A Valentine’s Day Gift Worth Framing: Frame the Date Giveaway 2012

by Brett & Kate McKay on January 31, 2012 · 964 comments

The Frame the Date Valentine’s Day giveaway is back. We’ve run this giveaway the last couple of years, and it always gets a good response, not simply from those hoping to win, but in giving guys an idea for what to give their gal on Valentine’s Day. It can be incredibly hard for men to think of a romantic, classy, meaningful, creative, non-cliched gift for the women in their lives. And yet Frame the Date manages to be all of those things. Guys in previous years who have gone ahead and gotten a Frame the Date for their significant others have emailed me later to tell me how much their gals appreciated the gift.

What Is Frame the Date?

With Frame the Date you first pick a date such as the date of your anniversary, her birthday, the birthday of your child, etc. Then you pick from one of several handmade frame designs. Next, you choose from a diverse selection of quality, original photographs of numbers to represent your special date. These numbers were shot around the world, and the styles range from rustic to urban to traditional.

You can choose to frame just the numbers, like this:

Or include a picture as well, like this:

The final product is a handsome piece of art, designed by you, ready to be hung in your home and serve as a daily reminder of you and your sweetheart’s special day. Nice, right?

Frame the Date is giving away any one of their products to a lucky AoM reader. Want to win? Read on.

How to Enter the Frame the Date Contest

Leave a comment telling us what date you’d like to get framed. That’s it. We’ll randomly draw one comment to be the winner.

Everyone who enters will be sent a discount code for 10% off any of Frame the Date’s products.

Giveaway ends Feb. 6, 2012 at 7:00 pm CST.

Winner of the giveaway will be announced on the AoM Trunk.

Update: Contest has ended. Check the Trunk soon for the winner.

That’s my 8 year old son’s 5 year completion of treatment for Neuroblastoma anniversary, Making it to that day, without any recurrence means his statistical odds of having a recurrance of Neuroblastoma is equal to his statistical chance of dying of something else.
