Look over there! In the right sidebar. We’ve launched a hotline + voicemail system where you fine readers can call in and speak your mind. Because sadly, the internet doesn’t allow for inflection. Every Friday, we’ll post the week’s messages in the player and create + post a new topic for the coming week for you folks to respond to. There are a handful of messages already in the player, so you can get a taste of the things to come. Real human voices! Yessss.

To get this party started, we’re hosting our biggest giveaway yet! With fifteen total winners. We’ve teamed up with some of our favorite artists who’ve donated their goods to kick this thing off!
Here’s the deal: Call us at 1-866-556-9432 and be sure to leave your first name and last initial. Comment on this post with the same info (so we can find you when you win!) Entries are open until next Sunday night (7/5) at 11:59pm. We’ll choose our 15 winners randomly and announce them the following Monday (7/6). This week’s topic? Let’s keep it simple: Which one of the 15 prizes do you want to get your hands on?
Onto the goodies…
On the left: Atlanta designer Mark Weaver donated the Lynx print we blogged about a few weeks ago. A personal favorite. On the right: The ever popular “Things I Like” design from Richard Perez is a poster for the first time ever. 18×24, 4-color screenprint. You can snag it now before it’s available for purchase!
$10 towards a t-shirt, a print, a tote bag, a journal (or anything else) from the Barehanded Press store!
Awesome jewelry pack from Plastique in LA. Three rings + two necklaces. An $80 value!!
Jardin de Ninos (Stefan Joch + Andreas Putz) have donated four (!) of these oversized, screenprinted posters, each in a different colorway. One per winner.
A GrandArray pillow set from our friend Hannah Stouffer. Bottom line, someone’s gonna have a hot couch.
Readers choice: Sycamore Street Press is giving away one of these two new posters, not yet available in their store!
Flytrap Studios has donated this great set of four cotton table napkins. A different silk screened design on each!
These 2 good lookin’, motivational posters (minus the kitsch, plus good taste) from Right Brain Terrain are going to brighten someone’s workspace. One per winner.
A (pretty) $5 gift certificate for the item of your choosing from the wonderful Two Brunettes shop.
Local hero/photographer Tim Lytvinenko is giving away this print set. Ten 4×6 photographs!
Good luck, everyone! And a big thanks to all of the artists that kindly donated their goods!

Having just started a very small business the RIGHT BRAIN TERRAIN “Teamwork” poster would rule the sewing room at Raleigh Denim!

Oh my sweet Lord, how I love the flytrap designs. Elegant, graceful, somehow just looking at those images opens up my heart. I wear them, cover my walls with them, and long to see them all over my city. Seriously, take advantage of those limited editions, they’re gorgeous.
July 3rd, 2009 at 12:31 pm
That Mark Weaver poster would look great above my stuffed lynx.
July 3rd, 2009 at 3:41 pm

Right Brain Terrain’s Teamwork poster would certainly add some visual inspiration to the studio I share with my husband. Thanks!
July 4th, 2009 at 11:28 am
Cotton napkins?! I love cotton napkins! SO much better than paper… NO TRASH!! I thought you had to get Martha Stuart brand, but apparently not… SWEET! Thanks Flytrap Studios!!
July 5th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
