Happy Monday y’all! We hope you guys had a fun-filled weekend. We spent the weekend out of town, at Jamin’s 20th high school reunion. {I know, right?!} I’m going to go ahead and claim that he has a few years on me, but since we’re both from the same origins {woot woot, Birmingham!} it was nice to mix in a little nostalgia and see old friends. Ahhh the formative years. I don’t know about y’all, but I still feel like I should still be 22. Sometimes, high school feels like a lifetime ago, and then sometimes it feels like yesterday. There’s something about the 20th reunion that I find much more intriguing than the ten year stuff, and it was so much fun. But seriously… I know. Don’t blink. Before we know it, our kids will be going to their 20th. I find it all weirdly distressing. ;} So in honor of kicking back a little, we thought we should have a little giveaway today. With a little eye candy, as well. First up: Our book, Handmade Walls. 22 inspiring ideas to bring your walls to life. Complete with tips and tricks on how to create them, with detailed skill levels and outlines in an easy to use format. So even if you’ve never built a thing a day in your life, we make beginning easy. Or if you are on your fiftieth handmade project and are looking to infuse your home with more you. It’s a fun read for anyone looking to inspire their home with more one of a kind, originality. And our three art series books, with amazing art from incredible artists… It’s literally an insta-art collection for your walls. For Traditional, Contemporary and Eclectic Homes. But we love all three… because we’re biased like that. Would you like to win? We would love for you to enter! Simply follow the directions below, and may the luckiest duck win! {Giveaway ends 5.8.14 – winner announced here, Friday! Sorry – giveaway open to US only.} Have an inspired day, y’all!

Dude, 20 year reunion? That’s terrifying. You beat me by a couple years, but still, where did all that time go? I definitely ALWAYS feel like I’m just pretending to be a grown-up and someday the grown-up police are going to whip out a whistle in my face and blow it shrilly to alert everyone in the vicinity to my ruse. Seriously, how did this happen? I’m just not qualified to make real life decisions. Whose idea was this adulthood thing, anyway? 😉
ashley @ the handmade home says
HA! Let’s clarify. MY twenty year is in FOUR years. So that means Jamin is OLD. Not me. Kiddingnotkidding. Sorrynotsorry. ;} He was the senior in college dating the freshman. It is crazy, though. I do look forward to my own twenty years. I feel like people have had more time to settle in to who they are, and that makes it more interesting. ;}
Anna @ A Good Home says
Cradle robber! Ha! My twenty year is 2 years after yours and it still makes me feel hopelessly old. Can you maybe start a series reminding us all that being in our 30s is way more fun that the awkward bonanza of high school? If someone had told me when I was 16 that someday I’d be married with 2 amazing kids it would have saved me a lot of ugly failed-crush related tears 😉
Elizabeth says
which book contains that great up-close car picture? love them all! thanks~
ashley @ the handmade home says
Hey Elizabeth! That’s our traditional book. It’s actually one of our original paintings in print form, and there’s more to put with it in a series, if you like. ;} I hope that helps!

Just tried to send you an email via your “contact” tab, but it’s not working. Tried it on my iPad and also the computer… Just wanted to let you know that something may be wrong with your tab! thx!
jamin says
Faith thank you for letting us know, we were having some issues with a couple plug in forms over the last few weeks do to some a .bot attacks on the site. It should all be fixed now. Thanks for reading!

I’d love the chance to win. As an apartment dweller, I’m always stuck trying to figure out how to make our apartment feel like home. I want it to be reflective of my love of family, my scrap booking hobby but I always always get stuck! Your blog has really helped me step out of doing what everyone else does! Thank you!
Angela R says
Do I get bonus points if I already own all of them? I want to win them for my mom. She is totally jealous of my cool prints on the walls now.
