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.

    Can’t take the quiz, but I’d wager I have a traditional/transitional style. My husband and I are closing on our first house soon; hopefully that will show in our kitchen as well!

    waiting for the site to “uncrash”, but my husband knows that i have been describing my kitchen style as: paint the cabinets white, add knobs, change backsplash, add pendant lights, etc, etc, etc.

    Cultivate me. I do wish that you could have said, “Neither” several times. I wonder what that would have done to the results, which claimed I’m transitional.

    Cultivate me……contemporary. Which surprised me a little but apparently I didnt really know what contemporary really comprises. Once I read the description I agree it suits me completely. Then I got to thinking about my house and the description of “Fresh, stylish, and simple, softer than modern but still minimal and unfussy in parts. Clean lines and sleek details but need a strong grounding of warmth” describes exactly how my house looks. No frou frou, no fluff, but lots of warm tones and very straight lines.

    Please! We are in the final stages of planning a minor kitchen remodel. All appliances are bought and waiting for us to choose counter tops and oh, the layout! Even if I don’t win this, I love that you steered me to ANOTHER website of pictures of kitchens. To say I’m slightly obsessed right now is an understatement.

    ps: did you ever consider black or dark countertops for your kitchen? I can’t seem to get my husband on board for a white on white kitchen. He loves dark shiny objects.:)
