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

| By John Petersik | March 9, 2009 | 457 Comments

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! I am a blast because I am adaptable and can be with all types and varieties of individuals and it allows me to be more creative with everything I do in my life. It also makes me interesting to be around. :) (That was a little weird “bragging” on myself)….

    I’M A BLAST!

    I’m a proud Canadian who is happy to be included in this chance to win. More importantly, my kids tell me I’m the mum their friends all wish they had…I always say yes to fun that other adults want no part of!!

    I’m a blast!!! …. at least, my 2 year old seems to think I am. There is a strong possibility that other adults just think I have lost my mind – spending all day every day with a feisty two year old can make one awfully silly!

    I’m a blast!! Why? Because I speak a hundred made-up languages and use a thousand different noises every day, so every conversation with me is like a visit to the zoo. It’s never boring, always confusing, and constantly entertaining!

    My husband and I spend a lot of time laughing – we can find humor in most situations – so I guess that makes me a blast to hang out with!
    I am also EXTREMELY sarcastic :-)

    I have a sense of humor that is both sarcastic and, at times, obnoxious – which is apparently surprising to many people. At first glance I give off the impression of being fairly serious, I think.
