Fab Freebie: A Cultivated Kitchen

***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***

Sorry for the hit-and-miss quiz taking y’all. Apparently you guys enjoy a good quiz as much as we do! Anyways, the lucky (random) winner this week is… Kate Bateman (who was able to get a quiz result and said her “Traditional” diagnosis was almost spot on). Congrats!

I bet most of you guys spent a fair amount of time in the kitchen over the last few days, and if it had you yearning to make some changes in there, you’ve stumbled onto the right giveaway. The folks behind some of our favorite stores (West Elm, Williams-Sonoma, and Pottery Barn) have a sister site chock full of kitchen inspiration called Cultivate. In addition to photo galleries, expert advice, and a blog, they’ve also got one of our favorite ways to kill a few minutes: a Find Your Style quiz. Just pick your favorite between 10 pairs of photos and get ready for your diagnosis. And to help you put your kitchen prescription into action, they’re giving one of you a $200 gift card to use at Williams-Sonoma, Pottery Barn, or West Elm. Sweet. Update: We hear the quiz is still running very slowly/crashing. Looks like Cultivate wasn’t quite ready for all of you quiz-loving folks. So sorry about that, guys!

Cultivate Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $200 gift card to West Elm, Williams-Sonoma, or Pottery Barn courtesy of Cultivate
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CULTIVATE ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …if you were lucky enough to get through and take the quiz without it crashing, what was your result? Was it accurate? Somewhere in the middle? Did it surprise you? I was shocked that my result (Contemporary) suggested a non-white kitchen. And if you can’t get through, we’re so sorry it’s running slowly/crashing!
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 28th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: We always beg every vendor to ship internationally but some companies are not legally able to vend things beyond the US (more on that here). This giveaway is open to The United States.
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
  • ***COMMENT ISSUES? If you’re trying to enter but keep getting a “duplicate comment” warning, click here to see how to solve it!

Note: We aren’t paid or perked for hosting these giveaways, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Cultivate.

    I ended up with modern, but I was a little surprised! I tend to have more of an eclectic style!

    CULTIVATE ME! Mine was TRANSITIONAL – A harmonious blend of simple, modern lines with classic elements. Very accurate! Now I actually know my style thanks to this website! Didn’t know what to call it or what it was.

    CULTIVATE ME! My style was “traditional” which totally fits my personality (although I prefer the term “classic” because it doesn’t sound so stuffy). I LOVE LOVE LOVE your site. I stumbled upon it two months ago and have been hooked ever since. I even find myself daydreaming about articles/projects from your blog. So, a big THANK YOU from my home to yours!

    My style is Contemporary. I like that it says fresh, stylish, and simple with a strong grounding of warmth. I would have to say that’s pretty accurate.

    My style was eclectic, which wasn’t much of a surprise until I glanced at my own kitchen and wondered if anyone would guess that was my style from looking at it. I live in a rental, so it can be difficult to really personalize everything, but after taking this quiz, it is now my goal to make this little rental kitchen fit my style.

    Contemporary. I’m only slightly surprised. I like the look and feel because it’s not fussy but I still love old and vintage.

    My style was contemporary.

    Fresh, stylish, and simple, this style is softer than modern but still minimal and unfussy in parts. You love clean lines and sleek details but need a strong grounding of warmth.

    Yep, pretty much my idea of perfection. :)

    CULTIVATE ME! I’m “Transitional” which means ” Timeless, refined, and sophisticated, this style is for those who are more daring than traditional design but still love a good nod to the past.” I have to agree – that’s exactly my kitchen style! I love a bit of vintage with some more modern elements.

    It said I’m Transitional and I’d say that’s about right. I’m not totally old-fashioned but I can’t handle a completely moderned-out kitchen either. So yeah, spot on!

    Fun quiz guys!

    Cultivate Me! I couldn’t get the quiz to work, but I think my personal style is traditional with modern elements. But you could also say its eclectic…so maybe that’s why I spend so much time on design blogs trying to figure out how to make my stuff work together and look ok!
