Fab Freebie: Gettin’ Jiggy With It

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

If you read this morning’s post about DIYing some wood shelves for the nursery, then it should come as no surprise that this week’s giveaway is from Kreg Tools. They’re giving one of you the chance to take home their Kreg Jig, so – no matter your skill level – you can feel like real woodworker.

Kreg Jig Materials

After all, I hardly consider myself to be a master craftsman, but after my latest shelf-building adventure I’m itching to tackle more wood-related projects. They really can be addicting…

Shelves Close

In addition to the Jig itself, this week’s winner will also be snagging a 675-piece Screw Kit, a Face Clamp and a set of project plans to get you started. So with all that at your disposal, I promise not to be jealous if you build something more complex than me. Here’s how to enter:

  • PRIZE: A Kreg Jig, Screw Kit, Face Clamp and set of project plans.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M GETTIN’ JIGGY” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us about your dream wood-related project. Is there something you’ve always wished you could build? Or a renovation that you dream of tackling with your own two hands?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 7th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: All 50 of the United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

    “I’M GETTIN’ JIGGY” :)
    Hey guys! That tool set looks awesome! I have a love for built-ins. I think they add a lot of character to a house and really want to build a built-in window seat/bookcase wall in our living room – and maybe even our bedroom!

    This one I really, really want. I’m in the sketching/teardown phase of creating a mudroom from a back entry/freezer(?) storage space. My plans include a bench, shoe rack and shelves.

    My dream project right now is expanding my deck and then building some benches that are more lounge like – to mimic a sectional couch on the deck (mostly so I can stretch out and read).

    I’ve been trying to figure out how to make boxes for a bench with little cubby holes. I want them to be sturdy (wood) and not flimsy like cardboard. I think I can do it, how hard can it be? I just need the tools (and maybe some fatherly assistance…)

    I have wanted to build a lift top coffee table so that when me and the boyfriend decide to eat in the family room we won’t have to lean over a low coffee table and make a mess. I think it would also have more storage space than our current one which would be a bonus.
