Yesterday was our sixth wedding anniversary. So in memory of our 7/7/07 wedding, we’re hosting a giveaway that combines the traditional gifts from your 1st anniversary (paper) and 6th (sugar) because, well, 1 + 6 = 7 and you know we try to squeeze in a seven whenever we can. First up is Rifle Paper Company. We hung some of their city art in our old hallway, so we were pumped when they offered up a $500 gift card for one of you. You can grab anything from their art prints, stationery, and wrapping paper to their iPhone cases, recipe boxes, or anything else that suits your fancy. We especially love the personalized heart print in the lower right.
And for your sugar rush, we’ve asked one of our favorite sweetmakers, Snickety-Snacks, to hook someone up with $200 worth of customized treats. You may remember the tasty dragon cookies we bought from them for Clara’s birthday. They can work from any inspiration point, color scheme, or party theme. Oh, and if you live near them (they’re based in Northern VA) you can even order cakes or other goodies.
This $700 prize (oh look, another seven!) can be shipped worldwide too. So just enter using the Rafflecopter widget right here (it might take a second to load, but it should pop up right below this paragraph).
Katie says
Oh pleassseeee Rifle Paper Co. me!!! I’m in LOVE with their products!

Happy (belated) Anniversary, you two! :)

Pick me! I’m in the process of decorating my nursery and would love to have the rifle gift card and sweet treats (for the baby of course!).

I guess giving away wool in the summer is a bit silly. ;) Happy seventh anniversary!

I just wanted to thank you all for doing giveaways that don’t require you to ‘like’ or ‘tweet’ or ‘pin’ a million pages just to enter. Thanks for keeping it simple! Plus your blog rocks, there are so many projects i’ve tackled because you make it accessible.
Amy says

Happy Anniversary!
Diana says
Congratulations!
Just a quick question – are you still announcing giveaway winners on the site or are you just contacting winners through email? I feel like I missed the last giveaway winner!
Thanks for organizing such a great giveaway!
YoungHouseLove says
We email them and do our best to post a PS on a Thursday or Friday post as well, but we always announce the winner in the original post. So whether we add the ps or not, it’s always right there in the rafflecopter box for ya if you scroll back a page or two :)

I live in a cookie-cutter clone house neighborhood and I love being able to say “third on the left, the one with the blue door!”

Love Rifle Paper Co! I was going to try to win their 2013 Cities calendar on ebay but it went for over $80 which is nuts! If you ever plan to get rid of your city art you can send it my way! ;) haha

Also, happy anniversary! :)
YoungHouseLove says

Thank you SO much for just having one entry for your giveaways. I am not a fan having to go here and there and “Like” things or “Follow” things in order to enter.
I enjoy your blog and look forward to the continuing updates of your new wonderful house!
Amanda says
Agreed! I don’t even bother with those crazy giveaways.
And happy anniversary :)
Angela says
Yes please! Happy Anniversay you two!
Ame says
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! My 8th was on the 2nd :) Flew by.
Kaara says
happy happy anniversary you two!!! i love your new front door too ;) that’s my fave color ;)
Michelle Z says
Is it weird feeling to have a giveaway post and not have 10k comments to deal with? Do you miss the random answers to your questions people would come up with? Or just thrilled to cut down on that insane amount of emails in your inbox?
YoungHouseLove says
It’s awesome! It definitely gives us more time to plan projects, get materials, or have fun with Clara instead of manually approving thousands of comments, so it feels like a better use of our time :)

Sadie Cassidy says
Looks like the 3 of you had a GREAT Anniversary yesterday! It’s so nice to see you all enjoying everything from the house, your company, summer & especially Clara! My fiance & I are getting married in September, thanks for your wedding post EVERYTHING is coming along. I literally have used it as a model from the beginning! It’s a great resource. We are having cookies in lieu of cake, so the Snickety-Snack gift card would be PERFECT! Icing Cookies are my favorite & Geoff’s are Oreos, so we’ll have both at the wedding, as well as our grandmother’s specialties!!
P.S. I met you 2 in Houston, when you signed my baseball… unfortunately several weeks later my entire collection was stolen when my apartment got broken into. Another reason I could never send you the picture we took b/c my camera was taken with the picture on it. Any chance I can mail you another ball to sign for the new collection? To date, I’ve only replaced 1 ball but it’s a work in progress = )
YoungHouseLove says
Oh no! That stinks! I’ll email you our PO Box address and if you send us a ball we’d be happy to sign it and send it back for you! Thanks for coming out to see us in Houston!

Happy Anniversary!!! OMG – I can’t believe it’s been 6 years! I joined the blog party late and only started reading in 2010, so I am just behind the times. Congrats!
Jodi says
omg, i ADORE rifle paper co. seriously cannot get enough.
happy, happy anniversary, petersiks!
Isabel says
Happy Anniversary!!
And just so I only leave one comment today: I love your blue door! I was totally on the black door bandwagon after reading Katie Bower’s post the other day but now I’m like, “Paint the doors ALL THE COLORS!” I frequently drive past a house with a bright fuchsia door. It’s by a stop sign so I get to gaze at it a bit, and it’s just the cheeriest house ever.

I read your blog everyday and love to follow your projects. I love that you do give aways that seem like real give aways instead of an advertisement scheme. How refreshing! Thanks!
