If you guys haven’t heard of papernstitch before, you’ve gotta check it out. It’s another great online source for handmade art (prints, photos, knits, etc) that’s curated monthly to exhibit a fresh crop of handpicked artists for you to shop and draw inspiration from. Might we suggest bookmarking it for your upcoming holiday gift shopping?
This week, papernstitch is giving away a set of four photographic prints from one of their favorite photographers: Allison Trentelman of Rocky Top Studio. Allison is a nature photographer whose snowy birds and forest floor photo collections almost feel like they were shot in some fairy tale world (actually the Maine coast – but we still wouldn’t be surprised to spot a nymph or two in the background). We love that they let you bring both a bit of nature and lighthearted whimsy to your walls.
So here’s how you can score a dose of outdoors for your indoors this week:
- PRIZE: Set of four 7″ x 7″ prints (Tufted Titmouse, Little Mushrooms, Droplets and Pixie Cup) from Rocky Top Studio courtesy of papernstitch.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “OUTSIDE PLEASE” or “INSIDE PLEASE” because…
- BONUS QUESTION: …this week we wanna know if you consider yourself to be more of an outdoorsy or an indoorsy person. Is your perfect day spent out in the sun, surrounded by nature- maybe even camping under the stars? Or would you prefer being inside – maybe shopping somewhere, checking out a museum or movie, or even just snuggled in the comfort of your own home?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, November 25th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: To anyone, anywhere!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!
PS: Stay tuned for a generous discount from Rocky Top Studio when we announce our winner on Thursday. Let’s call it a little Thanksgiving present…

OUTSIDE PLEASE!
But only if it’s warm out and there is a body of water within sight. Otherwise, I’ll be on the couch!
Kristi says
“INSIDE PLEASE”
I love them both to be honest. I love being outside and enjoying nature and the fresh air but if I had to chose, I’d prefer inside tucked in my bed on a cold, rainy day.
Carrie says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! I definitely used to be an indoors person, but I think my husband has successfully changed that. Now, when I think about an ideal Sunday afternoon, the vast majority of my favorite options are outside. And I’m looking forward to getting more snow around here so that we can go snowshoeing soon!
Destine says
Outside please!
But only when it’s sunny, warm, or at least mild. I’m from the south, and we generally have nice weather. But I’ve recently moved to Chicago and at least for now, I prefer to be inside and warm :)
Nakiya says
INSIDE PLEASE
I love my house, I love my bed, I love my recliner, I love blankets, I love fireplaces. :)
thanks for the giveaway!
Kim says
INSIDE PLEASE!
As much as I love doing things outside, I definitely find myself trending towards more things inside.
Colette says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
My family and I love to Geocache, go camping, hiking, ride our bikes…anything to be outside in the summertime!
Lauri says
Outside Please! But not to far! I haven’t camped in awhile and dont know if I have it in me, but sitting outside in the backyard, walks in the park etc are essential.
amy says
INSIDE PLEASE! With wine and knitting and a good book, maybe a little Buffy on the television.
Michael says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
Nothing better than being outside in the sun.
shellee says
inside please!
Malibou says
OUTSIDE, YES PLEASE!
Those photos are beyond lovely. I want to be exactly outside where they were taken.
Emily says
INSIDE PLEASE!
If I’m being completely honest with myself, I’m probably more of an inside person, loving going to dinner, movies, other entertainment-like stuff. BUT my husband and kids LOVE to be outside, so I aspire to love that as much as they do, too! The pictures are lovely…
Jennifer P says
Outside please!
I prefer to spend the day in the sun outside!
Amanda says
Outside Please!
I love being outside! I grew up in the woods so my brother and I were always outside growing up. We would just explore for hours at a time, and we had plenty of room to run and play during all seasons of the year.
Jen says
outside please!!
even though I spend most of my day indoors and connected to a computer, my dream is to work on a small organic farm. being outdoors just relaxes me, makes me reexamine my priorities. nature has such a perfect balance, and it helps me to remember that things come and go in their own time and there is no use worrying, because everything is gonna be alright :)
Laura says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! I love the feeling of warm sunshine! Missing it this time of year!
Asheley says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
Love to hike and camp. Where I live, it takes a little while to get to trails where you don’t hear road noise, so I don’t get to do these things as often as I’d like.
Emily says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
Most of the time I would prefer to be outside enjoying the beauty of it all. I love running/walking outside, hiking, and taking pictures outside. My husband and I love to vacation to spots of unique beauty too.
Martha says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!
Spending time outside is my preference when the weather is nice. When it is snowy, there is no place like home!
Claudette says
Inside Please!
Extreme weather gets to me and I tend to avoid it at all costs. Sometimes that means that I do stay inside a lot. Luckily, I have my husband and our newly adopted kitten to keep me company.
Julia Rechsteiner says
OUTSIDE PLEASE
I love being outside doing just about anything – as long as the weather is nice I’m a happy girl. I would love to bring a little of that inside with these prints. Fingers crossed!
Lindy says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!! I’m defiantly an outdoor person. I love my plants and my garden!!!
kimberly gibson says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
So your blog is my new addiction…. I live in Lynchburg VA and was turned onto your blog when my soon to be mother-in-law sent us the images of your home because she bought a home in Richmond with the same layout. She thought this blog would be perfect for my fiancee and myself (which it is) since we have just bought a new home and are always for looking for ways to make it represent us on our high school teacher budgets.
Thanks for all you do!

Rita says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
I love the outdoor… oh well also the indoor if it is like yours <3

Heather J says
Inside/Outside Please
I love to have a nice mix of both. I love to snuggle up on the couch and relax, but I also love to be outside and feel the sun on my skin.
Lisa says
Outside please!
Snowboarding in the winter, gardening in the spring, hitting the beach in the summer and hiking in the fall!! That pretty much sums it up!
Shanelle says
Inside Please!!!!:)
Lesley says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
I’m a pretty outdoorsy gal, though I didn’t grow up that way. In fact, it was my husband who first took me camping when we were dating and from that point on I was bit by the outdoors-bug. There are times when I do love to loaf around at home, but I definitely start to get antsy when I haven’t spent enough time outdoors.
Kelly K. says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
I grew up on my family’s dairy farm in MN, so I love being outside. Now, when I go visit my family, I spend a lot of the time in the barn doing chores and milking cows with them!
Tracey says
INSIDE PLEASE
I guess overall I’m more of an indoor person – I love a day at home cuddling on the couch, doing crafts, or reading a good book. But in nice weather, I definitely love going for a run or playing some sports outdoors.
Tricia says
Outside please because we experience all four seasons and I can be inside and do inside things in the cold of winter. So in the spring, summer, and fall, I like to be out gardening or going on day trips, finding dog friendly places to go with our Lab… Love the pics!!
lene says
I like to spent time outside but I prefer to be active when I’m out. If I want to spent some quiet time or take a break, I’d rather go inside and stay there.
Margaret D says
INSIDE PLEASE!
I love being home and snuggling with my husband! There is no place I’d rather be than camped out on the couch watching a movie or reading a book laying in his arms. But when it’s nice out we are outside doing a lot of fun things or taking pictures.
Danielle says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! I love being outside – either at the beach in the summertime, camping in the mountains during the fall/spring, roasting marshmellows by the firepit on our patio… I could go on!
OrangeG says
Inside please!
Outside if it involves the lake or river.
Alison (a girl in her element) says
OUTSIDE PLEASE! I love spending time outside, but since I work from home and many times the weather is too hot here in Vegas, so I spend whatever time I can outside.
rachel h says
inside please!
unless we’re talking about a photo shoot… then i would definitely prefer to be outside!
grace says
Outside please
Anywhere in nature…
Tensy says
INSIDE PLEASE! I am definitely a curl up with a good book inside my home kinda gal. Luckily, I have a lovely family room with floor to ceiling banks of windows on two sides, so I can view nature as I curl up in my favorite chair, draped with my handknit afghan, and a roaring fire in the fireplace…ahhh…heaven!
Lisa says
INSIDE PLEASE!
i love curling up inside with a book/movie and good company
Tashia D says
“OUTSIDE PLEASE”
My husband and I love camping, hiking, kayaking, lying on the beach and anything else we can do outside!! Although, I pretty much only participate in the outdoor activities when the weather is warm!
Jen says
INSIDE PLEASE! Unless we are in Hawaii, then I’m an outside girl.
Jackie says
Outside Please!
I love warm weather and going to the beach. I’m already counting down the days until Memorial Day!
Denise says
OUTSIDE/INSIDE PLEASE!
I love being outside when the sun is shining, however, when it’s cold and raining, I much prefer being indoors baking or reading.
kate says
Outside Please!!
I prefer taking trips to the CO mountains over shopping in a big city, have been on too many camping trips to count, and love working outside in our yard.
Jessica K says
INSIDE PLEASE.
I love snuggling up with my husband and watching movies.
Cuban says
iNDOORS? OUTDOORS? It totally depends on the weather! But I’ll definitely be INDOORS finding the perfect spot if I win those photos.
Pat B. says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!
I love being in the fresh outdoors! We have a little cabin in the woods down a maple tree-lined dirt road in northeast PA. I love to walk with the dog down the road and listen to the wind in the trees and sometimes my neighbor stops to chat while she’s riding by on her horse … no matter what’s going on, I feel better after that.
Kelsey says
OUTSIDE PLEASE!!
Don’t get me wrong – I love curling up on the couch with a book on a rainy day as much as the next person, but my favorite place on earth is oceanside with the sun shining on my face. These photographs rock – thanks for the fun giveaway!
