Say Grace Freebie Winners!
Your entries on this week’s giveaway totally win the award for “most unexpectedly amusing bonus question responses.” Plus they sparked Sherry and I to share some funny foreign phrases that we learned back in high school when she took French and I took Latin. My favorite was definitely a French idiom that Sherry mentioned which meant “that’s the last straw” but literally translated to “that’s the end of the beans.” I’ve been using the English translation around the house quite frequently lately. Perhaps I could even convince Grace Hester Designs to turn it into a print?
Then again, it’s probably best that we let her stick to the graphic and playful designs that she’s already so good at. After all, there are plenty of eye-pleasing options for our TWO winners to choose from with their $50 gift cards. And now the rest of you can get in on the fun. Just enter “YOUNGHOUSE” at checkout to get 20% off any item in her shop through March 4th (regular shipping fees still apply).
But back to our two lucky winners. We had a multi-lingual chat with random.org and it happily provided us with two random names: Jermaine D (who didn’t realize she spoke a smidge of Hindi) and Diana (who can’t seem to stop saying “Yes” in Spanish). Congrats! We’d love to know what you two will be snagging with your freebie gift cards (just be sure to tell us in English…).
Oh and next week’s giveaway will be a nice wrap-up to this month of love, especially for those who didn’t get everything they wanted for V-day last weekend (yup, that’s a clue).

Yea!! I am so excited to win some great items from Grace Hester Designs! I have been eyeing the “Peace, Love, Joy” in Korean or maybe the wedding vows. Thanks so much!
Thanks to everyone who participated! I am liking the “that’s the end of the beans” quote (two snaps) and the hundreds of funny ones within the comments list.
Looking forward to working with Jermaine and Diana to select their wins!
Cheers,
Grace Hester Designs

I was almost in shock when I found out that I won! I just recently started reading the blog (after being snowed in for a week) and thought there was no harm in entering. My husband’s and my 1 year anniversary is coming up in April and my brother is expecting his first child, there are so many options to choose from I don’t know which I will pick. Thank you so much!
Congrats to the winners!!
i just ordered something and i cannot get the YOUNGHOUSE code to work for 20% off. Can you verify that code??
Hi Jennifer,
Sorry for the confusion but full payment on the transaction has to be completed which will then allow me to apply a refund via PayPal within 24 hours. Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Grace
Thanks for coming to the rescue with that info Grace!

Jermaine and Jennifer, congrats! I have emailed both of you now so it’s time to go shopping! :o)
Cheers,

I just wanted to say that I ordered something from Grace Hester Designs, and I am so happy with it! She accommodated my many wants for the print, it was sent very quickly, and it looks amazing. I just wanted to say thank you for referring me to her site! Unfortunately, I forgot to use the YOUNGHOUSE code, but the print was well worth it anyway!
That’s so good to hear! We love Grace Hester Designs and we’re so glad they treated you right.
