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.

    I would love to illuminate our new walk-in closet/dressing room. It’s a big space with one tiny window and could really use an amazing light fixture!

    I’M BOARD! I was just at Room & Board yesterday, getting my envy on with all the beautiful furnishings and accessories. I picked up their catalog which will be my new coffee table book for awhile, I have a feeling. The pendants are beautiful and my dining room would be more delicious than the food on the table with one of these pendants!

    It would be my home office, without a doubt. There is currently no overhead light, and once daylight savings kicks in this month, I don’t think my little desk lamp is going to do it.

    I’M BOARD! The lighting in my bathroom is terrible. It’s on the back side of the building under the shade of the roof. To make matters worse, we painted it a deep pink which only made it darker!

    Our dining room has plenty of light but the light fixture itself is hideous. I’ve been thinking about maybe spray painting it for awhile now, but replacing it with one of these awesome pendant lights would be even better!

    My bathroom is so dark and even though I’ve tried everything to make it bright and airy, I just get the dingy effect. Id love to trade out the landlords light fixture for something a whole lot nicer.

    I’M BORED! But not really…I teach middle school for goodness sake. There is NEVER a dull moment! Speaking of never dull….these lights are FANTASTIC! I would love to have one of these amazing hanging lamps to light up our bedroom. We’ve recently been redecorating it, and I know just where one such lamp would look PERECT! Plus, we only have one window in our tiny room, so a little extra light would be wonderful!
