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’d love to have more lamps in the bedroom, but honestly, the living room is really in need of some better lighting.

    I’m BOARD! My living room desperately needs lighting. It’s literally a cave with just one lamp for lighting. It could use a pop of color too, so these pendant lights are perfect!

    My apartment building is this charming 1910s brick ivy-covered construction… but the living room’s lighting fixture is so weak! We have two other lamps in there, but there just isn’t enough light. I would LOVE a pendant light in there to brighten it up!

    Definitely our living room. We have too floor lamps from Ikea lighting the large space. There are 2 really large windows that provide light during the day (and when it’s not cloudy–Seattle) but that leaves the night a little dim.

    not for lack of like for lack of style. My kitchen has an oak ceiling fan in the middle and a 3 light antique brass pendant uncentered over the table. Total mismatch.
