a big ka-boom of fantabulous fun :: a pure + lovely giveaway!

WOW.

The number of entries for this thing was astounding. I know you’re totally skipping this to see who the heck won, but we did want to take a moment to say you guys really keep us forever grateful. We wouldn’t exist without sweet supporters like you … we just wanted to say thank you. And a big fat cyber round of applause to The Nester, who took the time and went to the trouble to do this. But this is SO NOT the academies, so, before I start to sound like Katie from Horton Hears a Who: “In my world, everyone is a pony, and they all eat rainbows, and poop butterflies” The winner…

We’ll shoot you an email, Laura, but in the meantime, stay tuned for more fun giveaways in the upcoming months from Pure + Lovely. We love doing stuff like this. Hope everyone has a glorious weekend! You’re ALL winners in our eyes. Okay. I’ll stop talking now. 

Hey guys. So I’m super excited about this one…and I’ll make it short and sweet. 

One fun reader is totally going to win a 100 dollar gift certificate to use in our store. 

 

I couldn’t really decide WHAT to giveaway, so I thought I would let the readers pick anything they want!

You can make your 100 dollars stretch futher by choosing a few small things, or put it towards one large item. It’s your choice. It’s shopping galore for our winner! This is perfect timing for some spot-on Christmas shopping! Put it toward a custom item, that you wish for me to create, if you want!

-Now for a few boring must-have specifications- Please note that shipping is included in this, so for our Canadian and International readers, you are also more than welcome to join! We only ask, and this applies to everyone, that once your 100 dollars run out, you please fund the rest if shipping is a little bit more. The only thing this DOES NOT apply towards is our furniture (sowwies) and my custom oil paintings (sowwies again…I really hope you understand) We also ask that the winner agree to use all of their certificate at once. Gift certificate expires in 30 days.

    How exciting! I am always looking for things to decorate our bare apartment walls and your shop would more than hit the spot!

  11. AvatarMegan Sanders says

    I cant choose I cant choose! Lol. I think I would want one of the frames, but I am not sure which one, too much good stuff to chose from! Thanks for doing a giveaway!

  14. Avataramy mcteague says

    I am following you on FB, twitter, and reading your great blog!
    If I won, I would get some custom letters for sure! Such great art!

  27. AvatarKathleen says

    I love your style, so anything would be great. I'd probably have to go for a letter of our last name…but I'd have fun looking at everything!

  28. AvatarKathleen says

    Just joined your facebook group- with my husband's account (we share one). He was VERY excited about this, let me tell you… (note the sarcasm) =)

  37. AvatarCarolyn Wiley Kochek says

    Well, you emailed me about my daughters antique vanity, so you KNOW what I'm spending it on, LOL!

    Already with you on Facebook, and I am now with you on Twitter too!

    Put a post up on my FB blog page "Tales From the Trenches of Parenting" about the giveaway, which also goes directly to my twitter feed. Call it a double-whammy and the rocks!!

    Ooh, that made me crave a Sangria for some reason……..

    Now let me see about getting that blog post up this week for ya!

  57. Avatarmarguerite says

    Love the Moroccan tile frame, but also love the Swirl x6 frame as well. And how fun would it be to get some of your fun prints and frame them for the home office/craft room in the new home that we are building. Wonderful blog and wonderful giveaway!
    [email protected]

  61. AvatarKim says

  69. AvatarMichelle says

    Definitely go for your frames! I desparatly need frames. I don't know just yet which one I'd choose but thank you so much for the chance to win!

  70. AvatarJennifer Creviston says

    and in all honesty… I have NO idea which things or thing I would pick from your store because I would certainly like 1 of everything….

    I love the moroccan tile frame, damask frame, floral frames, or the sign… oh…my.

  84. AvatarPaula Ogden says

    I love the cottage chic block letter (with an "o" of course). So hard to find "O's" Or the striped individual letters spelling out our last name. So glad for contests like this as it introduces me to so many new sites!

  88. AvatarDenise N says

    I love everything – who can choose right away! Thanks for the chance to win something from one of my favorite artists!

  93. AvatarHolly says

    Well.. this is tough… I love all the rugby striped frames… and I love the striped nest blocks! So it would be either one of those and the Howdy!

  96. AvatarKay says

    I'd definitely get Moroccan Tile Frame (3) for myself (forget the Christmas presents!) and hang it over my couch with DELIGHT!

  116. AvatarLindsey W. says

    I love it all! it'd be a hard choice.
    I think my favorites are the cupcake and mixing bowl prints. LOVELY. I'd base my whole kitchen around them. 🙂

    thanks!
    llwoolard [at] gmail [dot] com

  120. Avatarsam says

    I love the kitchen prints, the scale, mixing bowls, rolling pin, etc. My son is a huge auction goer and is stocking up on all sorts of retro kitchenware. These would be perfect for him.

  126. AvatarNicole says

    I would like lots of things but my one must have is the Roughing it. trois print. My sons grandfather had owned a camper business for 35 years and passes away before he was born so this would be the perfect way to remember him and it's very cute.

  133. Avatarelizabeth smith says

    I would LOVE LOVE LOVE one of your large monogrammed letters 🙂 Or several small ones… or my last name spelled like you did "Nest"
    I love your blog 🙂 Have watched it for a while!!

  148. AvatarCarolineCollie says

    What amazing stuff you have in your etsy store! I will find out next week if I'm having a boy or girl and would probably choose some gender appropo stuff to shove in my suitcase and take back to Africa with me! I LOVE the Audrey Hepburn would approve dress!

  159. AvatarKathy says

    I love the custom made wooden signs, would love to have them with my daughters names on them!
    kathy k.

  161. AvatarDonna says

    I would love the gift certificate to give to my daughter-in-law. It's always difficult to chose something for her.

  164. AvatarCarolineCollie says

    I tweeted to my humble Twitter following about the $100 of adorableness being given away right here! Hope you see a massive influx of traffic from all 180 of my fans! 🙂

  168. AvatarKatie Sanford says

    You have so many great options… but the large monogrammed letters are my favorite… and those striped picture frames… and the "NEST" pieces….

  170. AvatarCaroline Phillips says

    I'd love to win anything you make, but the large custom block letter and quatrafoil double frame would look great in my bedroom!!

  189. AvatarKristen says

    I would like the quatrefoil swirl frame for myself and the dress form illustrations for my daughter!

  199. AvatarJessica Cook says

    Oh goodness, if I won this, I would have a hard time narrowing it down! 🙂 I would surely have fun trying!

  202. AvatarAngela S. says

    Hard to decide! I am in need of picture frames – so would probably choose one or more of those!

  204. AvatarCassie says

    Wow, this isn't easy. I think I'd pick 2 of the lamb prints, both prints with cupcakes (yum!), one of the bunny ones – and a few other $10 prints. They would look so great in our nursery!!

  231. Avatarholly says

    I love it all! I'd have a hard time choosing between the nest blocks, a rugby frame or some of the vintage car prints for my son's room. Hopefully I'll have a hard time choosing!

  242. AvatarAmy says

    I'm searching hi and low for a demilune table for my hallway – I might weight to see if you get something like that soon. Or, I might just break down and buy some framed magnet boards for the office and boys room!

  244. AvatarCharley says

    Oh my gosh! There's so much to choose from! I would adore practically any of the frames or wall hangings. What a wonderful giveaway! And I just joined the facebook group as well!

  274. AvatarJess says

    It's all beautiful! If I won, I'd need a few days to decide what to get. Thanks for the chance to win!

    Wow, you have so many wonderful frames. I love the custom wood lettered sign and the 5 x 7 striped frame in green and pink.

  437. AvatarSarah says

  440. AvatarMarlis says

    I think I'd choose the girly-whirly frame with one of your prints (maybe two of these), perhaps the circular monogram, or just get the moroccan tile frame. How can one choose??? Thanks so much for hosting such a great giveaway!

  445. Avatarrani says

    What is there not to want with the bounty! But I must choose…so to start I would love the Moraccan Tile Frame-I have the perfect place for it-my wall is just begging for that!

  450. AvatarWhitney says

    O man what a tough choice!! I really love the frames but I would totally get one of the monogramed items! I've been looking for an ubber cute monogram and your's are definitely ubber cute!

  457. AvatarRobin says

    There are so many wonderful things, I'm not yet sure what I would choose. It would be a wonderful time to win with Christmas getting so near :).

  485. AvatarPat N Fl says

    I love it all so am not sure what I would pick but I know it would be great whatever i ended up with if I won.

  490. AvatarJanelle says

  494. AvatarBecca Holt says

  498. Avatarbetsy says

    LOVE LOVE LOVE everything of yours 🙂
    i am thinking of a wooden sign that involves a splash of orange, a splash of blue and a tiger!!!!???
    🙂

  502. AvatarStacey Napior says

    Yeah, so when you asked what we would choose from your store with the gift certificate, I started hyperventilating a little and could only picture my husband and I sitting down at the computer to decide together. We're buying our first home and are in the process of learning what our style together looks like. =] However, I'm kinda partial to almost every frame you have on your site, as well as all of the other woodwork you guys have designed (signs, etc.). Thanks for the opportunity to enter! Love your blog!

  504. Avatarleah says

    I LOVE your frames and I just happen to need three new ones right now.
    Fingers crossed….
    Thanks for the chance!

  507. Avatarharriet says

    I actually love it ALL!!!

    I would especially liove the Anthony and Cleopatra table or the Dallas table!

    Amazing stuff!!

  509. AvatarElysa Mac says

    I would LOVE to win some of your decorative art. We had a housefire a few months ago and lost most of our frames and decorative items. I would use the win to purchase some frames for the photos of my seven beautiful children and maybe some of the letter artwork.

  523. AvatarKristi says

    I would love some new photo frames. Redoing my living room and would like to make a photo gallery. Fun stuff!

  526. Avataralice says

    I'd love to pick out a series of prints to put in my kids' room. I've been looking for some cute neutral prints for the room our boy and girl are going to share… I love the hot air balloon prints, as well as the vintage pull toy and tricycle. Such great colors!

  528. AvatarBetsy C says

    What to buy?! What to buy?! Love the Giant Funky Frame and series of the Rugby Stripe Frames would be incredible as well…hmmm. Decisions! LOVE this giveaway!

  532. AvatarSarah Ann says

    I Love Love LOVE your striped individual letters. SO cute. Though I have no idea what word (words?) I would get. Guess that 30 days would come in handy. 🙂
    Joining your facebook group as we speak!

  541. AvatarSarah Ann says

    Ok! I just joined the FB group! And accidentally so did my husband…guess I need to take that off before he notices! Whoops! Darn this sharing the computer business…

  548. AvatarShane H. says

    I'm loving the Striped Individual Letters. Just so happens my name is four letters! Would look great on my mantle. Thanks for the chance to win. 🙂

  556. AvatarRachael says

    Nearly impossible to choose just one of your designs–they are all gorgeous! But I especially love the Josephine mirror in your vintage section. Thanks for the chance to win!

  558. AvatarAshley from Wyoming says

    How cute is your store?! The striped individual letters are darling—I see them making a happy home atop my kitchen cabinets, spelling out something fun like "yum" or "delicious"—but I love the block letters, too! I'd make a monogram to celebrate my new marriage & accompanying new last name 🙂

  561. AvatarKathy says

    I adore every single print. I couldn't possibly choose a favorite right now. That would take hours of deliberation! (I AM a Libra, after all.)

  579. AvatarMegan says

    I don't know what I would choose…too many things I like.. but I would be happy with anything that I was able to get from winning!!

  583. AvatarCrystal says

    I'd love to have the vintage fan, writers block, rotary phone and spindle chair prints to hang in my office…too cute!

  586. Avatarjamie delight says

    I'd get the Moroccan Tile Frame in Taupe since it would fit my triplets nicely 🙂

    jamiedelight @gmail.com

  590. AvatarJennifer Sheppard says

    Oops! I said that I would spend it on a furniture piece in my guest room (I just saw the sawwies exception!)… so, I would get a frame!…. and drive up there to buy a piece of furniture!! 🙂

  595. AvatarVicki Schubert says

    I'd love the swirl damask frame and then I'd let a couple of mommies to be that I know pick out a print for their new nurseries…or I'd put it all toward the hand painted wood slice – those are spectacular!

  606. AvatarThe Chatty Housewife says

    Oh dear, I can't seem to delete my first comment. I was looking at the wrong store! I LOVE your work, especially "Hot air balloon ride 2" and it would be perfect for decorating the nursery I am planning! Sorry for commenting twice.

  623. AvatarMarin D says

    Oooh, I love the Block Letters. I have a cute idea for my wall and that would be awesome! I also really love so many of the frames.

  626. AvatarDayna says

    I love your frames. If I won I'd actually have a hard time trying to figure out what I wanted and I'd probably go over $100 😉

  630. AvatarJessica says

    So many wonderful choices! I think I would definitely have to choose a customized sign for my baby who will be born in a couple weeks!

  653. AvatarAshley says

    Too many great things to choose from! I love your style and would be ecstatic to add some creative flair to my walls. Thanks!

  659. AvatarAndrea says

    I would get a few of the Circular Monogram Plaques. I'd keep one myself and use the others for presents 🙂 Wouldn't that be an awesome gift!!!!???!!!

  677. AvatarAlissa says

    I'd get the custom block letter or damask frame. I like both, and I'm in need of some art in my newly redecorated room! 🙂

  680. AvatarAutumn says

    I have been checking out your wonderful creations @ pure and lovely for a couple months now. LOVE the frames and would probably choose one or two of those for our foyer…they will fit right in to our cozy home!

  696. AvatarBethany Peterson says

    would LOVE something custom- either with letters or the wooden name sign…love your stuff! So cute!
