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).

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…

    I’M A STAR!

    I’d love to be a famous and popular real estate agent. I love going through houses, and if I was a hot shot, I’d be able to do house tours through the cream of the crop any day of the week!

    I don’t think I would like being famous but if I was, I’d want to be for making a difference in our world or someone’s life.

    I’M A STAR! I would love to be good at sports, particularly those involving a ball. I’m such a huge sports fan, but am seriously terrible at them!

    I really would like to be famous for doing nothing — and making a lot of money while doing it :)

    I would love to be a singer ala Celine Dion. I’m sure everyone at the karaoke bar would love that too :)

    I’ve always had a fantasy that I’d be at some great concert and save the day by replacing the pianist/guitar player/singer who suddenly couldn’t perform. Hasn’t happened yet!

    I’d like to be famous for giving the best presents! Like, a famous gift-giver that always picks out the best gifts to put a smile on the recipient’s face. :)

    Even though I don’t have children yet, to be a “star” in my childrens’ eyes would be a dream come true for me :-)

    but not for my acting. I prefer to be recognized for my reading, which the children tell me is really good.

    I’m a STAR!!

    I still dream about working and living near the ocean. Back before I became a stay-at-home mom, my desire was to be a Marine Biologist. :)

    I would want to be a famous chef. I love cooking and am not bad at it, but nowhere near fame-worthy levels!

    I’m A Star…not quite sure what I would like to be famous for, kind of prefer life in obscurity, wouldn’t mind if our new house made it into Dwell magazine, or something of the like.

    actually in my neck of the woods, people already recognize me due to my job, leading about 1000 volunteers to do tree work & planting :) That;s fame enough for me right now.
