***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
We began getting into the Halloween spirit last week (and there’s more where that came from) so we thought we’d use this week’s freebie to give one lucky person to chance to add some serious spook to their space. And we’re doing it thanks to two of our favorite collaborators: Skull-A-Day and Cardboard Safari.
Skull-A-Day is the brainchild of our good friend Noah Scalin. His yearlong project of creating skulls out of ordinary (pencils, rice) and not-so-ordinary (butterflies, vegemite) materials begat a Webby-award winning website, a book, art exhibits, an appearance on Martha Stewart and a whole bunch of other cool stuff. And now this local celeb is offering up two skull-tastic art prints for one lucky reader – the United Skull of America print (it’s a skull made out of US states!) and an Ornamental Skull print (in all of its ornate glory) – which will both bring some eerie style to your home this month (and the other eleven if you’re so inclined).
Plus, this week’s winner will score two great pieces from Cardboard Safari, who you may remember from their rhino / rocket giveaway a few months ago. This time they’re dishing out their Halloween designs – the spooky skull wreath and the tabletop puzzle skull (which was designed by Noah, btw). Both are made from recycled cardboard, in your choice of brown or white (which can also be painted any color you please).

- PRIZE: United Skull of America & Ornamental Skull prints from Skull-A-Day, Skull Wreath & Puzzle Skull from Cardboard Safari

SKULL ME!
The best costume by far was one my younger brother did when he was 12.
See Halloween was a big deal in my house. Mom would take all four of us kids out in August and we’d pick out sewing patterns and she’d spend September and October sewing. Needless to say we had the coolest costumes. But eventually, we reached the age where we were “too old”
Of course when this happened we were distraught, atleast my brother was. His solution was to reuse costumes from past years. Unfortunately, the only one he could find was my princess dress. So, of course he donned a black mask and was Marie Antionette. And we’ll never let him forget the time he wore a princess dress, on purpose, in public
