Win Free Stuff! The Tiny Art Show at Greenville, NC’s Emerge Gallery opened up this past Thursday with a preview sale, and I can’t possibly do the show justice with words – each of the minuscule masterpieces are deserving of their own recognition – from jewelry to notecards, paintings to ceramics, and many other trinkets and knick knacks smaller than a shoebox and a variety of pieces that would even fit in your pocket.
So what better way to showcase some of the art from the exhibition than to share some of it with you all? That’s right – we have three items from the show that we will be giving away over the next few weeks to you all – so keep an eye out for upcoming posts!
For our first, we have a tiny painting by artist Rebecca Ives that is about 2.5″ x 3.5″ – check it out!
If you think you’d like this gorgeous piece to spiff up your desk, office, or anywhere else that might be in need of a small dose of fine art – listen up!
To win, all you need to do is respond to this post with the following information:
- Your Name
- Your Email Address
- What’s something small that brightens your day?
We’ll take entries until Saturday, February 13, so get yours in today! Don’t forget, we’ll be doing several more giveaways from the Tiny Art Show, so if you can’t get in between now and February 21st to check it out, you can still win some art here at Live Make Create.
Best of luck!

Featured Artists In a world where the “twittersphere” has quickly grown to be one of the simplest communication tools of the net, it’s also emerged as a great marketing device – and a great place to get free stuff! So it comes as no surprise when a friend of mine “retweeted” a message by @feltmeupdesigns to win a felt robin I was instantly enticed – with only one tweet-per-person-per-hour, Melanie’s giveaway had me over at her site in minutes, and the things I found!
Besides the giveaway robin (shown above), FeltMeUp has an assortment of take-home “tweets” – fuzzy felted birds, some designed from real birds and others more whimsical, all of them staring at you in such a loveable way that you can’t help but want to perch them nearby for a small bit of cheer.
If you’d like to see more of her birds, check out Melanie’s Blog – FeltMeUp Designs. Be sure to check out her Twitter Competition while you’re there!
Are you a crafter or artist looking to sell your wares on Etsy? As an added bonus, check out Feltmeup’s guide to conquering Etsy – it’s a good read for those looking to boost your sales in the online marketplace.
Oh, and one last bit – if you’re also on twitter, be sure to follow our new account – @LiveMakeCreate, where we’ll give you updates as the site updates, and the occasional bonus tidbit as well! :)
