Fab Freebie: Outside In

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

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?

Papernstitch Homepage

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.

Papernstitch Prints

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…

    I’m such an outside person that I actually spent my honeymoon camping at one of the beautiful state parks in our state (my brother wondered why we hadn’t stayed in a hotel and gotten pampered and I said…God pampers me well enough outside under the stars)

    God Bless and have a HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

    OUTSIDE PLEASE :-)

    Definitely an outdoorsy person, preferably romping through the woods with my faithful pups. (Rain, snow, shine, I don’t care… It’s better than being stuck indoors!) I surround my office with plants and pics of my furry friends in the woods to try and soften the harsh impact of the close walls and florescent lights!

    Although I’d like to claim to be a super-outdoorsy person, the fact is, I’d honestly rather be shopping, or snuggling my husband and our puppy on our couch… :)

    “OUTSIDE PRETTY PLEASE!”

    From treking through the wood’s gathering pine cones for home decor to sitting on my new d.i.y porch furniture with Sherry and John’s blog pulled up, nature is my weakness. It is an ultimate stress reliever and the secret to youth and happiness. Hey, what’s better than the fresh smell of newley mowed grass or driving down a winding road just to view the sites of the orange and red tree tops as they are changing in the autumn? The best part is that you can enjoy so many activities outdoors with the ones you love. It’s all about making memories! For a short while, you have the power to stop time.

    Outside Please! Outside where I feel completely free of any pressure to organize, beautify, or clean the “space” because Mother Nature’s aesthetic trumps Martha Stewart’s design no matter the space or season.

    OUTSIDE PLEASE

    I spend every second I can outside on my parent’s 20 acre farm, I can’t get enough of the smell of horses, dirt, trees, and dogs. There is nothing like the smell of a farm – and the dirtier you get the better.

    I love being outside, but I also love doing things inside. I work with kids year-round, so I tend to be outside a lot of the time playing games, going on hikes, etc. I also love to veg out and cuddle up with the boyfriend, watching a movie or our favorite shows.
