***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
I’m gonna bust out some flashback lingo from YHL circa 2008: prepare to swoon. This week’s giveaway is from our lovely sponsor Jessica Rose at Vol. 25, home to some of the most charming art around. I mean, how can you not fall for these robotic lovebirds?
The great thing is that Jessica’s artwork comes in the form of prints, t-shirts, rubber stamps, mouse pads, books and even photoshop overlays (so you can add a little hand-drawn flare to a photo). And since we couldn’t even begin to pick just a few favorite items for the giveaway, Jessica’s hooking up TWO of you with $50 gift cards towards anything in her shop (plus there’s a discount awaiting everyone on Thursday so stay tuned for that). Now you that know what’s up for grabs – how ’bout some more eye candy?
And here are all the contest deets:
- PRIZE: A $50 gift certificate towards anything from Vol. 25’s shops on Etsy or Zazzle.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with either the words “PUMP IT UP” or “TURN IT DOWN” depending on…
- BONUS QUESTION: … whether you love a loud and lively lifestyle or you prefer to keep things quiet and peaceful. Do you feel better surrounded by lots of activity, energizing music, or boisterous laughter? Or would you rather find yourself in an intimate conversation, enjoying soothing nature sounds, or quietly reading a book?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 21th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: TWO
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the world! Woo to the hoo.
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Turn it down! My husband and I have happily been leaving the TV off as the weather here warms up. So nice! And love your new sponsor!
jess says
Pump it up!
Kate says
PUMP IT UP!
Lauren says
Turn it down and pump it up!
I love a good mix of both. If I find myself with too much time to rest and enjoy the silence I find myself missing the noise (and vice versa). I like a little of both.
Kate says
Turn it Down!
(Unless of course I’m listening to my iPod) :)

TURN IT DOWN
I love the quiet, especially being able to open the windows and “listen” to the breeze/wind. Too much noise makes me cranky!
AbbyW says
Pump it up AND turn it down! I need both to keep my sanity!
Denise says
PUMP IT UP! I love hanging out with lots of friends and having a great (often loud)time!
Tasha says
PUMP IT UP!
I love when the family gets together and we joke around, play games, and laugh really loud. I’m always ready to go go go!
But there are times when I like calmness, too. :)
Andrea says
TURN IT DOWN!

TURN IT DOWN
A homebody, lately. :)
Alissa says
TURN IT DOWN! Most of the time, but not always :)
Jen says
Turn it down… AND Pump it up!
I think you can’t full enjoy either one without the other. I enjoy going out and being social, but I also appreciate my quiet time greatly. There are occasional weeks where I feel like I hardly have a moment to myself, and those are the times I value my alone time immensely. :) At the same time, I get antsy and miss the outside world when I stay in all the time. So…. both!
Nicole says
TURN IT DOWN…for the most part. I do enjoy “pumping it up” occasionally, but on a day to day basis I enjoy being more mellow.
Alissa says
PUMP IT UP!
jennifer @ take the day off says
Pump it up! As long as it is good music and the laughter of the people I love.

Pump It Up and Turn It Down. I like a good mix of the two!
Barbara Ann says
TURN IT DOWN
April in CT says
*says quietly* turn it down
Peaceful and quiet for me, please! :o)
Brian says
TURN IT DOWN but sometimes you have to PUMP IT UP. I like to maintain things at a calm level, but eventually the passionate part of you takes over and you have to do something silly like sing to your wife in the car when your favorite/inspiring/cheesy song comes on, or your 2 year old wants to dance. The rest of the time can be collected and professional :)
Karen says
Turn It Down!!! I love the idea of having creative stuff all over our house- but right now, I can’t say how creative our space is. This would be a perfect way to to spice it up!
Carol N. says
“TURN IT DOWN” , way down please! Hubs and I were nesting before nesting was in! Our jobs can be super stressful so we love to chill at home either just the two of us or with another couple.
chrystie says
TURN IT DOWN
I can only take so much of the ‘pump it up’ before I need to spend some quiet time. Either way though..as long as you’re enjoying life :)
Rachel S says
I am going to say TURN IT DOWN. Just because (with 4 kids) my true life is pump it up everyday so i treasure a little turn it down time!
Kasia P. says
Pump it up! Life is to enjoy it.;p
Calliope says
TURN IT DOWN!
I love quiet nights at home with my son and husband.
As I really enjoy quiet time by myself with a book or a magazine and a cup of tea.
Brittany Gegan says
TURN IT DOWN!
I’ve always tended to lean towards quieter things. Love reading and feel much more comfortable hanging out with a few friends rather than being at a party
Lilli says
Turn it down AND Pump it up!!!
I think you need both in life. There are those days when you need to get out there and feel the world. Just like you also need to sit back and relax!
Katie says
Pump It Up!…and Turn It Down, lol
About 90% of the time I love being busy and in the middle of it all, but it can be a burn-out, so I love my quiet moments too. Call it the Gemini in me…
Meredith says
PUMP IT UP when it comes to music and friends and TURN IT DOWN when I’m relaxing at home.
HoneyJO says
PUMP IT UP! Good music and laughter is all I need.
Meg says
Turn it down…although that MUST mean I’ve grown up, which I hate to admit. The occasional craziness is fun, but can’t do it constantly. ;-)
young c-m says
TURN IT DOWN – I find that life provides enough hustle and bustle that when I’m home, I want things to be SERENE! A challenge with an infant in the house. :)
Tammy L. says

PUMP IT UP usually music and laughing makes me very happy,I love those robot prints!
Jackie says
Turn it down!!!
I actually don’t mind boisterous laughter and energetic conversation, but when it comes to the feel of my home, I prefer relaxation and calm.
L. Olivia says
PUMP IT UP! I share my crazy laugh with anyone (and everyone) within a mile radius. It’s super loud!
Brianna Young says
PUMP IT UP…AND TURN IT DOWN!
MY HUSBAND AND I LOVE TO PLAY SOME GOOD MUSIC, LAUGH OUR HEADS OFF WITH FRIENDS, AND ENJOY A NIGHT OUT. BUT SOMETIMES ALL I WANT IS A QUIET NIGHT IN!
Tristan says
