{Kate's Letters} Etsy Shop & A GIVEAWAY!!!

Over the past few months I have been collecting a lot of great images and ideas for Christmas on my pinterest boards. I am sure this is old news to many of you, but I recently came across this picture:


I was in love with the whole vingette, but mostly drawn to the Hymn "Oh Holy Night...." on the canvas. It brought back so many memories of the holidays with my family. I just HAD to have one! So I checked out where Holly had ordered this fantastic piece. I learned that it was a little pricey! Like $200 pricey. So I was shot down, but didn't give up.


That's where this little shop comes in:

I ran across a few of Kate's prints on Etsy and immediately knew she was the gal to talk to!!

I sent her the above picture of Holly's mantel and she seemed very excited about the opportunity to do some custom work. And for like more than half the price.. I was pumped! So low and behold this is what came in the mail just a couple of weeks ago.

24x30 Canvas Print


Umm...yeah. I am pretty much in love! I would totally start decorating my mantel for Christmas if my husband didn't already think I was going nuts! :) Kate did a fantastic job and does all of these prints by hand. Yeah...this is her own handwriting people! Wouldn't you love to have a talent like that?


SO the Fabulous News: Kate is giving away $30 to her shop to one of Eat.Sleep.Decorate's followers!!

So lets check out some of her other prints shall we?

Love the gold and red for Christmas! 


She also makes Christmas cards!


She has lyrics to songs...


Quotes from movies...


Quotes from books....


& Bible verses.


One of my faves!


So who wants to win some fabulous prints?? Maybe some Christmas Gifts?

All you have to do is go on over to Kate's Letters and then come back here and leave a comment telling us which print is your favorite! That's it!

I will be picking a winner using random.org next Friday, November 9th! (Giveaway ends Nov.8th 12pm est)

Thanks Kate for my print. I will definitely enjoy it for many many years!

  1. Checking my reader at the perfect time today! I absolutely love Kate's Letters (and totally understand why you'd want to go ahead and start decorating for Christmas after getting her beautiful artwork in the mail). I just browsed through her shop - so tough to choose one but I'd probably go with 2 Corinthians 12:9 - "but he said to me, my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness."

  8. I love her Come Thou Fount print- I love the colors, the font, the lyric itself. My absolute favorite hymn. I may have to get a custom one, though, as it was so hard to choose just one and seeing the variety gave me so many ideas.
