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.

    The site was crashed so I couldn’t be diagnosed with a ‘style’ which is a shame! It’s hard though because I love the clean lines and pops of color of a more contemporary style, while still loving dark wood and ornate cabinetry. We are in the process of buying our first house, so this would be pretty AWESOME!

    My style is “Transitional | Timeless, tailored, and simple.” That’s probably accurate. Though, I tend to be more on the modern end of that scale. Thanks for the referral to the site. Lots of good resources on there.

    tried the quiz over and over, but i imagine the sheer volume of your readers kept shutting their servers down. =/ i doubt the results would be much of a surprise, though.

    CULTIVATE ME! Transitional–which is accurate, but new for me. As I get older, I find myself moving away from the contemporary/modern aesthetic and looking for some of the warmth of a blend of modern and traditional–with some pops of color for good measure.

    Thanks!

    my style said transitional and i don’t think of myself that way at all…. i definitely like some modern touches, mixed wih rustic, but i don’t think of that as transitional and think i lean more towards eclectic.

    The site was moving slowly, so I didn’t want to risk crashing it. But I really love contemporary/modernist kitchens. I think I prefer that because they look so clean. Except that my current kitchen Is like that, and its a disaster. User malfunction, no doubt. :-)

    Thanks guys!

    Cultivate me! I’m Transitional. I got a new kitchen with my house, but its cherry cabinets, granite like you took out of your kitchen and tan travertine tile. I’d love some white cabinets and some Carrera marble backsplash. So maybe one day I will transition.

    My result was transitional, and I actually think I have YHL to thank- I was always very traditional with my designs, but you guys have opened me up to appreciate new things, such as clean lines, and more modern color choices. By combining those with other elements I love, like nods to the past and rustic elements, you helped me find my own style- thank you! :)

    And this is perfect timing- we start our kitchen reno next week!
