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.

    Every single person in my family is argumentative. It makes for some interesting, entertaining, and frustrating get-togethers.

    We all like doing stuff ourselves. From DIY projects to just sheer stubbornness – we are all pretty independent. The baby sure comes by it honestly. :)

    FAMILY ME!
    My mom has a large family (she’s 9th of 10). We all gathered around my grandmother…getting together for potlucks for all holidays. Since Grandma passed away, my mom has taken over as the glue holding us all together. I hope this is a trait that I possess and that I can pass it on to my daughter.

    Family Me! My family are big outdoorsy folk- it has been passed down to my sister and I from my mom and dad. My dad passed along his ecological/green habits and my mom has passed along her love of hiking and being outside!

    Family ME!!! There’s just two of us in our family…and our dog…and what ties us together is the fact that we are best friends. Truly. There’s no one in the world I would rather be with. And it works so, so well that way.

    Family Me!
    The last 7 generations of my family have all lived on one big piece of land in SW Ohio. Everyone, except one of my aunts (6th generation, moved to TX) has lived there permenantly.
    The Family Tree would be especially symbolic for us since our roots, both physically and genetically (family) are shared.

    FAMILY ME! (If I shout it like that, does it help my chances?)

    There are definite traits in my family… I am dry, reserved, and generous like my father, but my sister takes these with the more feminine influence of my mother.

    Family Me! The trait that tied my family together used to be our military lives but alas, that has changed in recent months. After an amicable divorce, my kids and I are trying to find other traits that tie us together. Right now, the trait that ties us together is our ability to laugh and love every minute with one another.
