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!

    Probably the signature of my home is our SPRING GREEN walls! Everyone comments on them, and while it may be a bit overwhlemingly green, I love every square inch of them!

    They are very common, but I love our starburst clock, every time I look at it, it reminds me of a mirror my grandmother had many years ago.

    ” From Your House to Mine”

    I love your post and have been busy getting decorating ideas! Just this past weekend I made my own reed diffusers and initial art to hang above our own bed. Thanks for the ideas! Keep ’em coming! My favorite decoration in our house isn’t even up on the wall yet. I bought a large metal art piece in the shape of a tree to hang by our door, but I’m waiting to paint the walls before I hang it up.

    Wow, this is such a great giveaway! I’d say my signature item is a Saarinen womb chair that I won at a work event – I’m a sucker for classic chairs since I’m an interior design, and it’s a nice touch of modern for our eclectic home. :)

    My latest signature piece is an off-white owl utensil holder. I found it at a thrift store filled with ugly fake flowers, but it now looks perfect in my kitchen.

    Thanks!

    all very lovely items that we certainly can use in our home. The one thing in our house that is representative of me is my 100+ year old desk that my husband bought and refurbished for me as a Christmas present. Since then, we have not purchased any piece of furniture new because we would browse our local craigslist and refurbish anything we can get our hands into! I love it!

    From your house to mine! We’re in the process of setting up our first house, so we’re still working on that signature “piece.” But I guess a signature “theme” would be pieces from the resale shop that we refinish to make them ours.

    Thanks so much for the chance at some great items! Signature items would probably be beautifully framed children’s tempera paint artwork from first day of kindergarten (they are now in college) hanging in our dining room and bees…always Napoleon royal bees; hidden on frames, tables, linens, etc.

    These items need to go FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE! My fiance and I are getting married in September, and we are on the road to making our first “young house.” These items could help make a happy home.

    And our signature piece has to be the wooden chest handed down from my fiance’s grandfather.

    Oh if only “FROM YOUR HOUSE TO MINE!” That would be wonderful I love, love the clam shell bowl and have just been looking at sconces to flank a mirror for me. My signature items are always quirky. I have an adorable little whippet/greyhound ceramic piece(very 1920s)that I think is my signature item.

    We just purchased a home so I don’t have a signature piece yet. However, I tend to incorporate dots into the decor.
