Owl Lover 2011 Free Calendar + Anthropologie Giveaway

{Note: This week's new posts will appear below this one.}
Owl Lover 2011 Calendar

Good Morning, friends! I am so excited to finally reveal the secret "Owl Lover 2011 Calendar" in today's post. This calendar is a collaborative project of 30 of our favorite artists and My Owl Barn. For each month, you can choose from 30 beautiful owl-themed artworks! Yes, you read that right. You can pick and choose the images you love the most from our gallery and create your own calendar. All this is for free. If you are not big on customization, you can simply download the pre-made one; but I bet you are one of those owl-make-my-own kind :)

Owl Lover 2011 Calendar

This calendar will make a perfect Christmas gift for any one who loves art or is an owl fan (or both.) The best part is you can gift it to all your friends and no two calendars will be same. Print it on a card stock paper, gift a ribbon around it and complete it with a personalized note.


I hope you are as excited as I am! To thank you for your support I am giving away a printed calendar with my favorite art work on it, and this Anthropologie purse.


1. To enter, you must be a follower of My Owl Barn (click here to follow My Owl Barn)

Make sure you leave a comment here letting me know that you are a follower and have liked and shared.

Winner will be announced sometime on October 21st!

Update: Kim is our lucky winner! Congratulations! I'll be emailing you shortly.

  83. I never add, follow, like or share to win something unless I really do enjoy what I'm supporting. What can I say? My ethical core is strong.

    I was more than happy to follow, like and share My Owl Barn, and it made me realize how happy it makes me to check it every day and see all the pretties.

    Not that that little owl coin purse and the calendar wouldn't be nice too ;-), but I enjoyed doing it!

    ReplyDelete
  84. @ Carlie It was just a temporary issue and has been resolved. You should be able to download the calendar without any problem.

  168. Thanks sooo much ! what a great calendar ! Love the Anthropologie purse. My friend just introduced me to your blog yesterday and I believe it is the most awesome thing in the universe ! I am seriously owl addicted. It's all my mother's fault. She was owl addicted during my childhood but she grew out of it. I kept buying her owl gifts, unaware that her passion had faded. I came to the slow realization that the owls were really for me !
    I have followed all of your instructions.
