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…

    From your house to mine! My signature item is definitely candles and funky candleholders, which can be found in every room of my apartment.

    Wow… how you have this many comments already in 2 minutes, I don’t know! We’re obsessed. :) My signature item would have to be my retro teal green chaise from EQ3. Everyone that sits in it claims it as “their chair” whenever they visit!

    AHHHH! this is the best giveaway ever! ALL of those are items I have been drooling over!

    I think I have several “signature” items in my home, one of them being a coffee table that I refinished… a $5 thrift store find, I stripped, sanded and stained it a pale translucent blue, then roughed up the edges a bit to make it a bit distressed. It’s solid wood with delicate carved details, and I love it! It sure would look great with a ceramic rhino… hint hint.

    Our signature item isn’t really an “item” but it’s definitely our signature–our rooftop deck! I have to say that our friends (distant and near) love it just as much as we do. Unfortunately at the moment it’s all ripped up (*GASP*) because of some roof leaks. BOO. And just when the sun decided to return to Chicago.

    Anyway–sob story is over–fingers crossed for some gorgeous bright, white ZG gifts!

    One of my favorite things are these little glass bud vases I picked up at Target, and right now they are on sale for $3 for a pack of 4! They are great to stick a flower or two in and spread all over the house, or across the mantel. Love them!

    My signature item is my framed oil print I got at a kiosk in the mall about 4 years ago. I bought it when I bought my first place and it’s been in the 3 places I’ve lived since then. I’m about ready to graduate to a different style but not sure that I will end up getting rid of it. It holds so many memories.

    FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE! Ahhh! I’ve been coveting each and every one of those items in your house! I will die and go to heaven one happy decorator if I win. :)

    I think my “signature” item would be birds – I have probably dozen birds figurines (ceramic, metal, etc) scattered around the house. And we have bunches of vintage-y airplane things for my hubby, a WWII plane addict (framed WWII plane adverts, old timey model planes, etc). I guess we like things that fly?!

    My signature item is a fancy, silver candlestick my old company gave away when they cleaned out their model home storage. I wired it up to become gorgeous lamp with a simple, yet elegant, white shade. In all of my moves, it’s one thing I can’t part with and it fits in everywhere I have lived.
