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!!!

    I would love this for my mom! She is the strength that holds all of us together. My family is equal parts sports fanatic and stubbornness! I hope to have a family as big and diverse as the one I was fortunate enough to grow up in.

    FAMILY ME too, Please! Love this take on a family tree! When I saw this I thought, “why didn’t I think of creating this?”, as I am so into genealogy- but then I took a closer look, and for 30-40 $ I’ll let Genuinly Yours, be genuinly mine! But I’ll wait- who knows! Maybe I will win, and if I do, I promise to show it to you when I get it! Thanks for this chance!

    Our family is tied together by blood. That is all.

    Only kidding! We share a common love for laughter. There is never a moment that that is not filled with laughter at our family gatherings. Most times it is laughing AT one another rather than WITH one another…but that is what family is for, right?

    FAMILY ME!

    My family (and by my family I mean my side of the family…we’ll leave the hubby’s out of it) are known for cooking. We all love to cook and each of us are either the good “steady eddie’s” or gourmet cooks who like to experiment. Our pre-Thanksgiving dinner is usually always some sort of wild game night, and I don’t mean board games. Picture rabbit, wild turkey, venison, turtle, goose, quail and anything else the hunters (my uncles) got that season.

    I would say that we tend to stick together. With two teen boys and a college guy, plus me and my husband, somehow, we all seem to gravitate to each other to hang out. The kids all have friends that they enjoy, but they hang out with them at our house. It’s nice to enjoy each other.

    FAMILY ME!!! My husband and I both grew up as farm kids and now that we are married (have been for 2 years) we bring a lot of the values and activities we learned on the farm to our home, hard work, honesty and determination. we recently started a “hobby farm” of our own, small for now with just a few Chickens, our 2 dogs (adult rotwiellers) and lots of fruits and veggies in our garden that we take to the local farmers market and can/preserve for ourselves.
