GIVEAWAY: two brunettes calendar
I’m sure you’ve seen all the beautiful calendar round-ups on blogs over the past weeks. It’s hard to choose a favorite, but the Two Brunettes calendar is definitely one of my top picks for 2010. Even if you’ve already chosen yours for next year, the Two Brunettes calendar would make an excellent Christmas gift. Check out how Carolynn wrapped it around that wine bottle—genius!
Carolynn hand-drew the illustrations on the border, and had them screenprinted in royal blue ink on canvas. They come with a pretty seafoam-green ribbon for easy hanging.
So without further ado, here’s how this calendar can be yours! Leave a comment with your name (don’t forget to include your email address in the form) by midnight EST on Monday, October 26th. I’ll announce the winner by Tuesday afternoon. One entry per person, except there will be one extra credit per person for tweets (just leave another comment with a link to your tweet).
A big thanks to Carolynn for sharing her calendar with a lucky Mint reader! …And go!
