Making a Grand Entrance and a Giveaway

Today Ramsign, a Danish bespoke maker of beautiful hand crafted porcelain house numbers have sponsored a great give away at Desire Empire.  My first giveaway, infact.  Dear reader, I would never promote anything that I didn't really like.  I have just spent the last thirty minutes clicking around the photo gallery at the Ramsign site and these signs are truly lovely.

I particularly like the Lighthouse range



The Metropolitan range is another favourite, as I think it reminds me a little bit of France.



The functional design created in 1927 by Danish architect Knud V. Engelhardt, Denmark's first industrial designer, is reflected in the range created in his honour.



 The signs can be specifically personalised for your home (up to five digits).  I think these lovely signs would grace and enhance any home's entrance, from a city apartment to a country cottage.  The products Ramsign offer, are hand stencilled, featuring original design and thick glossy enamel.



So what is on offer today as a give away, is a house number.  All you have to do, to enter the giveaway is either or both of the following.  Each comment will mean another chance to win!!!!
  1. Become a follower of Desire Empire, if you are not already and leave me a comment to this effect.
  2. Tweet, Facebook or Blog, about this giveaway, creating a link back to Desire Empire and leave a comment letting me know that you have done so.  You can grab my button on the side bar to create the link, if you like.
This competition is open internationally as Ramsign will ship anywhere in the world and will close on Thursday 18 August 2011, at 3pm Eastern Standard time. So Good Luck and here's to creating a beautiful entrance to your home!!!
