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’m board! Our formal living room lacks any type of light except for some floor lamps and since it is a room we’d love to entertain in more, I would love to see some overhead lighting in the space!

    I’m BOARD! Great giveaway. My living room looks like a bat cave. The windows are too small and the knotty pine paneling doesn’t help. We’re in the process of painting the panel, and mantel. I’ll be on the hunt for inexpensive table lamps very soon.

    I’M BOARD! My entire apartment is dim due to few windows and poor exposure to natural sunlight. One of these lights would certainly add some much needed and cheery light to my life!

    I’m Board and am redecorating my guest house which has a SWAG hanging lamp that looks like an upside down basket. AIIIEEE!!! It’s just hideous in every way. All my lamps were stylish at one time but now that the barrel shade is back, I’m desperate. Thanks.

    A lamp like this would go perfectly in the eat-in kitchen portion of our kitchen! It has a lamp in there that came with the house, but doesn’t match our taste exactly. These are fantastic pendant lamps!
