***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries****
Just like last year, we’re celebrating this blogiversary with our biggest giveaway of the year – and it’s $500 big. Yep, one lucky person will be walking away with five benjamins to splurge on whatever they want from… (drumroll please)… Z Gallerie!
Z Gallerie has always been one of our favorite spots to snag beautiful / sparkly / sophisticated items for our home (our addiction to them started long before they blew our minds by becoming sponsors). Not to mention they’ve got more white ceramic animals than Sherry can shake a stick at – which is dangerous because they’re fragile. So of course we’re thrilled (read: jealous) that one of you gets to score a chunk of change to spend there, especially since laying our eyes on their recently introduced Fall / Holiday collection.
So whether you’re looking to hoard accessories or put your winnings toward a new piece of furniture, this season they’ve go you covered from black to white…
…silver to gold (with a splash of teal)…
…and even cool to warm.
Here’s how you can score a chance to get your mitts on this prize:
- PRIZE: $500 gift certificate to Z Gallerie!
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “Z ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: …tell us what you’d spend this $500 on? Some new art? An armload of holiday decor? Feel free to be as general or specific as you want. And if you’re not sure yet, don’t worry- we don’t select winners based on these bonus q’s.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, September 29th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the USA
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck…
UPDATE: Due to the volume of entries, Z Gallerie is upping the ante and not only giving away the original $500 gift card, but is also throwing in two $100 gift cards to runners up!
Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Z Gallerie.

Z Me!!
I can think of a thousand things I could buy for my house right now. We very recently purchased our first home and it is looking pretty bare. I love looking at your blog for ideas and inspirations!
Pamela says
“Z Me” PLEASE! I love Z Gallerie and could do some damage there with $500! Congratulations on your blogiversary! Love the site!
Ashley says
Z ME! I’d love some new accessories for my new house!
Alysia says
Z ME!!!!!!! I think that I wold use the $500 towards fountain. They have this large copper standing fountain that I fell in love with. Everyday I go into Zgallery I gawk at it and wish I could come up wit the money for it!
Leslie says
I just purchased a new home and while I have it relatively fixed up, I have NO furniture in my new sunroom…seriously want a new chaise lounge and love seat…it’s calling my name to lay out there with a book on a cool fall day…I just have nothing to lay on!
Lynda says
Z ME!!!!!! I love Z Gallerie. I used to take my lunch hour just to walk around.
Amy M. says
Z Me! The huz and I just bought a house and half the rooms are still empty!
Ashley Libeg says
Z-Me!
I would love to add some new artwork to my and my husband’s new apartment! We were married in May and are in desperate need of some wall art to spruce up our temporary home. It’s unfortunate that there are no more Z-Gallerie’s local to us, so we’d have to have it shipped from CA!
Love your blog.
Heather says
Z ME!!!
I would spend the $500 on either a new piece of furniture (if I found just the right piece for my house) OR some new artwork (as we’re working on decorating those walls!).
Sonia Dubon says
Z Me! I moved out on my own this year for the first time without roomates. I am excited to put up my very own Christmas tree and would love to purchase ornaments and Christmas decor for my place. I don’t own a single Christmas item! I could also use it for some odds and ends since I am still filling out my living space with necessities. :)
Jen Wyman says
Z ME! A fountain and some artwork please!
LH says
Z ME! Love the blog. YHL is on my weekly “must read” list. I’d probably put the money toward some counter stools/chairs, considering we’re currently without any to go with our repurposed drafting table turned dining table.
Christina N says
Z ME!!!
I love Z Gallerie… I would love to get accessories for our living room.
an says
Z Me!!! We need a new floor lamp to replace my $20 Target lamp from 10 years ago, as well as some accents to update the living room.
Caroline Moore says
Z Me!
This is such a fantastic giveaway! I have been wanting to redo the master bedroom for my mom and dad, since for seven years now it hasn’t gotten a face lift like the rest of the house has, and I’m sure they would love to finally have a beautiful room.
Now if I could only get them out of the house for a week. Hmm…
Rachel A says
Z ME! My husband and I are hoping to move out of Manhattan soon (can’t wait to get out of here!), and I am looking forward to furnishing and decorating a new place. Anything from Z Gallerie would be amazing!
KK says
Z ME
I need 2 chairs to use in the livingroom and diningroom.
Katie says
Z ME!!! There are so many amazing things I would love to buy, but I think some lighting or fun home accents would be the way to go for me! Here’s hoping!
Elizabeth says
Z ME!
Everything is so great it would be tough to decide, but I need a couple of floor lamps.
Mai says
Z ME!!!
I need two rugs — one for my living room and one for my dining room. We have hardwood floors and the rooms look so bare without them. Artwork and a a new sofa would be oh so great too!
Jerry says
Z ME! Artwork for my office.
Natalie says
Z ME!
OH MY GOSH! I would probably buy some art for this one bare wall in my house… I just can’t find anything that I love to go there – but I’m sure I could at Z Gallery!
Shifra says
Z me!
I don’t know what I’d want yet, but it should be REALLY easy to spend $500 there!
Kate says
Z ME! I would love to accessorize our dining room! Thanks for this chance.
Edna says
Z ME! Some nice dinnerware for special occassions.
Amanda says
Z me!
Goodness- at the time of this commenting, 9,939 people have thrown their names into the hat, and I’m sure that’s nowhere near the final number before the contest ends. Z Gallerie should be impressed- clearly their sponsorship of your site is money well spent. :) As for me, I like everything. Not sure specifically what I’d used the $500 for, but I’ll think of something. I can always use another picture on the wall or vase/sculpture on the tabletop. :)
Happy third blogiversary, YHL!
Natalie Anne says
Z ME!
I would have to go through their entire online store to even start to narrow down what I wanted…
Lulu says
Z ME! My husband and I jsut relocated from NYC to Phoenix so he could pursue a full-time MBA program… That leaves us with a zero dollar decoration budget to make over the very…umm… cost effective (cough cough *ghetto* cough cough) apartment we’ll be stuck in for the next 2 years. My soul would just sing if we could afford some “big kid” furnishings to transform our sad space!
Sunny says
Z ME!
We’re trying to get our guest room in shape for the holidays when my in-laws visit. Some of those lovely lamps and nice bedding would really bring it together!
Daniel & Natalie says
Z ME!
We would love some new holiday decor for our house!
KateW says
Z ME! Please! We desperately need more things on our walls. We are first time home buyers and our reluctance to fill holes in the wall has carried over.
Thank you!!!
Tara S says
Z ME!!!
Wow, what a great prize. I think I would pick a piece of art for our new apartment. But there are so many great things at ZGallerie that it would be very hard to chooose.
Karen says
Z Me!
Paige says
Z ME!
If I win I’m going to buy something for the wonderful man in my life. We just got our first place together and he has made sure I’ve gotten everything I’ve needed and more, and now I want to create a space for him to relax and unwind. I’d put the money towards a new comfy couch, so he can watch reruns of Lost in peace. :)
Shanna says
Z ME!!!!!!
PLEASE!!!
We could definitely use this! We are actually looking at a bedroom set to purchase at Z Gallerie right now. Our bedroom and the nursery (due 1/4/11) are the two rooms in our renovated house that need to be completed–and hopefully before our baby arrives!
Ben S says
Z ME!
I think my wife would love a decorative mirror for our new apartment. Our anniversary is coming up!!
Cassidi says
Z ME!!!
OMG I so hope this is my lucky day. My soon to be husband and I just bought our first home (haven’t even closed) and this giveaway would be so wonderful to have!! I don’t know what we would use it for… maybe for some of the fab art since we will have so many blank walls!
Cant wait to finally get to use all of your tips I have been saving on our new place!!!
Anne says
Z-ME!!!
Oh, it would be so wonderful to win this prize!! We have recently moved into our retirement home (small townhouse overlooking the marshes and waterways of Assateague Island) and are ready to choose those final pieces that will make our home unique and ZING!! And no better place to do that from than Z Gallerie. A wonderful store for finding those pieces that make your home special. So, got my fingers crossed (toes, too!).
Tara S says
Z ME!
Wow, what a great prize. I would love to pick out a piece of art but it would definitely be a hard choice.
Matt says
Z ME!!
My wife would die if we won this. She loves their bedroom furniture and pretty much everything else in this store. Help me make her happy!
Schuyler says
Z Me!
Wow! I love it all…that $500 could go a long way!

Z ME!
I would definitely spend it on living room furniture!

I recently bought new couches and chairs for my living room, so I would spend the $500 accessorizing! new pillows, art, and maybe a ceramic animal or two! ;)
