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! My family is full of foodies – we are always all in the kitchen at any family get together. including my grandparent’s house for Thanksgiving – 28 people crammed in the kitchen, all trying to sneak food!

    … we know how to have FUN! With 3 little girls, ages 5, 3, and 1, we do not fit the assumption of playing dolls or dressup all the time. We wrestle, watch movies, climb trees, skin knees, play in the yard, etc. It is AMAZING to see my 3 girls play together, even the yongest! LOVE IT!

    I don’t know that there’s anything that really “ties” us together (it’s just me and my husband w/a little one on the way)… but one thing we keep as an inside joke is our nicknames for each other. We each have a million for each other and then a few for our animals. And they all start with “F” which is just weird!! Haha! So coming up with a baby name that can easily be given an “F” nickname has been a challenge… we’ll see what happens! :)

    FAMILY ME! I’d say we share three qualities: bookishness, a love of mysteries, and the desire to make one another do spit takes at supper every night.

    I think I’d have to say we’re all pretty bossy. Not the best quality, but thankfully, we also share a great sense of humor so we can laugh at ourselves when we get called out for being bossypants’.

    “FAMILY ME!” … I think of my family as being a group of smart introverts. … We’re people who like to hang out together, all sitting around silently reading. That’s our version of quality family time. Seriously, who does that!? But I love my family.

    That’s a good question! I would say that our family is very friendly….we can strike up a convo with anyone and we are always having non-family people over for special events and holidays. So we’re pretty accepting of strangers I guess.
