Fab Freebie: From Our House To Yours

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

This giveaway can be summed up in two words (well, one’s technically just a letter): Z Gallerie.

The fine people at the big Z.G. have been very good to us (you may remember the kind birthday present they recently sent Sherry), and now they’re about to be very good to one of you. They’ve graciously offered up not one, not two, not even just three, but FOUR pieces of their collection to one lucky reader. And we can personally vouch for each item because (here’s our favorite part) they’re all accessories that we’ve purchased for our own home. Yep, consider it your own little Young House Love starter kit of sorts. It includes:

The Large Atlantis Clam Shell (which we use as a fruit bowl in our kitchen, priced at $45)…

Img 3365

…Sherry’s cherished white Ceramic Rhino (priced at $25)…

Rhino From Zgallerie Cerami

…and two, count ’em two, Lucerne Sconces (totalling $80):

Candle Sconce Detail

That’s $150 worth of our favorite items from Z Gallerie. We had to buy ’em all (actually, I think every single one was a birthday present for Sherry at some point) but one of you is going to get them all on the house. To enter just comment on this post with the words “FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE!” by Wednesday, May 6th at 8pm EST. And while you’re there, we’d love to hear what you might consider a “signature item” in your home. Maybe something that you think is “so you” or that your friends would say is perfectly representative of your style. This giveaway is only open to US residents and only one entry per e-mail address is permitted. We’ll announce the randomly selected winner on Thursday. Good luck…

Oh, and is anyone surprised that all of the items are white? Didn’t think so…

    Wow! I would be so excited to win any of these, much less all 4! I have been eyeing those sconces since I first saw them on your blog. As far as a signature item in my home, I’d have to say my ever changing mantle…it is a constant reflection of my favorite things!

    A lot of people have told me that the vintage painting of three Siamese cats that I found at a local thrift store (for under $5!) is “so me”! I love to hear it because it is by far my favorite piece of artwork in my home!

    I think my signature item is this really awesome abstract painting I got in europe – its got a very modern appeal but at the same time is very warm and inviting and works with lots of different decor. I absolutely love it!

    Cheeky but still chic items are so me – I have this white ceramic milk carton on my buffet table as a decoration. I love things like that – things that look great but are still fun and not so serious.

    I really like the way you use the shell – I might have to steal that idea! My “signature item” is my pair of Staffordshire Dogs, actually I should probably put that in quotations, because I’m pretty sure they’re not authentic. I found them in the back of an antique store for only $50 and since then have seen similar looking dogs for $1000! but who cares?! mine were both affordable and perfect for me!

    I think my signature item would be the mirror my dad made for me from a window taken out of the family cabin. You can see a photo of it here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/intermittent/3405422545/in/set-1824967/
    It has meaning, it’s upcycled, it’s on the rustic side, and combines natural wood and bright white– my perfect item!

    All of our friends, family and neighbors will tell you that the one thing about our house that sums us up entirely is our 30 ft flag pole in the front yard. People around here even use it as a landmark! We’re a long line of military family and having the flag pole (with the American flag and the POW flag) and the service star in our front window lets the world know who we are.

    Can my signature “item” be my two kitties!? My husband bought them for us (well, me) and they are very “us” (the girl is like me and the boy is like my husband, except they are brother and sister!)…they match our house, our lifestyle, our personalities, etc! :-)

    My signature piece is a mid-century modern sideboard that was my grandparents. I have always coveted it, even when I was really young. So when I got my own house my grandmother gave it to me!

    I would have to say our signature piece is the crazy grass mural we painted on the wall of our garage. We were inspired by the Alice in Wonderland level of the video game Kingdom Hearts ;)
    Thanks for the opportunity! I love ZG. We just got two of their tall green glass vases and two of their big cube-shaped crystal candle holders. Love it! <3

    FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE! These giveaways are so amazing! I would love to have any one of them. The signature item in my home is probably my book collection and the many different bookends I use to display them. I am an avid reader, and I love using creative, unique bookends to display the books I love.

    Our signature item is definitely our entertainment system. Not just the TV, I mean the whole set of 5 huge speakers to create just the right arrangement for music or movies. The mood lighting on dimmer, easily accessible side tables for drinks and snacks and the reclining couch…everything is about our own lifestyle.
