***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!

“PUMP IT UP” & “TURN IT DOWN”
A balance between the two
Kelsey McCorkle says
TURN IT DOWN
I would love some of this new art for the relaxing dinner parties I plan to hold in my home once I get married this August!
Cori says
PUMP IT UP- My summers are a paradox…calming tasks like gardening, and trail running with the pup in the woods paired with a blasting IPOD of old school B.Speers and Lady Gaga (despite how weird they both are I love to run to their music LOVE IT!!!)
Angela says
TURN IT DOWN
Dunne' says
It really depends….there are definitely days where I like to be in a quiet setting and enjoy the peacefulness of my surroudings but I love, love, love being around other people, lively music and in a fun environment!
Kim @ CoffeeandBerries says
TURN IT DOWN
…for the most part.
I usually like to spend my time chilling with a few friends, drinking coffee or making dinner and watching a movie.
However, every so often, I feel the need to dance it out with a ton of people! :)
Margaret D says
TURN IT DOWN!
I’m a mello person. I like to have fun but for the most part I like quiet.
shannon says
Turn it down!
A few years ago I might have said “pump it up,” but I’m enjoying quieter moments more and more now.
Those art prints are wonderful!
Natalie G. says
PUMP IT UP [and turn it down]
I am most productive with the pump it up lifestyle, and rebalance and relax in the turn it down atmosphere.
Jessica K says
PUMP IT UP!
I love having lots of fun things to do, especially during the summer.
Dori says
TURN IT DOWN! I prefer quiet times. My loud days are done – had one too many in college ;)
Kati says
Ummm … tough call on the Pump It Up vs. Turn It Down. I’d say I’m more of a Turn It Down person. But there are times when I enjoy turning up the music and dancing around the living room. And who doesn’t like laughing?
natalie G. says
TURN IT DOWN (and pump it up)
I need energy & quiet in order to keep everything balanced.
Lara says
I’m typically a PUMP IT UP person because I live in New York City- enough said. However, I’m trying to move back to VA (sound familiar?) so should probably consider myself more of a TURN IT DOWN person lately. I’m definitely trying to move towards a quieter lifestyle.
Vhe Ferrari says
TURN IT DOWN
I love a healthy balance of both, but if I’d have to choose, I’d prefer a quiet, relaxing day at home. :)
Lindsay says

I’m a loud busy body, gotta keep moving!

“Pump it up” AND “turn it down” pump it up when I’m with people…turn it down when I’m by myself…Mama’s gotta recharge! : ) Love you guys!

Definitely PUMP IT UP.
Followed shortly after by most certainly TURN IT DOWN.
:-)
Rachel says
TURN IT DOWN!
So many hours of the day are lively and busy, so I savor opportunites for quiet time to do as I please. My husband like to keep the TV on for background noise even when no one is watching it. Three years later and I’m still not used to that!
Rhea says
PUMP IT UP! and TURN IT DOWN! Totally depends on the situation…

Turn it down. I prefer a quiet lifestyle with occasional pump it up moments.

TURN IT DOWN – I’m one of the quietest people I know!
Kelly says
Pump it Up and Turn it Down!
I have two young active children so our lives are pretty pumped on a daily basis and I love the excitement and energy. However, when I can find them, I love the quiet moments. Especially on a rainy day with a good book.
Jenny R says
TURN IT DOWN!
Blair R says
“TURN IT DOWN”…
intimate conversations and great books all the way

Both settings sound lovely! Those prints are super cute! I love the go fly a kite one!
Sydney says
Pump it up and down! Depends on the day! More of a down person but u love the up part of a social dinner party with friends. I left the extreme pump it up days in college!
Lindze says
TURN IT DOWN! I’m very laid back & prefer a more casual setting for my socializing! :)
Jamie @ CherryOrchid says
Turn it down! I spend all day like the energizer bunny so in my off time I like it quiet and peaceful.
Jen says
PUMP IT UP!
Alicia says
PUMP IT UP!
I tend to get a little wacky spending too much time alone without other people’s noise :-)
Maddie E says
PUMP IT DOWN?
I love to laugh and sing along to the radio, but I love the peace and quite of nature just as much :D
Jude says
PUMP IT UP!! (then TURN IT DOWN a wee while later…!!)
We have a busy house – 4 kids, friends and family popping in and out, the radio on all day long and a husband who enjoys a bit of Guitar Hero action…laughing, chatting, singing, crying – constant noise!! Love it and wouldn’t have it any other way…but once it’s all quiet in the evening, there’s nothing nicer than sitting on the deck (or cosied up on the sofa) and not having to say anything at all.
Was just looking at these prints the other day – I definitely need one (or two!) in my life – they are gorgeous. Good luck everyone! xx
Jodi says
pump it up!
Catherine M. says
TURN IT DOWN
Most of the time I prefer a tranquil home.
Allison R. says
Pump it up!
I’m in college, so life is unavoidably crazy- but I love it! I know there will be a time in my life when things quiet down, so I might as well live it up while I can :)
E @ Oh! Apostrophe says
PUMP IT UP
Love the one with the house on it…might have to get it even if I don’t win!
Charity says
TURN IT DOWN
I mostly love the quiet life: cooking, walking, embroidery and sewing, reading, napping, etc.
I love the home picture especially too!
Saima says
TURN IT DOWN…there’s nothing like a bit of peace and quiet :)

Turn it down! There’s enough commotion in my own head… I don’t need any more : )

I like to have fun but I really like the quiet moments in life.

I like the quiet life and the simple pleasures in life like chocolate croissants, a good glass of cold white wine, or a smile from my fiance!
Kari Shepherd says
Turn it down for me!
