I am totally a homebody. Nothing is better to me than hanging out on the couch with a good book, or cooking a huge meal in my lovely kitchen.
stacey says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
I love the outdoors and if I had to choose a place to spend my time it would be out there. Except for maybe in the winter when I’d prefer to be inside more often than not. :)
Kat says
INSIDE AND OUTSIDE PLEASE!
Tough question because I love both! Reading/cooking/watching movies are how I spend most of my time away from work now, but when the weather is nice I get out to enjoy it as often as I can.
heather says
outside please. I am happiest when out in my yard getting dirty. making artie little arrangements with rocks or rusty garden tools. I love to hang things in trees to catch the light. I adore all things birds and so I have a lot of birdhouses and feeders made of fun things.
Elissa says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!
I live in Denver…right on the edge of the rockies. We have 300 days of sunshine as well, how on earth could I stay inside all day?! Even the winter is beautiful (I don’t ski) and the sun helps you stay warm!
Arlee Leo says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
I grew up in the Pacific NW, so we took full advantage of the great outdoors. Although I do appreciate a cozy home when the weather is bad.
Charlotte says
Outside please!
Emily Geyer says
INSIDE/OUTSIDE PLEASE
I don’t know which to pick! If the weather is nice- there is no place I’d rather be than sitting in the sun! BUT, if it is anything other than a perfect day, you’ll find me inside cuddled up on the couch.
Leslie says
OUTDOORS PLEASE…
But I am always stuck inside (should I be realistic and write indoors?).
Amanda LeJeune says
Outside Please! I love being outside. Camping, hiking, sitting and listening to nature. It’s so refreshing.
Katrina says
INSIDE, PLEASE!
I would totally love to say I was an outside person, but with my busy lifestyle these days I have to keep it real – I can’t make time for the outdoors as much as I want to, and I still find solace in curling up on the couch when I have free time to kill.
Sarah M. says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!! The perfect day would be playing in the sun followed by some quality time in a hammock :)
Katie says
Outside Please!
But, I like the idea of “glamping”… Camping with my down comforter, a good bottle of wine, and gourmet food cooked over the campfire.
Jessaca says
Inside/Outside Please! I think the earth is truly amazing. For my honeymoon, my husband and I chose to go to Kuaui because it has so mucy amazing geography on one little island. The “Little Grand Canyon” was truly amazing. But because of my MS, being outside for too long in any extreme condition makes it hard. So I make up for it by opening windows, putting plants around, and hanging up prints of nature.
Jael says
Inside please!
Kimberly R. says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!
We have been loving the brisk November weather in Rhode Island and we are taking advantage of it by doing lots of house stuff outside. We just bought our house in July and it’s a real fixer upper! And we also love taking our Boston Terrier Moose to a local farm where he can explore off-leash!
Izzy says
Outside please!
Angela says
INSIDE PLEASE!
I love curling up on the couch with a blanket and a good book.
Annie P. says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! Taking a walk with my husband on a crisp fall day is the ultimate treat.
Kim M says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!
Meagan says
OUTSIDE, PLEASE! I love camping!
Tayo says
Outside please! But only when it’s nice and warm. I swear I transform into a mean ol’ grouch in the winter.
Em says
Outside PLEASE!
I am happiest wandering around in the woods– so peaceful and beautiful.
katie says
inside please!
I heart my fab tv, and i love spending the day reading in bed with a fluffy down comforter.
Susanne N. says
INSIDE PLEASE!! i love taking pictures of nature, etc. but give me a mall or a good book while i’m snuggled in a cozy blanket, thank you very much!
lauren says
INSIDE PLEASE!
with tomato soup and a grilled cheese on this rainy day!
Mary says
Outside please!!
rebann says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
Fresh air does wonders for the soul, whether it’s because I’m walking my dog or taking her to the park, out for a run, soaking in the sun while absorbed in a book or sipping a glass of wine al fresco with my man, I always feel refreshed after being outside.
Susan says
Outside Please! I love hiking, camping, and outdoor sports!
Calliope says
INSIDE PLEASE!
sofa, blanket, fire, house magazines, tea
pjs, bed, laptop, blogs, tv
friends, pizza night, dvds
carpet, baby, puzzles, cookies, milk

Kendall says
Outside Please
Terri says
INSIDE PLEASE! This was a hard one because I LOVE both!!
Marianne says
Outside PLEASE!
It’s snowshoe season where I live in the Canadian north and yesterday I volunteered at my first dog mushing race…while I’m not as hard core as the skijorers (cross country skiing while harnessed to two or three pulling dogs) I’ll never get over the feeling of standing out in the bush watching the snow fall and hearing the ravens call!
Though I won’t lie and say I didn’t love coming home to tea and slanket cozyness :-)
Laurie says
INSIDE PLEASE-
though in the sunroom where I am surrounded on three sides by glass. I just like my comfort I guess.
by the way this is my favorite ever give away and I might just have to buy a few of these myself if I don’t win. I go to the Maine coast as often as I can (usually only once a year) but my photos aren’t half so magical.
Lauren says
INSIDE PLEASE! Especially on this rainy chilly day, there would be nothing better than the couch, a duvet, some popcorn, and a big book!
mary says
Outside Please!
Summer has always been my favorite season. Whether it’s reading a good book on the beach, biking or even a little kayaking…it’s better outside.
Julie says
Outside Please…Nothing better than a crisp fall day, colorful leaves at your feet, warm sun peeking through, a cup of cider warming your hands, and a light scarf to accompany you to a cider mill, football game, or just a walk outside.
Jen says
Outside please! Even in cold weather!
Sara says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
I enjoy reading a book in my hammock, taking a long walk, or spending the day at the beach!
Miranda says
INSIDE PLEASE — because these would look fabulous in my newly painted living room. Just what I’m looking for, I think!
