*THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED.*
Congrats to Anatale whose one-of-a-kind decor includes a Victorian stoneware ginger beer bottle dug up from a backyard in England! How’s that for uniqueness?
How was your weekend everyone? Mine was productive! While Handy Hubby and the boys were camping, I took any free second Mabrey would give me to finish unpacking and clean up around here. The Underdog is feeling a little more like home with our things out of boxes. I’m looking forward to organizing and decorating now that the moving mess is gone. That means I’m open for window shopping!
A new-to-me site that I was recently introduced to is NOVICA. Have you heard of it? NOVICA is one of the leading fair trade artisan websites. They work with National Geographic to give talented artisans around the world a place to express their artistic talents and provide access to the world market. They offer thousands of top fair trade gifts, accessories, jewelry and home decor items.
I love the idea of bringing unique, hand crafted items into my home. It’s definitely a way to break free from the cookie cutter look. And I think you’d be surprised by how well less mainstream decor mixes with more popular, say IKEA or Target, products. In fact, I’ve selected one of the items above for a product review {to come!} in my own home.
Are you looking to add some one-of-a-kind pieces to your home? Great! NOVICA is graciously sponsoring this week’s giveaway. See details below.
PRIZE: one $75 e-gift certificate to NOVICA {Please consider shipping charges when shopping NOVICA. Since items are shipped from all over the world, shipping can be a little pricey but there are many items with special $2.99 shipping.}
RULES: You must be at least 18 years old and have a U.S. shipping address {no P.O. boxes please} to enter. One entry per email address.
HOW TO ENTER: Leave a comment on this post proclaiming “ONE OF A KIND!”
DEADLINE: Enter before Thursday, June 28th @ 9:00 p.m. EST. One random winner will be chosen via random.org and announced Friday, June 29th.
WHILE YOU’RE AT IT: Share an item you have in your home that you’re pretty sure no one else has. Is it a piece of furniture that you DIY’d? Or a custom sewn curtain? Maybe it’s a special rock that you found on a walk. I’ll go first. HH and I lived in Illinois when we were first married. {We’ve actually lived together in IL longer than in OH!} We had {and still have} very good friends out there who had artwork commissioned for us as a moving away gift. It’s a painting of our very first home. Not only is the piece one-of-a-kind, it means the world to us.
