Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: Let’s Be Fronds

Fab Freebie: Let’s Be Fronds

You guys ready for some free stuff? We thought so.

Our latest freebie comes from the fine folks at Art.com, where you can find an abundance of (surprise!) art for your home. From photography prints and painted canvases to vintage signs and woven tapestries, they’ve gotcha covered. In fact their website says they offer the world’s largest selection of art for your home (and after spending a good 30 minutes browsing their catalogue we don’t doubt it). We’re particularly fond of their framed botanical series, shown below.

So it should come as no surprised that we secured one of them for this giveaway – specifically the framed austral fern valued at $99 (the one in the middle of the bottom shelf). This real fern frond comes preserved in a 16″ x 19″ frame and is perfect for anyone looking to start (or add to) a botanical art collection. Hmmm, I’m actually thinking it would look great in our half bath…

As usual, entry for this giveaway is easy. Just comment on this post by 8pm on Wednesday, Jan 14th with the words “BE MY FROND” and tell us where you’d hang your fancy new fern (if you happen to be the lucky one chosen by random.org).  We’ll be announcing the winner by the end of the week and, so sorry, but this contest is confined to the continental U.S.

Good luck! And if you’re new to our giveaways, find out more about ’em here.

    BE MY FROND! I absolutely love nature-inspired prints and this beauty would be perfect in our bathroom … maybe someday we’d add its friends for the very chic layout in the picture above.

    I would hang this in my bedroom. We’ve got one wall just waiting for something pretty and one of my accent colors is green – so this would be perfect.

    Be my frond! We just finished remodeling the bathroom in our 1962 ranch. I have been searching for a piece of art for this space, and since I am committed to all artwork in our house having a story behind it, this would be perfect! (And, it would complement our green tile beautifully!)

    You already are my fronds! And I’d put it in my bedroom, once I finally get it painted. (How long have I been saying that? “…once I get it painted?” LOL)

    Thanks!
