Fab Freebies: Family Ties

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Although only 3 will win free prints, everyone can score free shipping on Genuinely Yours orders before June 30th with code YHL2011FS. And according to random.org, our trio of winners are… Alicia (whose family all shares their mom’s dark eyes), Sondra (who feels like she gave birth to three exact clones of her husband) and Erica (whose first two kids have her eyes, but the third got daddy’s). Congrats ladies!

This giveaway combines some of our favorite things: silhouettes, colorful art, and family (if there were a ceramic animal or a map involved, our heads might explode). So needless to say, this prize from Etsy seller Genuinely Yours gets us going. She designs graphic prints that are customized to feature your family, your choice of color, and even your preferred language (good thing, since this prize goes anywhere in the world). So this week THREE of you can pick either her modern spin on the family tree or her silhouette-y take on the family portrait (she does couples too).

Genuinely Yours

  • PRIZE: A family tree, family silhouette or couples silhouette in either 8″ x 10″ or 11″ x 14″ from Genuinely Yours
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FAMILY ME! and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us what trait or quality ties your family together. Are you all known for being particularly athletic? Bookish? Funny? Friendly? Or maybe you all share a common physical trait?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 25th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere on the entire planet!
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Genuinely Yours.

    Family me please!

    We’re tied together with love! We adore each other and our little ones. That’s all we need to have in common… but there’s plenty of other stuff. Love is just that really important top reason.

    I think our common trait is that everyone is easy going. With a big family, no one person can take themselves too seriously!

    FAMILY ME!

    There are no common traits in my family, except maybe determination/dedication. What binds us together, I think, is how different we all are, and how we all come from such different walks of life, so that every family gathering is interesting, fun, talk-filled and wonderful! I think we’re just good at being really loving and accepting of each other.

    What trait or quality ties your family together? – We are known as the couple with the opposite personalities.
    He is cool calm and collected while I’m emotional, hyper and impulsive. Which strangely makes us so cohesive.
    But I think it will be our soon to be baby this October that will really make us a family. I think that arrival will officially “FAMILY ME” or family “us”. :)

    “FAMILY ME! ”

    My Family consists of myself, my husband and our chihuahua/dachsund mix(we think), Dungy (as in ex Colts coach Tony Dungy). (Who very much resembles Burger!)
    We all LOVE to go to the beach together and enjoy the sun, sand and surf! Dungy’s favorite walk is on the beach, to the pier, at which he “goes craaaazzzzy” running around in circles with his tail tucked under for maximum speed!

    We would love a family silouette to display our family!

      I bet Dungy looks a lot like my Baxter- he greatly resembles the Burg and we think he is chihuahua/dauchsund! Gotta love the shelter babies.

    We (especially the women) LOVE trading furniture around to each other. That way, we all get something that feels new to us, but without furniture going to the landfill. Yay for freecycling!
