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!

    If I could pick a room to light up with one of these gorgeous lights, it would definitely have to be our great room. There aren’t any large lights in there, just a lamp and some recessed lighting in the back. It’s so dark at night, not suitable to do much of anything but watch TV. So this would be an awesome prize for us, then we could finally enjoy each others company without the glow of the TV! :)

    I’m Board! What a fabulous giveaway! I remember the first time I saw Room and Board was actually on Oprah. I requested the catalogue immediately. They have wonderful things.
    I have a very dark strange nook hallway area with very tall ceilings. Our house is 110 years old and this part of the house has lots of interesting detail but no light…

    I would love for our family room to have more light–the previous owners converted their garage into the family room so it only has one window to add natural light.

    I’M BOARD! OMG! I LOVE Galbraith & Paul! Their designs are exactly my style. If I could ensconce myself in G&P, I would. And they’re in Philly! (so am I)

    If I could totally redo the lighting in our house, I would lose the horrible drop ceiling tiles and office-park fluorescent light in our tiny bathroom. Yes, you read that right. It’s totally hideous! However, we rent a 150+ year-old house so, rewiring is pretty much out of the question and there’s only one outlet in the whole 4×7 room. The perfect spot for a G&P smokebrush medium orange pendant would be our kitchen or maybe our living room.

    Thanks, Room & Board!

    Love these lamps. And Room & Board. I would light up my pantry. There’s not a single light in there so it’s hard to find junk food at night when I need a snack. Probably a sign from God…
