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!

    Those who have married into my family all say the same thing:

    “You all have an opinion and you aren’t afraid to share it!”

    FAMILY ME! Music (wide! variety), books (kids, sci-fi, romance, non-fiction, you name it), and movies (rom-com, indie, blockbuster, etc) — our family is into entertainment; it certainly inspires some great conversations and differing insights.

    My family is a mix of teens and toddlers. Yep you read that correctly. Ages ranges from 18-3 (four kids in total) what ties us together is our roots. Both hubby and I are not form the country we currently live in, and we are tied together by our openness to new things while staying rooted.

    Family Me Please! Ever since my son was born, all I’ve heard is “He looks just like his Daddy!” A woman at church made me very happy when she told me, “He’s got Daddy’s looks, but all of his mother’s personality”. Of course she didn’t specify whether or not this was a good thing, but I’m taking it as one!

    FAMILY ME.
    We are all world travelers. We´re germans, that moved to the states in 1999. Now my brother has moved back to Germany and I am currently living in Chile with my fianceé. My sister is finishing up highschool and still lives with my parents.
    If I were to win… I would get a portrait of my family to remember them by, since I live so far away from them and see them very rarely.

    FAMILY ME! Sadly, my family members all share the same short fuse — we’re quick to anger. I like to say it’s the same quality that makes us passionate about things we love, too. We’re not boring, that’s for sure. ;)

    My children have received the trait of funniness and sarcasm from me, their momma! LOL My parents are also funny, my mom is pretty silly…so maybe we all got it from her?

    Thanks again, this totally rocks! Good luck to all too!
