Young House Love » Giveaways » Fab Freebie: A Splash Of Color

| By John Petersik | July 23, 2012 | 6,243 Comments

Fab Freebie: A Splash Of Color

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

After quite a color-filled few days here on YHL, random.org has selected our winner as… Daffodil (whose kitchen gets almost zero natural light, so she painted it a cheerful bright yellow). Congrats! And I think we have an idea of what color sink you might be choosing…

Jonathan Adler has been a big inspiration to us lately, especially as we learn to embrace more color in this house than our first one. And as excited as we were by his new color-filled collaboration with Kohler, we were even MORE excited when Kohler agreed to give one of you a new kitchen sink and faucet to the tune of nearly $3,000 in value. So what’ll it be? Do you want the poppy yellow apron sink for your kitchen? A cool aqua double-sink for your basement wet bar? Or maybe a deep single sink in navy? The choice is all yours.

Kohler Jonathan Adler YHL Giveaway

And since a sink isn’t much good without a faucet, Kohler’s gonna let you choose from three of their favorite styles in any available finish: the Purist, the Cruette, or the Simplice. Whatever choice you make, something tells me that doing dishes is going to be a lot cheerier around someone’s house very soon…

Kohler Jonathan Adler YHL Giveaway Faucets

  • PRIZE: A new kitchen sink from the Kohler Colors Featuring Jonathan Adler collection, plus a new faucet. A potential prize value of nearly $3,000!
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “ADLER ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … how are you currently bringing color into your kitchen? Did you pick a bold paint color for the walls? Do you like a vase of fresh flowers on the counter? Or do you often find that the most colorful thing in your kitchen is your latest culinary creation?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, July 25th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • 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…

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 Kohler.

    I’m still figuring out how to bring color into my kitchen with paint (we just moved in a month ago!), but all of my small appliances (brought from the last place) are red…red coffee maker, mixer, microwave. I’ve also got red dishtowels, pot holders and a red apron to round things out.

    We’re hoping to redo the kitchen in the next few years so right now it has horrible pink/brown marble tile counters with peach ceramic tile floors. Definitely the brightest things in it are the dining creations I make! :)

    I generally bring color in to the kitchen little by little, and then expand upon that item until it permeates. Then, next color!

    “ADLER ME!” I have been painting furniture like crazy. I recently started selling my wares at flea markets and it has given me the confidence to go a bit bolder. Now, if I could just find a way to keep a few more pieces, it might be even more fun. Dang small square footage! A sink like that would sooo make the room!

    Our kitchen cabinets are all white, with white appliances, and the counters and floors are a modeled forest green…not done by us. Since we don’t have the budget to re-do, I try to bring in lighter shades of blues and greens that look well with the dark green, but brighten it up.
