Bomobob art giveaway!

Giveaway is now closed!

Well hello there! I'm so happy you love my tile project as much as I do! I'm thrilled that I inspire you -- I've never done any tiling in my life, and I did it in a weekend on a wing and a prayer. I couldn't believe how well it turned out. YOU can do it too! For reals!

To continue the month o' giveaways, my friend and advertiser Bob from Photos by Bomobob has offered one of you another one of his beautiful prints!
Just in case you don't remember, take a look at some of his gorgeous work:
How fun for a playroom? Kid's room? Office? The colors are just beautiful:
Sigh. I love this:
His photography showcases how the simplest subjects are the most beautiful:
Seriously. Amazing.
I love the whimsy of this carousel:
Oh, how fantastic would this look in a cottagey kitchen or bedroom?
Bob is offering one print, (size 8x8 or 8x10, depending on the original dimensions) or one of his 4x6 print sets of your choice! To win one of these beautiful prints, leave a comment here, then go to Bomobob's Etsy site here and pick out the print you want to win. Come back here and let me know which one you would love to have.

That's it! Thanks Bob for this great giveaway! This one ends at 8 a.m. this Monday (the 31st).

A few announcements -- I'm hosting a Before and After bloggy party on Monday, September 7th! It can be anything -- a painted room, a craft project, an organized space, changing out accessories, whatever! All you MUST have is a before picture! :) I hope you can join me!

I did a guest post for Kennesha over at Me and My House this week! Go check out my Goodwill Survival Guide post when you get a chance.

Finally, don't forget to head over to houzz.com to comment on my feature there and get in on a chance to win the large Ballard Designs pear! The entries end at 5 p.m. EST time on Sunday the 30th. (I just saw that even my Stepmom and Dad commented on there! Sniff!)

Oh yeah, and have a GREAT weekend!! :)

Bethanie said...

I'm sooooooo jealous of his skills! I just purchased a new camera and I want to be able to take photos like that NOW! :)

Bethanie said...

Ok...I want them ALL! But....I especially love P is for Peony because I love peonies...and my room is decorated with highlights of pink, so this would be perfect! His photo just enhances their romantic, ruffly nature. This particular photo reminds me of this painting of a woman in a pink dress. <333

Misti said...

I love his photos. I wish I could take cool pictures, and I blame it on the fact that I have a crappy camera, but really, I think I just am not very good at it...

Chambers Boys said...

Such a hard choice! I could find a place for all of his photos...I really Sunburst...just beautiful!

Aja said...

Awesome photography! I want the Four from the Earth floral prints!! Yay!

I can imagine using the "I Love You" all framed up pretty in an arrangement over our bed..especially since I hope to attack that area this winter...I also love "apparition". Very hard to pick out fave's ya know-they're all awesome! :)

Wow, how hard would it be to pick JUST ONE? I think i have fallen for "Evening Copper" because i have a vinyl lettering saying that i am wanting to put in my new dining room that says, "There is beauty in everything, but not everyone sees it" that would compliment this art and the rust red paint in the room SO PERFECTLY! I want it!

NorCalMrs said...

Mike, Adrienne and Lincoln said...

WOW! I love these. I really like the "Sunburst" picture.

Wendy said...

Ack, how to choose?! They are all so gorgeous. It would have to be between the Special Birdy 4-Pack - 2 8x8 and 2 8x10 OR For the Birds - Set of 8 Prints. Or maybe even Tweet - 8x10 Original Fine Art Photo. I cant decide!

Amber said...

They are just wonderful. Stunning!

Heidi said...

beautiful! I'd love to feature some of his work in our home!

Heidi said...

it was TOO hard to pick just one - I could only narrow it down to 3 - if I do win (and I hope I DO!) I'd have to re-evaluate then. My faves were:
Lighter than air, Delicate, and Sea and Sky

any of those would be so FAB with the new look I'm going for in our beach -house inspired living room!

The Real Cottles said...

Beautiful Colors! I love it!
