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! Please please please Book Me!!!

    I get so much inspiration from beautiful design books, and the ones I have are part of the decor in my living room. They are displayed in a stack with my Grandfather’s tweed driving cap sitting right on top. He was a hardware store man and he taught me so many things about tools and DIY-ing.

    Built-in bookcases in our living room for the good looking books, and bedside table for the good reads. Not sure where I’d put all of these… maybe on the coffee table!

    Coffee table rotation and a few built-ins in our 1942 home. But with those pretty books, I wouldn’t be above staging them in our house. You know open them up and lay them face down so that it looks like someone was reading them. :)

    There is a shelf in my house filled to capacity with what is evidently my hall of fame, and my own canon. The other spots taken by books, are every available surface upon which they do not fall.

    Long live the printed page!

I think it’s good to keep your favorites close at hand – and reading before bed is one of my favorite ways to unwind at the end of the day!

    My books hold a dearly special place in my living room on an industrial shelve meant to be set at the kitchen of some restaurant painted with neon colors and a hint of metal in the bottom, a DIY I enjoyed greatly. My top picks pile up next to my side of the bed on a palette I attached to the wall and the books seem to be floating.
