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.

    My siblings and I all have our Mom’s dark brown eyes. We’ve all been asked at one time or another, “You’re Connie’s son/daughter aren’t you?” These people have no idea who we are but they know who we belong to by our eyes! Craziness!

    My family is tied together based on our beliefs. We were all raised in church and created a very strong bond based on our beliefs and the time we have all spent at church events together.

    FAMILY ME! Both sides of my family have close ties to Europe. My Dad’s parents immigrated from Germany in the 50s and my Mom’s family came from Poland before her mother was born. It’s very cool to have such proximity to other cultures.

    Everyone immediately knows my sisters and I are related, we’ve even been mistaken for twins (even though we’re 4 years apart). I guess there is a slight resemblance.

    When it comes to my husband and me, I think we are known for being nerdy. Like in an affectionate way, but still. My math-teacher husband always gets questions about science and the way mechanical things work, and I’m always recommending books or demystifying grammar rules. Not a bad gig!

    I guess you could say we are known as an athletic family. I’m not sure, it’s hard to know how others see you.
