Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating the second anniversary of the launch of Briarbook Lane by entering our logo coloring contest! We loved all of the entries we received, and had a very difficult time selecting a winner for the Judges' Choice prize.

Take a look at the wonderful entries we received below. You can also see our gallery of completed logo coloring pages here. If you missed the chance to enter the contest, but would like to use the coloring page anyway (it's a lovely image!), you can download it here.

Keep reading to find out who we selected for the Judges' Choice prize pack, and who won the random drawing for our second prize pack!

Mary and Elizabeth created Briarbook Lane as a place to share their creativity and inspire both each other and like minded souls. It has also been a haven throughout all that has happened these past few years. 
​
​In early 2020, we decided we wanted to collaborate more. We are both writers and already supported and critiqued each others' work. So we decided to create a website and blog that we could work on together. We knew we wanted to focus on books, writing, and fairytales. And start our own book club to read and discuss fairytale retellings. We brainstormed names, such as fairytale sisters, drunk-on-writing, briar sisters, storybook sisters. But sites were either already taken or too similar to existing sites. Elizabeth was the one that suggested more of a street location vibe. Our online home. And in April 2020 we officially launched Briarbook Lane.

As teens, we had discussed living next door to each other someday, with houses that had libraries, and a shared garden between our two homes. Mary's initial website sketch below was to capture that idea. Of course, neither of us have the art skill or web design skill to pull off that exact vision, but we are very happy with how our site has evolved.
