Novica Giveaway

Well, it is the season of giving so why not follow one giveaway with another. This time from National Geographic partner, Novica.com

Novica has a unique and worthwhile mission with their online store - to provide artisans across the world with an opportunity to share their craft, and typically hand-made products - while they provide their families an opportunity to live better, happier, healthier lives. Novica.com gives these artists a free platform to sell their wares globally, how worthwhile. 

Novica artisans make everything from jewelry, to home decor, to paintings, but everything is beautifully unique. This week, Novica.com is giving one lucky Color Outside the Lines reader with a $40 gift certificate code to use on their site for anything! Anything at all! 

Perhaps you're interested in accessories for the home: 



You could get both of these boxes, perfect for a coffee table or foyer table, each just $19.99. Painted by artist Mishri Lal, these boxes are just two from many beautiful pieces Mishri sells through Novica.com


Or you could grab these little frog candle holders, how cute are they? And only $29.99 for the pair! Made from Bronze, the artist, Sukaenah, was encouraged by her brother-in-law to start working with bronze, and she has created some gorgeous pieces for sale with Novica.com

Perhaps clothes are your thing? 


So cute! $28.99, made in Thailand by Jariya Kakaew, I love the asymmetry of this! What lovely lady wouldn't look good in this? Pair with some black linen pants and jade green jewels and you're styling like Miss Mary McDonald! 


Or maybe you're just trying to round out your gift giving list this year for that special person on your list that has everything! Well, look no further than the 30,000 gifts on Novica.com ... I'm sure there's something for any entertainer on your list: 


any cook: 


any gamer: 

any musician:  



or the budding journalist: 


And no matter what you choose, whether for you or a loved one, it'll come beautifully gift wrapped, only the way that Novica can. You know, that WOW sorta gift wrap - beautifully done with applied handmade elements, carefully crafted ribbons, and beautiful brass plates!  

So, how do you win? Well go to Novica.com and look around a bit. Come back here and tell me what you'd buy with your $40 gift code and that's it! I'll pick a winner on Friday! 

GOOD LUCK!
