Fab Freebie: Maine Attractions

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

It’s a shame we can’t take any major road trips right now (thanks to our wee one) since this week’s giveaway has us itching to head north to Kennebunkport, Maine. That’s because Spaces Kennebunkport– the shop behind today’s prize- embodies just the type of comfortable seaside home accents that Sherry and I love. Never mind that we can barely spell the name… we still want to eat up everything in their store. Have no fear if you also can’t make it out to K-town. Spaces Kennebunkport has an awesome online shop and one of you is gonna win a $150 gift certificate to spend there. Score.

Kenne Four Grid

And not that we’re in the business of telling people how to spend their prize money, but here are some things we would totally snag for ourselves:

Kenne Our Picks

Wanna take home some of this beachy bliss? Here’s how to enter this week’s Fab Freebie (oh, and stay tuned for a discount code this Thursday):

  • PRIZE: $150 toward anything in Spaces Kennebunkport’s shop
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “MAINE ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … since our giveaway sponsors reside in a fairly uniquely-named town, we’d love to know of any unique / weird / funny city names that you live in, have visited, or have noticed on a map (i.e. Love, VA; Bummerville, CA; Sweet Lips, TN)
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 2nd at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the USA
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    I always thought Paris, Tx was a lovely little town, but not exactly the fashion centre that Paris, France is….

    North East, PA (which is actually in northwest PA) is near Erie, where I went to college. The school mascot in this vineyard region is the Grape Pickers. No joke.

    North East, MD (which is in northeast MD) is the town where I taught for a few years.

    Weirdest town name that I love is Sandwich, Mass. My brother and I used to always laugh about that when we were little and on family vacations to the Cape.

    Hey youngsters, not entering the competition as I live in Australia (although their stuff looks awesome) but though I stop lurking and let you know that roadtripping with wee ones is easy. You take a little longer to get places- as you have to stop and feed, but getting them used to the car now saves much hassle and whining later. My girls are 8 & 10 and are fabulous. We have driven all over Oz with them and now we are teaching our son (4 1/2 months). He has done 3 so far as all our family lives at least 3 hours away…
    Enjoy Clara. :)

      Hey Kate,

      We DEFINITELY plan to start road tripping with Clara soon! We’re just waiting for her to get a wee bit bigger and stronger before hitting the road for the long haul. But we actually have a huge four day road trip planned before she turns three months old (and a 5 hour trip planned in the next few weeks) so we’re hoping she gets some good car time and grows up to be a fabulous little traveler.

      xo,
      s

    I grew up in the teeny town of Section, Alabama. Once, someone misunderstood when I told them my hometown, and exclaimed, “SEXUAL!! There’s nothing SEXUAL in Alabama!”
