Hip, on the House: The Pied Paper

Posted by
This giveaway is now closed!  The winner is...




Lucky number 30!  Robin, you are the winner!

You know I love a good set of stationery and a good pun, and The Pied Paper delivers both.  This sweet Etsy shop has an awesome selection of beautiful notecards and delightfully lined envelopes.  Mily, The Pied Paper's owner, has generously offered a set of 5 notecards to a lucky Hardly Housewives winner.

The winner can choose any set they like, but here are the ones I'd go with:

These awesome thank you notecards with peacock feather lined envelopes...


... or maybe these bumblebee notecards (4 weeks to go until my backyard honeybees arrive!)...


I think these anchor notecards are so sweet and summery.  Of course I'm also loving the vintage maps used as envelope liners...


There are a bunch of other designs, colors, and custom monogram cards.  I think these would make an awesome gift for a friend (or yourself) and I'm very excited to be working with Mily at The Pied Paper.

There are a few ways to win your choice of a 5 notecard set...


1) First, go look through The Pied Paper and leave a comment below with your favorite item... 

2) If you want another chance to win, be sure to "like" Hardly Housewives on Facebook here and leave another comment letting us know that you did (or if you already have)

3) Join the Hardly Housewives follower community - publicly follow Hardly Housewives via Google Friend Connect

4)... and for a last chance, add The Pied Paper to your "Favorites" on Etsy

This giveaway ends NEXT FRIDAY morning!  Come back to see if you've won.  Thanks, Mily for the cards!

Good luck, dear readers, and stay hip!
