Fab Freebie: Light Up A Room (& Board)

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***

We were so pumped when Room & Board wrote to us about doing a giveaway. Their furniture and accessories are practically the epitome of the clean-lined, comfortable-yet-sophisticated, natural-material-ed (?) aesthetic that we love. And while there’s plenty to ogle over on their site, one of their Galbraith & Paul pendant lights is officially up for grabs. There are a wide variety of graphic pattern-happy designs, so follow this link to hunt down your favorite (and we completely understand if you get sidetracked by all of the pillows while you’re there).

Room Board Pendants

Here are the deets:

  • PRIZE: One Galbraith & Paul pendant (priced up to $449) from Room & Board
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “I’M BOARD” and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … if you could pick any room in your house to magically be more illuminated and full of light, what space would that be? Your basement? A closet? A tiny half bathroom?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 13th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 48 contiguous United States
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

******************************

This giveaway’s random winner is… Liz Zankowski (who’s loved these pendants so long that she was excited just at the chance to win). Well, now you’ve won – congrats!

And everyone else can take advantage of Room & Board’s Designer Lighting Event. You can score 15% off Modernica, Flos and Pablo lighting now through Oct 19th.

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just take them on to reward our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Room & Board.

    It would be a tie between my basement and 2nd floor bathroom. Living in a condo/townhouse and only having windows on two sides of my house lend to some spaces not ever seeing the light of day! A fabulous new pendant would certainly cheer up either space!

It only has 1 window and a very small, outdated light fixture so I would love to put a new light in there!

    I’m Board! And my living room (where we all hang out) could really use some more light. Its a narrow room with one window and one windowed door, but due to where its facing gets very little natural light.

    My kitchen is in desperate need of illumination. There is literally a single lightbulb in the ceiling fan for the entire room. Luckily we have nice big windows for daytime, but I feel like I need to wear a headlamp at night to chop!

    Our dining room is in desperate need of some light. WE have an old ikea fixture with burned out lights and are too stubborn to buy expensive bulbs for a fixture we’ve been looking to replace. Fingers crossed!

    Our kitchen needs more light. Our current fixture is missing two of the three light bulbs, but it’s so ugly I can’t seem to find any motivation to install the other two…

    I’M BOARD and I would love more light in our storage closet. Without a bright light, it’s really tough to find anything. But I would use one of these beautiful lights in the kitchen, where we are light-less after my husband walked into our lighting fixture and shattered it.
