Fab Freebie: Book Worms Rejoice

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

So many book-hungry people out there! This giveaway hit its 10,000 cap within 24 hours, so we’re already back with a winner. The lucky worm is… Melissa (who keeps her favorite books in a bedside cabinet, a living room end table, and on a special display shelf in the family room. She believes “all good book nerds have them in all parts of the house!”). Congrats Melissa!

Our book release is officially here! Woo hoo! And we’re celebrating by giving away books this week. But not just our book. Lots o’ books. In fact, some of them will even come signed by some pretty awesome people. Woot! We’ve been gobbling up so many design, decor, and home books lately that we thought it’d be fun to share some of our recent faves from our library. So in addition to a signed copy of our new book, you’ll also be getting copies of the following (marked with an asterisk when signed!):

  • The Things That Matter by Nate Berkus
  • The Handbuilt Home by Ana White*
  • Design*Sponge at Home by Grace Bonney
  • Home by Novogratz by Robert & Cortney Novogratz*
  • Style Me Pretty Weddings by Abby Larson* (which releases next month)
  • Happier at Home by Gretchen Rubin*

BookGiveawaySMP

  • PRIZE: Copies of all of the books shown above, including signatures from us, Gretchen Rubin, Abby Larson, the Novogratzes, and Ana White!
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “BOOK ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … what special place in your home do you keep your favorite books? Do they get a prime spot on your coffee table? Or do you have a large collection of faves that fill a bookcase somewhere? Maybe your top pick at the moment just lives cozily on your night table?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Nov 7th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The United States (although we try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible – more on that here)
  • 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.

    BOOK ME! I love having all my books on shelves together. I just like the look of them in large groups. Sometimes special books (they usually have dinosaurs)go on the coffee table.

    BOOK ME!!! All of my favorite books stand proud on my dark wood book case in my family room. My coffee table books usually end up being books the kids are currently reading, as well as our photo books that the kids love flipping through. My night stand consists of books I wish I had time to finish reading (way too many that have been started and not finished!).

    BOOK ME.
    I keep my favorite books everywhere as books are an accessory in each room of my home, including the bathroom (gasp) and laundry room (hey, good idea!). I tend to carry the most recent special books around with me in my purse or bag and tote them to work, soccer practice, meetings, etc. just to have them with me. I also have a shelf in the den for all my special books. I hoard them, treasure them and refer to them constantly.

    I have a large bookcase from Ikea (bought about 8 yrs. ago), it’s open shelving with some closed cabinets and takes up a good-sized wall in our living room. And it’s still not enough room for all our books!

    Books tend to be EVERYWHERE in our house. There are bookshelves in our living room filled with books, cooking magazines, and one shelf is dedicated to LonelyPlanet travel books of the places we have gone. Our books that are currently being read are on our nightstands next to our bed stacked high on either side. There are cookbooks tucked in tightly in old wine boxes hung on our kitchen wall. And, our daughter’s bookshelves are filled with board books, childhood favorites, and about 7 copies of The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

    I love my Kindle, but our favorites with pretty pictures and visuals galore get prime real estate in the side table next to our couch for easy reference, entertainment and eye candy. So excited for your book to arrive tomorrow via Amazon! It will have a great home next to the couch for all who enter to view. =)

    We love books here at our house, so they inevitably are in every room – some are organized, but many, are laying in stacks as we read… on the nightstands, kids’ dressers & beds, on the piano, on bookshelves, on “plant ledges” that have become book ledgs… really, they are everywhere & I would LOVE to read through this amazing collection you’re giving away!! So stinkin’ rad! :)
