“Be Real” Canvas Giveaway

Remember my favorite friend with a paintbrush? Kristi from Barn Owl Primitives?  She’s shared her subway art printables here over the last year.  She has also been generous in the giveaway department. 

Guess what?  Her art has been picked up by some very big stores. I just love when good things happen to deserving people.  This is the perfect example of someone working hard (painting, painting, painting and more painting)…that translated into something awesome.  Go Kristi go!  Read more about Kristi in her new “About” page on Etsy. You will love her. Promise.

BOP licensed several designs and Target picked one up! Kristi’s celebrating by giving one away to one of you! Her “Be Real” canvas can be found at Target’s across the US! How exciting is that??

To enter this giveaway, leave one comment letting me know your favorite word.
That’s it! No hoops to jump through.  Just a celebration in honor of Kristi!
I’ll pick a winner this Thursday, June 14th.

The winner was chosen & emailed.  Congrats Lana! Thanks for entering this giveaway everyone.

 This post is not affiliated or sponsored by Target.  I was not compensated in any way for this post. I just love Kristi and all Barn Owl Primitives products.  I am so happy for her success!

Hi- I'm Mique (as in Mickey). I started 30days as an idea file a few years ago. After three years and hundreds of ideas, I now realize that I'll never check them all off my list. When I'm not creating, I love spending time with family and friends and long drives, especially if they end at the beach.

    My favorite word is humble. I saw this piece of art in the latest thirty-one catalog (I am a consultant). I have been googling everywhere, trying to find it, because I want to completely redecorate my nine-year old daughter’s bedroom, with this being the focus. I absolutely love it, and every word is perfect for a nine-year old!

  123. kimber says:

    Wow, why is it that I find it so hard to claim any one of those words??
    Where is needy? uncertain? dark & twisty?

    I’ll go with humble, but only because humility is my word for the year and I am on a quest to exemplify that characteristic.
    I would love to win that print to remind myself that I am fearfully and wonderfully made in His image, and those qualities that HE possesses, he has given to me. I need to boldly claim his promises!
