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.

    A giant pile on the night stand.

    I preordered your book. For some reason, it came in a GIANT box (thought it came with Burger!). Although the box was fine, the book was damaged inside :(! It was wet, and torn. The Amazon representative asked me to smell it- HAHA. Gross.

    Guess I have to wait a couple days for replacement.

    BOOK ME! I like to display my favorite home decor books on the living room coffee table. For smaller 5×8″ books, I have a floating shelf on my office wall and they lie flat with a shell or another small decor accent on top. :) What a great line-up of books you’re giving away!

    BOOK ME! We have a library full of books, but those belong mostly to my husband. I leave mine by the bed, on the coffee table, or wherever I happen to be. Would love some “coffee table” books that I can leave out to read over and over again!

    BOOK ME! I have a stack of to-read books on my nightstand, but the favorites among already read ones live behind glass in our built-ins in the office. The bookcases are half glass doors, half hidden storage, so the books displayed behind the glass are the ones we want to see/show all the time.

    My books are all over the house. Bookshelves, closets, boxes put away for our 1 year-old. I’ve been married 3 years and we still haven’t decided where they can call home. He got rid of most of his, but I can’t part with mine, so he got me a Kindle for Christmas. :)
