Fab Freebie: More Than Words

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below (along with some sweet discounts)!***

Before we announce our winners, let’s first get to two consolation prizes: discounts! Get 15% off your WordGarden order with code YoungHouseLove15 and get 15% off of your Everywhere We Look order with code YHL15.

As for our two winners, random.org has selected… Leah (who “definitely” loves typographic art) and Rebecca A. (who loves books and typographic art – which seemed to be a trend). Congrats ladies!

This week’s pair of prizes (for a pair of winners, no less) come from two Etsy sellers who have a way with words. Namely, they turn the written word into stylish pieces for your home. The first of which, WordGarden, takes text and graphics to give simple pillows a chic European flair – from bicycles and birdcages to his and hers sets. And two of you will be scoring a pair of pillows in any size and any design.

The other half of this week’s prize comes from Everywhere We Look, who creates book page wreaths that could be right out of Anthropologie. And each of this week’s winners will get a large-sized wreath (i.e over 250 pages turned into a 21″ wreath) that’s custom made just for them.

Everywhere We Look Wreath

  • PRIZE: Two pillows of any size from WordGarden and a large custom wreath from Everywhere We Look
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “WORD ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us what form you particularly love seeing words take? Are you a sucker for typographic art (like me)? Have you never met a funny t-shirt or bumper sticker that you didn’t like? Do song lyrics do it for you? Or are you a traditionalist and simply love words in books, poems, and love notes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, July 20th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States and Canada
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from WordGarden and Everywhere We Look.

    Word me! Love words. I majored in words. Words rule! Love them in books and on the wall–typographic art is fantastic!

    Word Me! I love typography art and how changing font, size, orientation it takes on even more meaning. My husband is a graphic designer so I appreciate his skill. :)

    WORD ME!! I actually love seeing words in the form of return addresses on envelopes. It’s so fun to get letters in the mail, and seeing the return address of a friend or family member makes it so much more fun! Especially with all the cute return address stamps available on Etsy. :)

    I’m a sucker for word games – any and every one of ’em. (maybe because I love words. Maybe because I suck at strategy games)

    I like the spoken word, particularly when people are extra generous with their please and thank yous.

    WORD ME!

    So my mom lives with me now (I know, it seems crazy), and she leaves me post-its and other handwritten notes around the house since our schedules are always so off. It’s really sweet!

    WORD ME!!! I love words period. The written word, in artwork, in fashion, and in the books that I can’t resist buying. Set me loose in a used book store and I lose ALL sense of time!

    Word me! Since I am not very articulate, I love borrowing words from others. Therefore I find my inspiration from books, songs, and movies.

    WORD ME!
    I don’t know if I could pick a favorite form. I think words have a way of making anything more meaningful and beautiful.

    {{WORD ME!}} I love typography — it can be song lyrics, poetry, anything in beautiful print has my heart! My new found obsession is cross stitching on embroidery hoops — fantastic!

    I’m a sucker for word tattoos. They are (usually) so meaningful and a cool insight to what that persons like and believes in.
