Fab Freebie: Finishing Touches

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

We thought we’d finish off this year with a prize all about finishing off a major remodeling project (or even just a quick furniture upgrade) the right way. For instance, although we’re spending major time on tile and paint when it comes to our bathroom project – we haven’t forgotten about the little things like fixtures and molding. And when we completed our kitchen in 2008, we went to at least four stores just to find the perfect knobs and pulls. So, with that in mind, we bring you a fun little year-ending giveaway from Builder Resources (i.e. CabinetKnob.com).

While their URL certainly suggests a specialty in knobs and pulls (from tradition to modern and everything in between)…

CabinetKnob Knobs2

… they’re also a great resource for other finishing touches like mirrors, closet accessories, molding, vanities, sinks and even kitchen islands.

CabinetKnob Other Items2

And since we couldn’t bear to narrow their selection down for this week’s prize, the folks at CabinetKnob.com are graciously offering up an $100 gift card, so one lucky winner can snag anything their little heart desires from their entire site. Here are the deets:

  • PRIZE: $100 gift card towards any purchase at CabinetKnob.com
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FINISH ME!” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …share how you plan to finish the year off right. A big New Year’s Eve party? Finally tackling some of this year’s resolutions? Or, like us, a quiet dinner for two?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, December 30th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All 50 United States and Canada
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    Finish me! We are having some friends over for an evening of drinking, eating and games. Since we have two kids and my best friend is pregnant, finding a babysitter and going out was just too complicated so we decided to save money and stay home.

    We are going to a kitschy retro bowling alley for bowling and karaoke with friends. It should be fun, funny, and low-key.

    We are having a blow out “Done with 09” Party. This year has been catostropic I broke my hand, burned my arm on Christmas cooking rolls, sprained my ankle hiking, Rained and was unseasonable cold (40 degrees) at our June wedding and flooded my laundry/basement because I dumped soggy cat food in the utility sink (washer drains through the utility sink)amongst other crazy embarassing things.
    I am in the process of starting a kitchen remodel but not until 2010 rings in ;) the gift card would be perfect to replace my faded brass handles!!

    I’ve had an antique dresser that my mom has wanted for years. I never got around to painting it bc I lacked the courage. Now I have YHL to guide me. Selecting the appropriate knobs to finish this off would be PERFECT!

    I will finish painting my kitchen (a crazy marigold with black trim, white/grey cabinets.. It sounds ridiculous, but looks lovely) and then I have a show. Please send good juju my way, in the hopes that Eau Claire, WI finds me funny.

    Thanks so much! :)

    We always take a few moments this time of year to reflect on what we’ve accomplished in the past year, which helps motivate us to tackle our goals in the new year. NYE plans will be dinner and a party! :)
