Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Blast From The Past

Fab Freebie: Blast From The Past

It’s Monday. Or, as we like to call it: Giveaway Day.

This week’s prize comes from Sweetshorn Vintage, a truly one-of-a-kind Etsy shop that boasts an eclectic collection of old school goodies. Their fun mixture of home decor, art and “tiny treasures” are sure to inject equal parts fun, quirk and retro style to your home.

We couldn’t do this unique shop justice by offering up just one prize – so we’ve got four that our winner can choose from. There’s a Pair of Porcelain Birds or a Trio of Tiered Vases that would look great atop a bookshelf. Or if kitchen decor is on your mind lately, you can pick a Set of Five Mod Glasses (they’re so Mrs. Robinson) or the Copper Anchor Plate (Sherry is dying over this one). In short: no matter what the winner chooses, they can’t go wrong.

To enter, just comment on this post with the words “I’M A BLAST!” by Wednesday, March 11 at 8pm EST. Then go ahead and tell us what makes you a blast to be around (besides your good taste in blogs). Is it your sense of humor or dry sarcasm? Do you play a mean game of Scrabble? Or perhaps you have an uncanny ability to belt out Britney songs? Don’t be shy – we wanna know what hanging out with you in real life might be like. Oh, and the winner’s choice of the four prize options can be shipped to the US and Canada. Only one entry per e-mail as usual.

    I’m a blast! And those birdies are oh-so-sweet! Hmm, I would say I’m a blast because I’m always up for anything… I’ll try pretty much anything (except certain foods!) once!

    I’M A BLAST!!!!

    My first summer job was setting up fireworks for the nighttime show at the Rodeo in my town. So, literally, I am a blast.

    Outside the Entertainment Detonantion Industry (yes, I totally just made that up!), I’m a blast because I have an uncanny ability to memorize useless facts. For example, what bird is nicknamed the “Gooney Bird”? (I was going to make this a cliffhanger and not answer until you picked me as the winner, but I thought that might be rude. It’s the Albatross.)

    LOVE this giveaway! LOVE LOVE LOVE this blog!
