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.

    Sadly, my kids’ bedroom is the darkest room in the house. They have wood paneled ceilings and only one window, which does not get a whole lot of light, no matter the time of the year.A beautiful Room and Board fixture would look amazing in between their beds!

    I have two old lamps waiting for me to rewire and fix a shade on top. One would be perfect in the soon-to-be nursery and the other in the reading corner of the living room.

    I’d brighten up our office, which only has a small window and small light fixture that’s flush with the ceiling and so boring. I’d love a colorful pendant in its place!

    Our combo dining room/living room is currently lit with a cheapo $29 builder’s-delight boring fixture that makes me convulse in disgust sometimes.

    One of these STUNNING pendants would TRANSFORM the room!

    AND it’s my BIRTHDAY on the 21st – would be the best gift to receive <3

    I’M BOARD! We just moved two weeks ago and could really use some light in the bedroom. It has no overhead light and the plug for the switch is on a wall that I can’t even stick a table against to put a small lamp. Not sure what the builders had in mind, but this would fix me right up!

    Our office! We took out the overhead light, which was about 100 years old and consisted of two bare bulbs (it lost its little glass shades and we couldn’t find good replacements). We installed a ceiling fan but decided to forgo a light kit for now. I wish we had just installed a new light!

    I would definitely choose to illuminate our bedroom, it is a pretty tiny room without much privacy outside our window. So our amount of natural light is minimal!

    I would love our dining area to have better lighting. It’s always either too bright or too dim, which leads us to eating in front of the TV, yet again. *fingers crossed*
