[CONTEST] Ketsin Skull Giveaway

This contest has ended. Thanks to everyone who entered by leaving a comment. Our winner will be notified via email. Stay tuned for more upcoming giveaways!

IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN!!!!  You know how much we love being able to hook up our awesome readers with some kick ass skull art, and now the time has arrived to do it again!

Admit it, you know you have a skull collection.  That collection of craniums ranging in all different sizes, colors, and styles that remind you of different times in your life.  Like that time you were reading Skull-A-Day and discovered the coolest skullptures, and they were giving one away for FREE!  Ketsin Design Crafts wants to make that happen for you today.  Our friend Omar Vitela has been kind enough to offer up one of these bad ass skulls to one of our lucky readers.  Made from polyester resin and enamel paints and sure to take a prized place in your skull collection.  Omar has even been nice enough to offer a 25-50% discount in their store to a couple of select readers.  Be sure to read below for how to enter and how to receive a chance for the bonus discount.  


"Inspired by Pre-Hispanic art and popular traditions, we take one of the most representative icons of Mexican art, the skull, transforming it into a decorative object with a contemporary aesthetic based mainly in minimalist and body art."

"Ketsin is a project of Craft Design made in Mexico. We chose the skull as a means to develop our creativity for its rich symbolism that transcends eras and borders. All items are made by request and we give our customers the ability to customize it choosing any color combination."



PRIZE INFO: One randomly selected winner will receive their choice of one(1) skull of their choosing.  The skulls measure 19cm x 13.5cm (approx. 7 1/2" x 5 1/4").  You can see more Tattoo and Mono choices in their gallery here.  

HOW TO ENTER(this is important): Let's make it a popularity contest.  Leave a comment stating your choice if you were to win, Tattoo or Mono.  I'd go with the Tattoo style personally, but I know some of you have a little more subdued personalities, so just tell me what you think.  Don't worry, you can still change your mind if you are the randomly chosen winner.  Your vote is by no means a final choice.   

CONTACT INFO: If you win, we need to contact you. With your comment you must include your email address.  Entries are only valid with this information!  You can break it up to avoid spammers(i.e. skulladayfan AT skulladay dot com).


WHERE TO ENTER: All entries must be made on this blog post, on Skull-A-Day.com. You CANNOT enter this contest by commenting on Facebook, Twitter, or Google+.


CONTEST CLOSES: 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time Friday, March 7th.


NUMBER OF WINNERS: One (1)

PRIZE SHIPS: Due to shipping costs this contest is only open to skull lovers in Mexico and the contiguous United States.  Sorry to those overseas, Canada, Alaska, and Hawaii.  Your time is coming.


IF YOU DON'T WIN: You can still visit the Ketsin store to be a guaranteed winner by purchasing a skull of your own.  Here's the bonus- the first two(2) readers who email Omar directly here will receive the discounts.  The first response will get 50% off and the second will get 25% off.  Thanks to Omar and Ketsin Design Crafts for the awesome giveaway and substantial discounts!

  12. Tattoo style would be awesome to show off!! But both are great, mono is more of a traditional mexican skull like one you'd see for day of the dead. I have some skulls on my coffee table that are like those. Nothin' like waking up looking at some hand painted skulls while you sip your coffee! - Spyke_525@yahoo.com
