Fab Freebie: Color Combo
***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
This week’s giveaway sponsor practically needs no introduction. It’s Valspar Paint (which Meredith successfully figured out last week from our anagram clue). They’re giving away FIVE gallons of their high quality, Ultra Premium interior paint (one each to FIVE of our lucky readers). So we foresee a handful of paint projects in some of your futures… and hopefully some before & after pictures as well.
But Valspar isn’t just offering up paint this week, they’ve also created a great online resource for couples faced with the challenge of combining their styles. The “Love, Our Style” site includes some painting tips via a Painting 101 section, a photo contest where you can win a paint makeover, and – our favorite part – a quiz to help figure out how to merge your aesthetic with your partner’s.
And although Sherry and I feel like we’ve figured out our combined style pretty well, we jumped at the chance to see how we fared with the quiz. After 10 simple (and sometimes thought-provoking) multiple choice questions, the quiz revealed that our style is “Relaxed” which came with this description: “You’re in perfect harmony when it comes to your eye for the simple yet functional. When it comes to your home decor, eco-conscious style- like natural textures, tones and sustainable furnishings- can play a big part. Take your love of the outdoors and find inspiration in nature, with warm neutrals.” Pretty dead on, eh? Not to mention that the paint colors they suggested are pretty much right up our alley too.
So here’s the scoop on how you can score some free Valspar paint this week:
- PRIZE: One gallon of Valspar Ultra Premium interior paint in the color/finish of your choice
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “COLOR ME” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: Head over to take the “Love, Our Style” quiz and share your results (and how accurate you think it is)
- CONTEST CLOSES: Wednesday, September 16th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Five
- PRIZE SHIPS: United States only
- THE USUAL: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

I took the test and was relaxed. I believe it! We are moving next week and would be thrilled with the paint.

I took the test for both of us and was totally off… then we took the test together and got relaxed modern which I think is spot on!

COLOR ME. Quiz said we’re CLASSIC EXOTIC. We’re not down with leopard print, though. :-)
COLOR ME! We got Relaxed too! Totally fits our personality and design sense. :)
COLOR ME!
We got ‘modern country’ but I don’t think it’s too accurate… although I kinda cheated by putting what I thought my husband would answer instead of asking him :) We moved in our first home two months ago and could use a gallon of paint!!
Color me!! I’m relaxed!
Color me crazy but I seriously love Valspar paint!we have used the primer and kitchen and bath enamel to paint our cabinets a crisp white. We have also used the flat paint in homespun linen to paint our living room and bedroom. Not only is it beautiful it only takes one coat! I would love to win a free gallon and keep painting!
COLOR ME!!!!!
We are relaxed
COLOR ME Relaxed Country- sounds about right :)
COLOR ME!!!
