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.

    Our entire ground floor needs light: the hall & the living room , the kitchen and the dining area. We’ve just finished remodeling our upstairs, which took almost a year… I sure hope to see some light at the end of the tunnel soon :)

    I would give our bedroom more light. As it is, I frequently put on two different color shoes in the morning because they look so alike with our current very dim lighting.

    Our bedroom is lacking a lighting fixture. This results in a lot of late night stubbed toes.

    I’m board! Also bored, as many projects have ground to a halt thanks to impending childbirth. Somehow climbing a two-story ladder to paint my stairwell doesn’t sound as appealing as it did 8 months ago. But watching my hubby hang a gorgeous new light in said stairwell…lovely!

    I don’t know what room I would like to have some more light in. A lot of my rooms only have one tiny light or just lights in corners…..but I think the first room to get some additional brightness would be the living room, followed by the full bathroom upstairs, then my bedroom!
