HEADS UP! Since baby boy is scheduled to arrive tomorrow, we’re spending some special family time with Clara today. So we’re posting this week’s giveaway early, and hope to stop in later this week (maybe on Thursday?) to officially introduce our little man.
But back to the freebie. This week we’re hooking three people from anywhere in the world up with a $500 Target gift card along with a complete set of our hooks (you can see them all here) in the finish of their choosing. I feel like this is the part where I should bust out an Oprah-esque “You get an octopus! You get an octopus!” but it just doesn’t have the same ring to it…
Please use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter (it might take a second to load, but it should eventually pop up below this paragraph). This giveaway is available to anyone anywhere! (and if you’re international and don’t have a Target, you’ll win a $500 Visa card with your hook collection instead).

Nice post, John. Here’s a reply haiku:
Between high production and birth
Pops the most creative rhyme for Octopus
The adjective John uses: Oprah-esque

Thanks for the give away. Having gone through one emergency and one planned c-section, I have to just tell you, the second time will be a piece of cake. You will know what to expect and you will be ready for it. Things are going to go great for you guys and before you know it, you will be off your feet and busy loving your kids and stenciling more walls. To this day I am so thankful for modern medicine and I LOVE that bc of c-sections I have my healthy kids. All the best.

Good luck tomorrow! I’m so excited! So…odd request….John, can you post something quickly tomorrow letting all of us YHL peeps know that Sherry and the baby are okay?
YoungHouseLove says
We’ll do our best to update Facebook/Instagram with something by the end of the day if we can, but I’m afraid to promise anything in case things get a little hairy. Thursday is the goal for a blog update, just because we won’t have our laptops out on c-section day.
-John
Lindsey says

Hi Sherry and John,
Just wanted to wish you well and let you know I’m praying for you – for a safe delivery and that God will fill you with peace and joy. I love your blog and am so grateful that it’s a part of my day. Keep up the great work and don’t worry if you miss a few days of posting after the little guy arrives (although, knowing you two, you won’t.). You guys work SO hard. You deserve a break! :)
Andrea T says
I’ve been following for a while and never left a comment. But I do wish you all the best of luck with the little man’s arrival! I’m sure Clara and Burger can’t wait to meet him!

Leisa says
Hey Team,
Good luck for tomorrow! Am super excited to ‘meet’ your little Barnacle!
Sending safe and healthy positive vibes your way.
I hope you have the chance to have a good rest and some well-earned family time.
Also, REALLY want to win this prize. I am so in love with that turquoise octopus but Target don’t ship internationally. Boo.
Could you have a little word with them about that? Y’know, now that you are super influential Target big-shots.
Thanks x
YoungHouseLove says
Oh man, we wish they would ship anywhere in the world (believe me, we begged, and they did go for it for this giveaway, which is nice). Hope someday they can do it for merch on their site too :)

Gayle Mills says
Have a great day tomorrow. I went through labor with my daughter a couple of years ago when she had her son and her husband was in Iraq. It was one of the most exciting things I have ever done. I know you will be having a caesarian and it will be equally as exciting.
Meg says
Good luck tomorrow!
