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/OUTSIDE, PLEASE!!!!

    The Summers here are very short, so we try to be outside as much as humanly possible. But, during the winters (which are long, and cold, and snowy, with less than 6 hours of daylight), we are inside people. These prints would be a perfect reminder of the outdoors, as we’re trying to stay cozy and warm indoors!!

    Snuggled up inside is the way to go! I live in Seattle, so being outside always equals soggy shoes and frizzy hair. Ick!

    BOTH! INSIDE AND OUTSIDE PLEASE! Living in the midwest means you have to love both – spring and fall you want to spend every moment you can outside, summer and winter can be so extreme that you want to hole up inside.

    Not much of an outdoorsy person. I like cool fall mornings and breezy evenings but otherwise I don’t dally much in outdoorsman activities. I would much rather be at home playing online or snuggling on the couch or sitting at a coffee shop reading…. much more me. :)

    OUTSIDE PLEASE because looking back on all of my adventures I have had, big or small, most of them are outdoors. Being outside lets me be the big kid at heart I love to be; be that snowboarding, swinging, jumping into a pile of leaves, building a sandcastle, listening to nature in a hammock, playing soccer in the rain. Nothing can be being outside!

    OUTSIDE PLEASE! I love being outside, especially going hiking and getting to spend the WHOLE day in the great outdoors. I can think of lots of perfect days, most of which would be spent in the woods or by a lake or on a river. Or in the desert, which is where I live and have come to appreciate more than I thought I would. Desert sunsets – there’s nothing else like them…
