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…

    INSIDE PLEASE!

    At least during this time of year. As soon as there is the hint of cold air, I want to be bundled up on the couch. But when the weather gest nicer, I’m dying to get out. Ultimate cabin fever by April.

    My favorite thing to do or be is outside backpacking or hiking. I love snowshoeing in the winter and raking leaves in the fall. Yeah for nature!(But a good old rainy day curled up with a book is pretty nice too!)

    INSIDE PLEASE! I love the outdoors, but my allergies give me fits, so sadly I am never able to enjoy them for long :( However, I have to agree with Marina — I am pretty partial to taking a little stroll when I get cabin fever.

    These prints are so beautiful :) I would love them for our home, but if I won, I know they would make a perfect Christmas gift for my mother and stepfather.

    Ohh can’t pick just one.

    Love hiking and walking and beaching it up.

    Also give me a cup of hot tea, a comforter and a girly movie and I am happy.

    I am fickle when it comes to the great outdoors. Too hot, too humid, too cold? Too windy, too shady, too much sun? Being inside is just so much more predictable! However, if you gave me 75 degrees, low humidity, partly sunny all of the time, I’d happily change my answer!

    Sorry, but I just cannot choose!! It depends on who I am with and the mood that I am in!! I love to hike and I love to lay around. I love to take long walks and I love to walk briskly around the mall. There is too much great stuff in life to do to restrict myself to either inside or out!!

    INSIDE PLEASE! I’d like to say I’m one of those outdoorsy types but when push comes to shove, you’ll probably find me inside on the couch. I do love warm, sunny days and I love the ocean but I just don’t get out in them very often.

    INSIDE PLEASE (whilst thinking about the outside).

    I’m an indoors person by nature, but my passion and career has always been zoology. Therefore, I spend a lot of time outdoors. However, if I could, a part of me wishes I could be an old-timey “armchair zoologist” and spend my days thinking about the outdoors from the warmth and comfort of the indoors.

    I’ve always been an outdoor lover, all seasons of the year. That’s one of the things I love about the Northeast is that we get to experience all the fun activities each season has to offer.
