Giveaway: Owl Vase

Remember this post I did last year on Hoot owl vases? And, remember how much we all loved them and wanted them. Well, if you are reading this post then you have one last chance to win this vase. This could be your only chance to win this giveaway because these vases are so hard to get and they go like hot cakes. I was lucky that Nood sent me this purple vase for this giveaway. I have held this little guy in my hands and trust me, it's gorgeous! Its perfectly shaped beak makes it suitable to be used as a pitcher, or simply set it on your windowsill and let the whimsical light filtered from its honeycomb pattern fill your room. 

It's not available anywhere online, so don't let this opportunity pass you by. To enter this giveaway -

1. Print our Free 2012 Owl Lover calendar.

2. Take its picture and submit your entry on Facebook by clicking here.

The entry with the most votes will be the winner of this vase. The winner will be announced sometime on January 13th. This giveaway is open to all international readers.

Our winner is Peter! Thank you all for playing.

Happy New Year + Wallpaper

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your holiday break and made wonderful memories in 2011 to cherish for life. I thought it would be fun to start off the new year with this adorable desktop wallpaper designed by Katerina Bobkova. The wallpaper can be downloaded for free with or without the calendar in several sizes from here (scroll down to the bottom). While you are there take a look at other wallpapers, I love "Carry Warmth Carry Each Other" too.
