About a month ago, we were thrilled to learn that we were the winners of a giveaway hosted by Flex Family Arts. That giveaway was a beautiful photo print of our choice by Meliane Caskey.
We selected this beautiful print and were as pleased as punch when it arrived. We placed it in an empty, perfect-sized frame that we already had laying around.
Now the only dilemma...where to hang it?!
Oh the options....
The Living Room
(PS- we have plans to create a corner shelving system as well as paint something on the wall, so the photo wouldn't be all alone)
The Stairwell
(PS- we have plans to eventually create a huge gallery wall with all sorts of eye candy with this huge real estate)
The Basement/Craft area
(PS- we may eventually paint the walls a different color)
The Bedroom
(PS- we are also thinking of creating a gallery here with various wall hangings aside from Eric's amazing firebird).
In our infinite (and indecisive) wisdom we decided the best way to solve this problem was to ask our readers to choose for us via a contest.
Soooooo, here's the deal, complete the following mandatory items to enter the contest. On Monday, November 28, 2011 we will randomly select a winner. The winner will get bragging rights, as we will hang the photo where they suggested. They will also get to win their choice of one item from Jill's etsy shop, MustHaveStaches.
Currently, you will just see just gloves, but there are quite a few additional items that will be posted there come Monday, November 28, 2011. Below is a sample of some other items she has made in the past.
Mustache bandannas, mustache ties, mustache gloves, mustache on a stick on display, mustache napkins, mustache pillows

We follow you via GFC and we think you should totally hang the photo in the bedroom to keep the firebird company. :) w.frozen.sunshine at gmail dot com
You have until midnight (MT), Monday, November 28, 2011.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
we're not entering but wanted to stop by and say thanks for the shout out and we are so glad you liked it!
ReplyDeleteI think the color of the flower and the frame best accent the white wall and the wood grain that is in the basement. If you do paint a different color, I may move it to the stairwell gallery. I follow via Facebook but I think I will subscribe so I remember to check in on you guys. If you don't have my new e-mail it's debesd@gmail.com :)
ReplyDeleteHey...I think I like it in the basement/craft area :) Looks like it fits the space well!!
ReplyDeleteI follow your blog via e-mail because I don't even know what GFG is. I think you should hang it in the basement/craft area - it's a good size for that space. My e-mail is kim.wefelmeyer@gmail.com. <3 Miss you so much!!
ReplyDeleteI follow via Google Reader (is that what GFG is?) and I vote Basement/Craft Area...I think it may be a nice little inspirational piece for future endeavors. erica29gw@gmail.com :)

I'm following you guys on Google Friend Connect :D you guys should hang the photo in the basement/craft area! I agree with a previous poster that the white walls with the black frame go awesomely together. E-mail address: syeda.anum@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI am following using GFC. I think you should hang it in the The Basement/Craft area. The colors accent the room nicely. The picture doesn't really match the curtains in the living room, there is too much negative space in the stairwell and in the bedroom it draws your eye away from the firebird (which is amazing by the way.)

ReplyDeleteI think that lovely print should go in the basement. There are never enough sunny surprises in basements, and this would be lovely.

ReplyDelete-I like the living room best. There's a nice little nook for it, and it's not overwhelmed by an expanse of empty wall.

GFC follower as jhb. I vote for the basement. It looks right as far as spatial positioning and size, but maybe once you get other galleries going on on the other walls, you might move it.

Hi! I follow you via GFC and I think you should hang it at the top of the stairwell. I also think you should get a little tiny shelf to hang under it with a few little pretties and baubles on it! mercedesyardley@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI'm following via GFC and I would probably hang it in my son's room...he's got a collection of mustache items..hehe hugsfromtrina@hotmail.com
ReplyDeletei follow via all of your FB links.
ReplyDeletei think it would be the perfect photo to start a fabulous wall of photos in the stairwell
