Giveaway Gold: The Nicest Word

August 17, 2012
***Giveaway is now closed***
Congratulations to our winner, Lexy, whose favorite word is "dessert."  Can I get an amen?!

Last month, I teamed up with my talented sister to add the sweetest print there ever was to our Etsy shop. And this month, we're giving one away.

The great author, Laura Ingalls Wilder, said "Home is the nicest word there is" and we couldn't agree more. This print was designed with falling onto your bed, a home-cooked meal, snuggles on the couch and familiar smells and faces all rolled into one.

The Nitty Gritty on winning:
  • Prize:  (1) 11x14 "Home is the nicest word there is" print
  • To Enter: To enter leave a comment telling us the nicest word you know. Maybe nothing is sweeter than...chocolate.  Or beach.  Or silence. And now you know where my head is today. ;)
  • For additional bonus entries: Like Chris Loves Julia on Facebook, Pin the print from our Etsy shop and/or share this giveaway on Facebook (leave one additional comment for each, for a total of 3 bonus entries).
  • Giveaway Closes: Wednesday, August 22nd at 11pm MST
  • Number of Winners: One
  • Prize Ships:  Anywhere in the US or Canada
  • Discount:  If you can't wait until next week to see if you won, or you just want to snag something else from our shop (and we mean anything), use code SOLONGSUMMER for 15% off.
  • Fine Print:  We'll summon random.org after the giveaway closes to select our winner and announce it on Thursday as an update to this post.
Now, play nice.

  1. I love the word (if you can call it that) "tuckle." I heard it in a Dave Matthews song years ago, "when the world ends, you tuckle yourself up with me," and I loved it. It might not be found in any dictionary, but I like to think of it as cuddling, tickling, snuggling ... good stuff.

  2. My sweet husband and I are 31 short days from celebrating our one year anniversary... The sweetest words I've ever heard were "I do." :)

  3. The sweetest word is healthy - a beautiful baby daughter was born last year, and I continue to marvel in her health and beauty.

  4. Sweetest word in my book is happy! I just love being happy and think that life is too short not to be happy. Live life to the fullest and be happy! What makes me happy? My hubby, my home, my pups, reading blogs, my job, art :)....love this print!

  5. I forgot to talk to Ry yesterday but I wanted to order this print! Gotta discuss this one with the man first. BUT maybe...... (wink).......I can win it!

    The sweetest word I think is when Brinley says, "mommy." Granted, by 5pm, I am exhausted from hearing it because it is always followed by something I need to clean up, fix, make, read, or sing, but still.....her little bird voice is so adorable.

  6. Safe :) The word my brother uses to text my mom and I when he is safely home from a mission. Safe makes my heart happy <3

  7. I agree that "Home" is the nicest word I know. There's just something about making the drive back home that puts me in such a good mood.

  8. The nicest word I know right now is PEACE. As in silence, quiet, solitude, contentment. I guess that is a lot of words sorry.
