Fab Freebie: Pump Up The Volume

***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?

Vol25 Robots

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?

Vol25 Bicycle

Vol25 Typewriter

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!

Find more freebie info on our Giveaway FAQs page. Pics courtesy of Vol. 25.

    I’m busy most of my days, and not by choice. Because of that, there is nothing I love more than to be still.

    I have to say that I mostly love love love to be surrounded by all people at all times (wait…what… things go on when I’m not around?!?) But there are some days, (more it seems the older I get) when being by myself is the most wonderful way to reboot.

    love the giveaway!!

    “TURN IT DOWN” – I love to curl up in a quiet room and read a good book. Love the art. Especially the Underwood piece as I grew up near the Samuel Underwood mansion now a park and of course have an old Underwood typewriter that my kids love to play with.

    I absolutely love curling up with my book du jour and relaxing with my toes in the spring grass or under a cozy down blanket in the winter. Give me candle light, some low key tunes, and a bag of popcorn over strobe lights, Lady Ga Ga and vodka tonics anyday!!

    These prints are so perfect for my besties nursery for her newly adopted baby girl! I hope, I hope, I hope I get picked! :)

    I like it quiet and peaceful. I HATE it when the tv is on in the background. I like slow music, something calm.. I like to read, talk to friends and take my dog to the woods. You wont find me at parties or other loud places!!
