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.

    I have books everywhere…

    Nightstand- for currently being read books
    Bedroom bookshelf- for just completed books
    Family room bookshelf- for all time fav’s, and family yearbooks
    Hallway bookshelf- for “pretty spine” books
    Craft room- for craft books

    I’m a book-a-holic, and adding these beautiful, helpful, fun books to our new home would be a dream!!! (And would mark some things off my Christmas wish list, so the hubs would be excited too!)

    “BOOK ME!” I have books spread through out the house. Books have so much character,they make the best risers for lamps & bases for decorative items and you know they even do a great job at filling shelves. My decorating books stay close at hand in a stack on the coffee table.Congrats on your book, I can’t wait to read it.

    My books are organized by color around the apartment. My husband asks, “Where is that book?” and I respond, “What color is it?”. However home design books have a special place on the coffee table.

    My favorite books live all over the house. I usually have several on my nightstand, a couple on the couch near where I typically sit, bookcases scattered throughout my house, random piles of books near most chairs, etc. Looking at blogs, pinterest, reading books, and occasionally crafting something inspired by what I see are my favorite things!
