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…

    We have a couch that was my great-aunt’s. We had it recovered in black and white ticking stripe. It is one of my favorite pieces and a piece I hope people would say is so me. I love Z Gallerie and would love to have these pieces in our home.

    I have a rather large framed picture of the famous pic “Kissing the War Goodbye.” I am a hopeless romantic who loves a little twist of vintage.

    I have a white thing going on too right now, with lots of pops of orange. But signature piece–hmmm, does my cow-shaped creamer from Crate and Barrel count? Sure is cute.

    “FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE!” Oh, I have been coveting that seashell dish for some time. Our signature item is probably our dining room table. I am in loooooove with it. I really should sleep on it and get a little more use out of it. You know how it is when you never use your table!!

    I love the rhino!

    My signature items are armoires. I have several (from PB to antique) and I love them all. They’re not just for hiding TV’S. I use one for all office, printing, framing, and crafting supplies. One for sewing supplies, one for my kids toys. They really anchor rooms I think.

    Love your site. thanks for all the inspiration.

    Thanks for the great giveaway, Youngins (and Z Gallerie!)!

    The items that are most “us” are probably the black and white patterned armchairs (I think it looks like exaggerated tweed). We bought them a the same time as our chocolate microfiber couch and both the saleswoman and my new husband were dubious about them not “matching” and tried to persuade me into buying a set. I loved it and wen with my instinct; upon delivery, Paul said, “I love it – you knew it would look this good, didn’t you…?”

    My signature piece is probably laser cut paper artwork I picked up in Agra, India — I love it and can’t wait to hang in my my new blue office!! The white paper with laser cut moorish tile pattern will look great against my dark blue walls! The white rhino would look perfect with all my white accent pieces and trim in that room!!

    I also love my new mirrored buffet from Horchow… we just moved into our first place (a 1908 rowhouse) and am slowly starting to get settled!!

    Our signature piece is a large blown up photo of my husbands family and I rafting the Snake river in Jackson Hole WY. It totally defines our crazy lifestyle, and we framed it in a big chunky black frame that makes it even more pretty to look at.
