Fab Freebie: Stars, Butterflies & Teardrops

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

No, I’m not having a psychedelic trip right now – but this week’s giveaway does have us not only seeing stars but butterflies, teardrops, and lots of vibrant colors. It’s actually thanks to two crafty Etsy sellers: The Starcraft and This Neck of The Woods, who’ve paired up for this paper-decor-tastic prize that’ll be coming to TWO lucky readers (no matter where you live in the world).

StarLand Logos

Let’s first meet The Starcraft. They create beautiful mobiles with cascading tiers of hand-folded moravian paper stars. Appropriately named for various constellations, the three styles our winners can choose from this week could make quite the playful statement in any room in your home. There’s the 3-tiered Vela (which also comes in a cool or warm monochromatic version), the 4-tiered Orion (whose stars are dusted with glitter) or the larger 5-tiered Cassiopia (which boasts 20 stars- six more than the others).

This Neck of The Woods also creates wonderful paper decor, particularly in the form of graceful garlands that could dress up any mantle, light fixture, or even a plain ol’ wall for a party (or heck, on a regular basis). They’ll be giving our winners their choice of two garlands- whether they have a geometric dot design, a posh scallop pattern, a subtle teardrop motif, or a feminine butterfly design.

Both Etsy sellers will also share a special discount on Thursday, but for now let’s get to the entry details for ya:

  • PRIZE: One star mobile from The Starcraft (choose the Vela, Orion, or Cassiopia) and two garlands from This Neck of The Woods (choose from their dot, scallop, teardrop, or butterfly designs)
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M A STAR!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … let’s dream a bit this week. If you could achieve stardom for one particular skill or achievement (real or imagined) what would it be? Would you want to be a world famous singer? A prize-winning inventor? Perhaps an accomplished designer?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, August 11th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two!
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Worldwide!
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck…

    If I could achieve stardom it would be as a singer like Lady Gaga or Britney Spears. That’s strictly between us though ;)

    Baby, I’m a STAR! (I love that song!)

    I would love to be famous for — or just earn any money on — designing T-shirts, which I currently do for free for my derby league. I’d love that to be something I did all the time …

    I’d love to be celebrated for writing! I think I’ve always wanted to be a famous writer – now i have ideas, but the one thing keeping me from stardom is i’ve never tried! I’m sure thats going to be true of so many of us – perhaps this will be a push!

    I’M A STAR! I have had dreams of being a crazy-awesome breakdancer since I was six. Sadly, I am maybe the worst dancer, oh, EVER. But I would love to be famous for being amazing at it!

    I’M A STAR! I’d love to be a famous philanthropist. Actually, not even famous. I’d love to have money to give away to the charities that need it. And live in my humble life in my humble little abode. ?

    If I could achieve stardom for just one thing it would be successfully networking with non-profits worldwide to provide comprehensive services to youth!

    I would love to be a famous dancer :) It may be because I’ve become obsessed with So You Think You Can Dance, and wish my parents would have put me in dance when I was young :)
